Joe,
Check Wind Line Sails How-To section http://www.windline.net/index.html , Sunfish Sailor Yahoo http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sunfish_sailor/. Both have good info on getting your SF dried out. Install a couple of ports, dump any standing water, and get air moving through the hull are the basics. TIME is the big thing here, it will take time to get things dried out (like all summer and maybe the winter if you can store you fish inside). If every thing else is ok (no leaks, sail, boom and mast ok, rudder, daggerboard ok) go a head and sail. OK you may be going a little slower, but you will still be out there. After your SF is dry, you will appriciate the weight reduction. Good Luck.
