My father has always been quite the sailor. He's had a few Hobie 16's, a Butterfly, and a couple years ago stumbled on this bargain of a Sunfish. I'm 21 and never really had an interest. This week we finally got the Sunfish on the car and I took it for a spin this evening. I had a blast! The wind was calm, but perfect for my first time. Definitely looking forward to going again tomorrow during the day!
Of course, with what we paid for it, it needs some work, which I might enjoy doing this winter. I embarrassingly don't even know what YEAR it is. I'll find out and report back, haha. I'm sure I'll be around asking questions, but my first question is, why does my lower boom sit so low? There are a few other Sunfish on the lake and they have much more room under that thing. We set it up as it came. Is the mast tied too high on the upper boom? Thanks!
