If I do say so myself.

Looks like it needs a reasonable amount of wind to actual foil but looks nice
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

In the past past ive had good success with a rope tied from one side of the cockpit, wrapped around the tiller once then tied off on the other side. This is easy to put on and off, holds the tiller firmly when required yet not so firmly that you can't make it move should you need to. You cant beat a descent auto helm though it does make single handed sailing much less stressful

Thanks for the info, I wondered how you did it without your weight changing the boat's direction! I've tried the shock-cord-round-the-tiller method on my Limbo which works to a degree but as the boat is quite light anyway it means I'm limited to quick dashes forward and certainly not enough time to get a spinnaker up.
