I've posted before about using a tiller tamer on Arwen. I used the design from the Dinghy Cruising Association and if you look back through the list of posts on the right hand side you will find several references.
Robert, another navigator builder has also been using a tiller tamer and he has posted some useful video clips on you tube. You can see these below:

Robert's video clips show the tiller being used on different points of sail. He was sailing in 6 - 14 knots on a 30 mile round trip which lasted some 5.5 hrs with an average speed of 4.5 kts.
These are really useful videos, showing a well balanced and well crafted boat. my congratulations and thanks to Robert for taking the trouble to create and post them
