[Alberg30] Wheel Advantages

In my humble opinion, no.

I have a tiller autohelm. It works.

Singlehanding with a tiller is fine.

Really long distance autohelming is better with a windvane anyway.

You asked for an objective opinion. You should take mine as subjective.

Somebody out there surely loves a wheel. It's just not me.
