SV Kira – Claus Böhlje GER
MIT REINKE 10M BIS AUSTRALIEN
Dear Peter, by far the best and most valueable piece of equipment during my cruising days. The Pacific was stearing day and night whenever under sails. For the – due to our budget – spare engine hours we had a small tillerpilot.
The Pacific functioned perfectly right from the beginning after installing her within a couple of hours and leaving for a nonstop trip from NL to Iceland the very same evening.
For the new lady it will be a windpilot solution again at some point of time in the future when cruising days come again.
Unfortunatly keeping „my“ Pacific wasn t really an option due to selling Kira in Australia and being on the move on land for some more time back then…..otherwise she would be on the stern of Panacee right now
Claus Böhlje,

Hello Peter, It’s a Robert Clark’s designed Sloop, Transoceanic 27 feet. I just buyed from the original owner from 74, planning to live aboard and travel around the world… 
Talking about delivery, yes Peter, this is one of
Just today I enjoyed a lovely sailing day thanks to “Sebastian” the best skipper (cheap and silence) Windpilot I love it.
Lieber Peter, sehr viel dank fur deine mail. Wie du sagst Pendelarm verbogen, das hatte ich mich schon gedacht. Wir waren in Mindelo in hafen, mit hinterseite Zeevalk am pontoon …glucklich war ein fender dazwischen, sonst wäre der Schaden schlimm gewesen.
So sind wir in februar 2020 von mindelo nach suriname gesegelt in etwa 16 tagen, der windpilot hat gut functioniert, und ich weiss nun, dass ich mit dem Schaden weitersegeln kann.
