Chris,
The installation is off center 1/2" to port. I will e-mail George a picture
so he can post it.

I have a autohelm 2000 that works without any extentions or other wierd
attachments. I could photo it and send it. I also think a folding tiller
would
work fine the a-30 doesent have much weather helm so light tiller pressure
works fine I don't see why you couldn't shorten the tiller to give more room
by folding part of it up???

P.s. Christos if you are listening I am trying to mount my capehorn and it
looks like the backstay chainplate my be in the way how close is yours to
the
bottom of the transom and is it mounted in the center?  chris
