The toothed wheel on my Windpilot deteriorated after decades of UV exposure, so I designed a replacement.

A Windpilot (TM) is a mechanical autopilot for sailboats. The toothed wheel (part #260) on my Windpilot Pacific Plus deteriorated after decades of UV exposure, so I designed a replacement. It would fit on the Windpilot Pacific as well. I printed mine with PETG.
So far I do not have any long term data of how this would hold up,but the stresses on this part are not very big, it is used to adjust the wind angle. As it is advised by the manufacturer, you should never carry your Windpilot by holding the windvane arm (even with the original part fitted).This part has two Atlantic crossings under its belt now and holds up fine. Only miniscule wear on the teeth, so yes, carry a spare but do not worry too much. It can easily handle a couple more ocean crossings.
