    wooden rudder and dagger are in bad shape

    Last winter I tried to sand and varnish and sand and varnish and sand and varnish myself. Still look really bad. So before I cave and buy new ones, I wanted to ask you if you think it would make sense to find a carpenter to give it a go. Otherwise I'll buy new but not wood again--too much wear...

    Break in/ things to know about a new sunfish

    I've been dreaming of replacing ratchet block with a cleat. Is this something an old lady could do herself? If so would you please tell me where to buy a cleat, exactly what to buy and how to install it? [Back in the day there was always a cleat to lock the sheet. I asked for one when I bought...
