I had a custom matters pad (came with my new matress), and found the custom sheets didn't work well on my LF38.  I used a king fitted sheet folded and tucked under matters, and a queen flat sheet for top tucked under as far as possible. Used full size blankets.  Doug Mountjoy Rebecca Leah

Forgot – we did a few direct-to-quadrant hydraulic drive installs. We would get a big aluminum plate bolted across the quadrant to spread the load around. Make SURE of these things as well: 1. The hydraulics are not acting as a rudder stop. 2. The autopilot limits are set to not run

Chuck — thanks for the elaboration. BTW, for anyone thinking about going with a below-deck autopilot, those who have been on the list for a while know that I like the Octopus hydraulic linear drives from Canada. The biggest downside to these is the space you need to leave for the ram rod to

FWIW, I replaced the relatively small (and beat up) controls on the Edson pedestal on my current boat (1976 42 Custom) with new stainless handles from one of those discount marine hardware outlets. We had to do some adjusting to get them to work correctly (they were a little too long based on

Fred you are correct. There are several boats that prohibit the use of a dedicated autopilot tiller arm and the 38 Landfall is one of them.As you mention, the solution is to direct mount the ram to radial drive wheel with sufficient reinforcement at the attachment point. That mean beefing
