Main features of Y&B
Y&B is the third system from Mister Vee that is made primarily from plastics. Where possible, even more stainless steel has been replaced with suitable plastics. This has resulted in the lightest full size self steering system ever achieved, even slightly lighter than Mr. Vane in similar configuration!

- New high efficiency pendulum rudder made from high density foam and carbon fibre. This rudder and all manufacturing techniques were developed in house with generous support from renowned hydrodynamicist Piet van Oossanen. The pendulum rudder is Y&B's heaviest single part and it floats!
- Affordable customisation options
- Just one size, suitable for small boats due to light weight and larger boats due to clever design
- System removable from transom without tools
- Low and high path for steering lines (more on this on the next page)
