Hi Norm, I have a TP10 on CornDog which I've used sparingly for the last two seasons. It's a bare bones unit, but it basically get's the job done. I don't think it holds a course as well as it should when sailing, but it works very well during those long motoring stretches. I find I don't use it for short periods (such as reefing, etc.) because it is a little awkward to connect and disconnect. I use a simple tiller bungy for those times. It also concerns me that in an emergency situation it does not have a manual override capability. You have to either disconnect it, or operate it with the directional buttons which are slow. I would like to be able to just grab the tiller and move it if I need to, but I don't know how that could be designed.
