When we bought Sarah G one of the attractions was that she was listed as having an Aries windvane included though it did not appear in any of the publicity photos. Thankfully she does come with one but the previous owner had never fitted it. We are now in the process of restoring it to full working order.

They are a fascinating piece of equipment. According to the drawings on the website, they have only 80 odd moving parts. This is more or less true and definitely puts it firmly into the KISS principle piece of equipment.

We look forward to finding out how well it works in practise.
