They rock, I bought two top spreaders from them they were delivered and
painted in three days (150.00). I wish I would have talked to them
before I had my mast and boom stripped and painted I could have ordered
three sets from them painted and delivered vs the cost of a local yard.
I could have had a three masted scooner 38. They now have two designs
for masts for the 38.

Steve,
The best tip for sail trim is to pick up the North Sails book on
sail trim. It is the best and not expensive. You can get it on their web
site. One C-38 sail trim tip is to pay particular attention to your main
sheet traveler setting. As the helm loads up going to weather and the
boat starts to heel excessively, lower the traveler. Off the wind, while
you can go DDW wing & wing, it is often faster to reach up a bit.
A good GPS will give you VMG and the trick is to maximize that. On my
GPS at the helm I have boat speed, VMG, track and bearing to the mark.It
seems to work for us. Joe Launie, Macavity, Commodore

Charles,
You certainly have had a long trek. When you get to Door County you
will be close to Peshtigo, Wisconsin. That is the site of the greatest
forest fire in history in 1871. You get get the story at
www.peshtigofire.info. Do not read this late at night, it is a real
horror story. The survivors accounts shown in the newspapers of the day
are especially spectacular. Joe Launie,,Macavity, Commodore

Russ is right, it is Lafriel and I believe they are still in business in
California. A quick call to Catalina should answer this.

Hi Larry,
The C38 masts were made by Lefiell. If you`re going to contact them, ask
for
Don. He has a C38 and he would know exactly what you will be talking
about!
