Owned since 2003. We had a decent 2008 season racing The Factor. First overall for the summer. Our PHRF rating is 179 which is suppose to be 10% slower than ocean racing. The hardest boat to beat in our fleet is an S2 7.9 it goes like stink in light air but can be beat in heavy air 12 knots +. |

VooDoo sank in 2003 during tropical Storm Bill. This boat had won a lot of silver on Lake Pontchatrain and along the Gulf coast for 25 years. In 1991 VooDoo won the 110 mile Gulfport to Pensacola race finishing ahead of over 100 boats on corrected time. She will be missed by all except those you had to sail against her.

Original owner repurchased in winter 2000. I first owned the boat (built 1979) about six years, racing exclusively in Lake St. Clair (part of the Great Lakes outside of Detroit) and in Lake Huron. Thereafter I sold it to someone who sailed it in Lake Huron. He, in turn, sold it to someone who kept it in the greater Detroit area. Now I have it back in Lake St. Clair. |

I've owned two Lindenberg 26's and have been sailing SAVAGE since 1985. Wouldn't give her up. A great looking boat that has had the best care of all L26's (2002 the topsides were Awlgriped, put in new windows and teak).
