Is anyone seeing general delays getting parts for Seitech Dollys (specifically Sunfish)? I've had an order in with APS for a month for a bracket and can't get the item shipped. I'm not getting info. from APS as to why the delay, so I was curious if others are experiencing this?

I just noticed that manufacturer is not supplying boats for Worlds. When was the last time that happened? Just curious. Is current manufacturer providing other types of support for Sunfish worlds? Do they provide boats for their other class (Laser,etc... ) worlds?

Any favorites (and reasons) for a light air mainsheet. I've used a Marlow 1/4" Polypropylene (100%)and need to replace it. It seems to work well. Thanks

We would all love to hear some news/photos from the worlds if possible.

Someone please post some preliminary results/news tonite, thanks.

What's the name of a good knot to make loop used for tensioning the halyard before its cleated? Not to tie it to the upper spar, but a loop many folks use to make a purchase system as it descends the mast. It's not a standard slipknot, but one thats eaiser to untie after its been under a good...

Anyone know where to find the final results for the recent Sunfish Regionals held in Sarasota? Or where they will be posted when available?

Can someone give me a simple answer to the difference if any. Also, what's the timeline for these ropes? First Spectra , then Dyneema 60, then 75 , then 78, etc...? Any reason to buy Spectra/Spectron if it's available? Seems to me that if the cost is comparable, then one would always...

While racing recently, the bronze bolt that holds the two pieces of the gooseneck together came off. If you can imagine a Sunfish with a square-rigged sail(bottom spar with half the sail on either side), thats what it looked like. Even more amzing was that the bolt fell onto the deck, and I was...

Just an fyi to all that there's an article in this months (March) Sailing World magazine about this past 2006 Sunfish Worlds.

Anyone have any ideas if this is posted anywhere(DIYC,Tampa) on-line, or when it might be? Thanks

A recent thread about sail repair brought up a question about sail storage (short/medium term). I would be interested in any tips/techniques that anyone would like to volunteer about storing one's sail (on the spars). I typically store my sail in a canvas(not waterproof) sail cover. After...

I know they just finished, but would soomone post a message here when you see that the results are available on-line (at Sunfish class site? Florida regional site? Davis Island YC site?) Gracias, from One who couldn't attend
