TEN YEARS SAILING AT SOUTH COAST WESTERN AUSTRALIA

Hi Peter,it is about ten years ago since I purchased my windpilot from you, perhaps you recall some discussion whether the light model would be adequate as my boat is longer than the recommendation however it is a traditional shape with long keel so tracks easily.
The other discussion was how to attach it to my small angled transom.
The answer to the first point is that it steers my boat superbly in all conditions and has transformed my cruising pleasure.
To the second ,as you can see and a bit more clearly in another video I will send ,I strengthened my pushpit and made a wooden mount attached by 4 bolts to the pushpit to which the windpilot is attached. When I am not cruising I just remove the wooden mount and windpilot. This video is in the recherché archipelago south coast Western Australia.

Liebe Peter, du wirst dich vermutlich nicht mehr erinnern bei deinen vielen Kontakten zu Seglern. Du hattest uns mal vor einigen Jahren bei der Bootssuche geholfen und später natürlich auch uns beim Umgang mit der Windpilot unterstützt. Weiterlesen →

FROM ST. HELENA TO BRAZIL DUE TO CORONA

Hi Peter, the repair of our Windpilot in St. Helena worked fine during our trip to Brazil where we are now due to the Cornona situation.
We have been sailing around the world and one of the most reliable things we have is a windpilot Pacific plus that is helping us over all oceans, we also have raymarine autopilot that we use only for help if we do a day sailing. Pacific plus is quiet and take no power and fell more reliable. We have lots of time sailing together with friends that only have an electronic autopilot that have failed and they have to hand steer. And if we need support, Peter is always there for a quick response.
Best Regards Tommy and Helene Larsson from Bonnie af Stockholm
