Scratch that i did the reading and i found out that it easiest to install one or two deck plates to take a look around inside. Thanks for your insight dan Jon

i tried to delete an old post but it wont let me , so here it is

Is this something that you would recomend me to do, with an older fish? Just to check out how well its held up over the years. I do have a through crack in the bottom of the hull right below the foot well but it dosent pass through to the foot well. I do understand from my research thus far i...

Is this something that you would recomend me to do, with an older fish? Just to check out how well its held up. I do have a through crack in the bottom of the hull right below the foot well. I do understand from my research thus far i can do a blind fiberglass patch. But would you suggest it?

Alright curouscity is getting the best of me with this question. Ive heard that its not such a good idea to pull the deck from the hull, why is it such a forbidden task? If it is how else are yo supposed to inpect between these two pieces? Ive got an older sunny around late 60's to early 70's so...

Ive been told that some of the old hardware was Bronze im not sure if thats true though, Anybody like to fill the both of us in? Jonathon

Im interested in hearing more about this adventure. I always wondered why people strey from seperating the deck from the hull? As far as i know it could be some simple reason. But im new at the sailing game. Looking to learn from others mistakes. Jonathon

Where would you find the serial number? I have a late 60's early 70's sunfish and am interested in finding the plate and exact age of her. Jonathon

Yeah, the second option is what i was thinking. But i may just use gelcoat instead of paint. Im going to sand and get a pro to regel deck and hull. Hopefully it will turn out nice. I think im pretty much going to flip it, where the color is on the hull and the white is on the deck. Thanks for...

Awww really? Thats not good news. Where can i find the sticker strips? And will they hold up to the water?

That could work. Its only $20.00 for five feet. It is pricey but not that bad. Ill try it though. Thanks

Alright here is another weird question. Where can i find new sunfish Logos and decals at for my restoration? Also stripings? Jonathon

Why is that?

Thanks dan

Also this may sound like a dumb question but, Is it possible to Dry clean your sail? or is there a type of cleaner that i can was it in the clothes wash with? Jonathon
