OVNI 32 AND PACIFIC – A PERFECT COUPLE
Hi Peter, just a quick note, it’s working perfect now! I didn’t change the set-up yet with a crossbar (which we have onboard). It doesn’t seems necessary yet. Off course the wheel coupling is the other way round, I might have done that wrong just for the photos I send you but also on one of the test runs. Oops.
The big difference is the cleaning. It operates so smooth now. It’s responding so much faster and better now. Especially in lighter winds.
Very happy with this! Thank you for your advice and clear instructions.
Best, Guus
Hello Peter, greetings from Finnland. I have owned pacific windpilot 15 years and it has been working absolutly well. There is nothing like pacific.
Good day Peter, Really like the gear after 1500 miles of sailing since I got it. I have had the boat in Alaska, New England, the Pacific Northwest, a solo to Hawaii (2014 Singlehanded Transpacific Race), and up and down the California coast. The boat is a Capri 25 that has been extensively rebuilt and strengthened over the two decades I have owned her.
The name Jack comes from the name of my father’s lead dog, Jack the Giant Killer, while he was with the Second Byrd Expedition to the Antarctic. I had an Hasler fitted in earlier times, quite a big unit for my small seatoy. The Pacific Light has been fitted by use of a small turning device to accomodate the use of the AB engine easily.
Servus Peter, wir sind gerade auf dem Weg von Ischia nach Terracina, True Wind ca 5 knt unter Groß und Genacker. Der windige Gustav steuert das Boot excellent! Wir haben ein wenig Zeit gebraucht, bis wir ihn überzeugen konnten, nach unserem Willen zu segeln, aber jetzt verstehen wir uns prächtig. Besonders meine bessere Hälfte kommt als Skipperin hervorragend mit ihm zurecht.
Wenn ein Schweizer aus Wädenswil, eine Kooperation mit einem Mann betreibt, der in Eisen kann, ist Augenwischen angesagt. Thomas Arnold von Eisenart in Köln hat sich mit dem Eigner eine erstaunliche Lösung ausgedacht. Die Bilder sprechen Bände. Kontakt: Thomas Arnold 
Heute erhalte ich von Patrick, der dort vor Anker liegt, den folgenden Hilferuf:
Hier eine Wunsch Liste:
Sorry für schlechte Fotos, aber Iridium ist geizig.
Mit an Bord der Jeanneau Sun Legende 41 eine Windpilot Heckverzierung aus dem Jahre 1998, die bereits den Kieler Voreigner der Jeanneau Sun Legende 41 als Schlafpille über die Ozeane gesegelt hat. Mein damaliges Treffen an Bord in Las Palmas im Jahre 2000 bleibt unvergessen. 
Dear Peter, After 2 years of cruising and crossing the Atlantic both ways, we are now back in our home country, Norway. Just wanted to let you know that we have been very happy with our Windpilot Pacific MF3. It has been our preferred choice for self-steering and gets our recommendation.
We are preparing to sell the boat, and got an inquiry from a person that wanted to buy the windpilot. 
Good morning Peter, for your informationI have attached some images of a small modification I have made to your excellent Windpilot. I was finding the windvane adjustment with the thin red cord rather fiddly and did not make tacking an easy thing. I used to hang off the end of the boat and turn the worm spindle by hand.
