I do a fair amount of single hand day sailing on my '83 H31. Inevitably I will have to go forward to free a jib sheet or to put out my fenders prior to docking. The nightmare is me falling overboard and watching the boat sail off with my four legged first mate into the Houston Ship Channel. She is very smart and a great hunting dog, but we have yet to master her steering the boat. We have a Raymarine EV100 wheel pilot. Is there a way to have your boat's auto pilot turn off or get it to hardcover the wheel if you fall over board? Or has some one figured some clever way to "rig" that? Staying on board is of course the primary plan and I try to be very careful to do so. I was just wondering.
