Greetings,
I have just been given a 1970 prototype trimaran/ hydrofoil. Whereas I
intend to eventually R/C it currently it has a beautifully engineered vane
steering mechanism. Anyone have the first clue how to use this?

Check our Web page: www.swcp.com/usvmyg I presume from your address
that you are in the UK; if so, I can give you some contacts. I would
also very much like to see pictures of the boat and the vane gear.
