Feel your pain:

just in after a five hour outing on the SF Bay. Light 10 knot winds and two foot waves with a tide reverse at 1300. Total good time. used new auto tiller I was skeptical of it at first but it really holds the heading assigned better than I do. Bilges no longer leak after recaulking the rudder pintles. Simrad TP10 works well under four foot swells the piston is a little noisy imho; better at coming about than jibing but a useful tool nonetheless. Essentially I'm a passenger in my own remote control boat!
