In addition, Seabags will take your old, unused sail and turn them into bags and give you a free bag for each sail donated. I have several Seabags now through this mechanism and love them. They even came to my house to pick up the old sails. Dave On Oct 10, 2013, at 10:32 AM, Andrew Burton

Hi, Jim -- welcome to the list. I sail a close relative of the 38, a '79 Landfall 38; often single-handed. I've run all the lines back to the cockpit, and with a decent wheelpilot, the boat is easy to single-hand. And I realize the 38 is not the LF38, but the LF38 is one of the stiffest

Umm, yeah, what they said. Got me an LF38. The first thing I did with this boat was set the rig up for single handing. With a few exceptions, I've single handed it for 12 years. Even with passenger-type crew, you're single handing. If you're on watch alone at night, you're single handing.
