Thanks, I just wanted a toy and to enjoy something while I was in Texas for the weekends. Hopefully I'll enjoy it this week and next time I'm in Texas. I may look into a wire traveler, that's just what was on it when I bought it, and for now, I'll use it until I get more funds. I was...

That's awesome, well I'm from Kokomo IN, so I'll probably take it to Lake Freeman or Mississinewa Resevoir. Which the Resevoir is by far my favorite place. I haven't been to Monroe lake in at least 10 years. Well good luck to you!

While I understand your view point, I did not deminish the value of my boat, I only bought it for $150 with the trailer. And while it may not be the prettiest thing, I could care less, I only wanted a recreational boat to learn how to sail on. And I wish I could've done a better job, and my...

I ended up using Interlux - Brightside Polyurethane, it took one quart to primer everything with one coat, used it all up pretty much. Took a quart to do the bottom and cockpit. I did two coats on the bottom and no paint left over. However, on the top, I put two coats and still have around...

Well, it's been a bit since I've been on here, I've even taken it out today, but I was alone so no pics. Plus it was raining and really windy, I was at Clear lake near Kema Texas for those of you that are familiar. And it opens to the gulf, so the hurricane weather made it fun. :D I had...

Just wondering, has anyone ever tried one of these, I'm almost tempted to use this myself since I can get it for under $10...

Looks like a steal to me! I wonder if he'll ship?

I would also like to second that you shouldn't use wikipedia as the information is incorrect. The civil war wasn't about slavery. There's more to it than that. And I'm not going to get into it, but either way, people who get offended by the confederate flag are narrow minded.

Honestly, I don't see why so many people find it offensive, it's a part of history and the flag of the south!

I still need to get a new bailer. Why do they have to be soo expensive though.

That sucks, looks like the words are from wikipedia.

I'm jealous, wish I could find a free sunfish.

I have a 67 fish, but it's in no condition for show. I'm about to put a new coat of paint on it though. I'd loved to see some pics of the show in August.

Sounds like a great time!
