    Non-Racing Sunfish Events

    Thanks Mr O - The reason I brought this up is that as we know (1) the great majority of Class members don't actually race in Regionals or the other member-only racing events, and (2) there is a lot more Sunfish activity and many more dedicated and proficient Sunfish sailors than there are...

    Non-Racing Sunfish Events

    Identifying age of a Sunfish?

    I'm trying to identify the age of an old Sunfish hull. There are no serial numbers anywhere that I can find (no deck plate, etc), no numbers anywhere on the hull. It's pre-AMF Alcort, and guesses I've gotten so have been in the '62 to '64 range, or maybe earlier. Some specific features...
