Topic: Monitor Wind Vane Set-up

Recently acquired a 1985 Contessa with a Monitor wind vane that has not been used in many years. Any suggestions/pictures for setting up the airvane course control line (3.6 in the Monitor Manual) would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, and welcome to the board.

Which Contessa did you pick up?

I don't have any information on the Monitor myself, but several of our board members have them, and I am sure they will be along shortly to help out.

Oh man, that's a great boat. I seriously considered buying her myself. You're going to love her - a fantastic boat.

I haven't had a boat in quite some time. I hope to remedy that at some point soon.

Thank you very much. Easy set-up. I can't wait to try it in the spring.
