"The best self-steering solution is probably a windvane gear. They
have to be custom made for most boats, though, so buying a commercial
vane would cost almost as much as my entire boat did. Building a
windvane yourself is possible, but that usually requires welding and
access to a machine shop. The alternative self-steering systems can be
just as reliable, and they also help to cultivate an enhanced
understanding of sail trim, sail balance, and the forces that are at
work as your boat moves through the water.

Heres something that came out of either Lat.38 or Sail Anarchy forums:

"My favorite came from Sail Mag. about Wayne, a bareboater who went
to shore with the crew and was not into drinking the night away.
Decided to go back to the boat but with only one dink, he decides to
swim. Leaves his clothes in the dink so that the crew will know that
he was there and put 2+2 together.

Swims to his boat, goes down the stairs, turns on the light, and
realizes he is on the wrong charter boat. "
