<DIV><FONT size=1>1. has anyone had any experience with using a tillerpilot
1800 on an A30? One came with my boat and even after having made necessary
adjustments, its performance is still mixed. It does not seem strong enough to
hold the boatg on an off the wind course. the tillerpilot seems to like going
to weather. Any thoughts?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=1>2. I notice that the hull on my boat flexes when I hit a
wave sometimes. Is this normal? I am not sure it is consistent with the A30's
reputation as a s olidly built boat. Am I missing something or do I need
to reshape my thinking on this
matter?</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><BR></BODY></HTML>
