Drilling Mamma Mia deck... to install ST1000 Tiller Pilot!



Above a frame from The video with the full work done to install the St1000 Plus on Mamma Mia, in the most scaring moment of my sailing life at YCC: Drilling holes on the deck of the boat!
The full video shows all the steps done,  I have not recorded the epoxy part, and the video of the test done after, but if you have no time to see the 12 minutes video, you can appreciate some pictures of the key moments:





Here the tiller pilot mechanically installed, before the electrical connection: 



Me start working on the electrical panel, see the video for all the explanation!


And the electrical panel 



Me clearly happy after the installation, before the boat cleaning




Here the first autopilot test during a rainy evening after the cancelled regatta training. Thank to my crew to their motivation to go out just for the first test.



Next step, outing with with full test and calibration!
