    Hi all, 

    I have the opportunity to buy a Fleming Major for cheap. I was wondering if anyone can send me photos of one on a Westsail. If I mount it to the boomkin, I'm not sure the vane will clear the pushpit. Also, not sure it will reach water without extension. Should I just use sheet to tilller?

    I believe that Ben Thomas who has W32 “Little Wing” in Australia has a Fleming wind vane. You can find him here in the owner section. Or on his YouTube channel “Little Wing”
