Can anyone that has tried the 360 drive comment on the amount of hand fatigue you get when using the hand control for the 360 drive? I'm concerned that the resistance of two mirage fins in the water would cause considerable resistance and effort to turn the handle.

It is not difficult to rotate the MD 360. There is a little resistance but not much. It also stays in position until you change it -- you don't have to hold it. On the other hand, you can steer the boat pretty well by centering the rudder and just rotating the MD 360. There will be situations when you'll want to do that, especially at lower speeds where the rudder doesn't have as much authority. The 360 can maneuver the boat very effectively! 8)

Yes my impression is similar. Extremely well designed. No fatigue.

+2! No fatigue, overall I'm only turning/maneuvering a small percentage of the day. Very easy to turn.
