A wind powered self-steering gear for a sailing boat comprising a wind vane and rudder with means to adjust the vessel's heading while under way using a handwheel connected to a reduction gear train and a differential gear train. The steering gear compromises a wind vane (1, figure 10) and shaft that is internally attached to bearings contained within a hollow rudder. The connection between the vane and rudder comprises a differential bevel gear (10, figure 16) consisting of multiple pinions mounted on a pinion gear carrier (11, figure 10) and having a ratio of 1:0:-1. The hand wheel connection comprises a cycloidal gear train that acts on differential gear train pinion carrier and the rudder
