Re: Stus-List Upsizing boats

Danny — +1 on Rick Brass’ suggestion of the Landfall 38. But I’m kinda biased… :^) And I can speak from experience that they’ll sail nearly as well as a straight 38. The one Rick gave the link to would need new cushions, and definitely new electronics (I know where you can get those…), but

If this is “Walkie” (his nickname), I can personally vouch for him — he’s by far the best diesel guy on western Lake Superior. He’s worked on my boat, as well as those of many people I know. Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- Bayfield, WI On Sep 8, 2014, at 8:04 A

Nate — Walkie Holzer’s the only guy to use for diesel engines. I wouldn’t leave that to a general surveyor. Try him at 715-209-3550. For general survey, I’d use Phil Peterson in Bayfield; but only as a buyer, not as a seller. He finds some nitpicky stuff that can really spook a buyer, especi

Stus-List Lake Superior storm

There’s currently a nasty low passing over Lake Superior; buoy data from two hours ago lists wave height at 14.8 feet with an average period of 7.1 seconds. I keep saying Lake Superior is more like the ocean than a lake; I guess this should help prove that. I’m just glad I’m not out in it... T

Re: Stus-List Landfall 38

To the original question: I’ve owned my LF38 for about ten years now, and while I don’t race (officially…), I’ve been very happy with the sailing abilities of my boat. She points very well, even with old sails, and can be a very comfortable, fast boat even when the sea conditions deteriorate.

Re: Stus-List suspect autopilot

Kim — it sounds like the drive motor may have frozen up; when you try to engage it, it draws too much current and pops the breaker. If you disconnect the drive from the control head, you should be able to make it turn by applying 12 volts across the two leads; the direction it turns will be det

I still stand by Trojan batteries, especially their 6V golf-cart batteries. I’ve put nothing but these in my boat (and others, including a massive house bank of twelve golf-cart batteries in a big cruiser — over 1300 amp-hours...) and they always perform well and last a very long time with a pr
