    Broken mast - what now?

    Had a little dumb accident I don't want to go into details about - but the result is the mast on my C-Lark 14 is broken about 2' from the top. It's a clean break, and hanging on by one side. Can this be welded - or am I looking at a new mast? If a new mast is required, what are my options - or...

    C-Lark 14 help?

    Hi. I just acquired a C-Lark 14. It looks complete and the hull and sails are in good shape. Needs a little work on the wood parts, and some minor odds&ends. Does anybody know of a source for info about rigging this sailboat? I have only sailed a Snark and a Sunfish up 'til now, so my...

    Modify dagger board, or sell it?

    Hello again.

    A couple years ago, I picked up a damaged '68 Sunfish for next to nothing at a yard sale. I posted here about it and received some good advice about fixing it up to usable condition. The deeper I got into it, the more work it appeared to be - and that project stalled before I got any...

    What size cut for inspection ports?

    Hi, all. I was in here last fall with questions about restoring a hull I acquired on the cheap, and I got very good responses. Before I could get started with the repairs, a friend brought up a concern about mold (fungus) contamination in the hull, and suggested that without killing off all...

    First question...

    My "freefish" is a '64. It looks as old as it is. Someone (previous owner) did what looks like a pretty good patch job on some major hull damage (fiberglass cloth & resin - looks to be holding well), but it needs refinished. BTW, the hull weighed in at about 125lbs. Before I put this boat...

    Greetings! (aka, what have I done?)

    Greetings from the mountain west - where relatively few Sunfish are seen! This is my first post here, so forgive my ignorance, which I am sure will show... About 30 years ago, a couple of Jr. high school teachers thought it would be fun to teach a bunch of us kids to sail. They had at their...
