and yes i have a pedestal and a tiller i modified the tiller it is short enough to connect the tiller pilot to with the pedestal in place but very little room for legs as i have the shortened tiller arm off to starboard at about a 45 degree to the original amidship position and it works great i can still work the
sails and
furling system with the tiller pilot on and i had a custom 11 inch wheel so i can walk around the pedestal without climbing over the cockpit seats and i lash my big wheel out of the way so if i wanna sail for a lengthy trip i can do so with the larger wheels out tiring still trying to set every thing up so its really really fluid motions though oh i have a windmill
mast in the aft cockpit also i am considering adding another
mast on the starboard side so i can move my
radar of the stern rail mount onto the mast then the roof of my pilot house can tie both masts together and they can support the roof for the pilot house and the trolling cockpit and then remove the aft rail and
kicker so i can
fish astern with out being encumbered
