We just bought a used sunfish (1970's?) for our family and I have a question about the bridle. We took it out for the first time today. I apologize if the question has been answered before (couldn't find it on the forum) and also for my inexperience.
1) The sunfish has a 3 loop bridle. The endloops that are attached to the eyestraps do not seem to be secure... the wire comes out of the fitting and the loop comes undone. does that mean that we need a new bridle? Looking at it more closely, I think it might be a "homemade" bridle - as far as I can tell, the middle loop is made from electrical tape; electrical tape is also used to secure the wire at the two end loops.
thanks in advance!
