No idea who is selling this as it popped up on my FB page. £500 stated in FB advert. Posted here as some have expressed interest in buying wind vane steering systems.

Aries Windvane for Sale Oban Area
What's that? Dunno! Should we be worried about that? Dunno! How? Ah dunno!
Re: Aries Windvane for Sale Oban Area
Aries is a solid choice reliable and well-regarded in the sailing community. I’ve seen them in action, and they do a great job holding course even in rougher conditions. The £500 price seems fair, especially if it's in decent shape. Just a heads-up: it's always good to ask for detailed photos or check it out in person if you're nearby, given the potential wear and tear on used gear. Anyone in the Oban area might find it a great opportunity!

Re: Aries Windvane for Sale Oban Area
the guy posting as almost no Facebook profile/history which is a warning sign of it being a scam. As its advertised as in Oban, then that'd definitely be a personal inspection/visit before parting with cash
