How did you detach the centerboard trunk? Was there any drama putting things back together? I need to do the same thing on a boat of the same color.

Does anyone know where to get the original green gelcoat? My boat is from the early 2000s. It is the dark, forest green. I'd like to get the correct white as well. Thanks

Thanks very much!

My Hull# does not quite align with the format I have found in the resources section of this forum. ZFS - Performance Sailcraft makes sense as the warnings on the spars were in English and French. 86213 is the correct original sail number as evidenced by the picture of my Mom sailing the boat in...

Do you know which size RWO ports you used? Thank you.

I am wondering what diameter those ports are and if 6" ports will fit next to the daggerboard well without issue. Thanks!

This is excellent input! Thank you!

Hello, After years of neglect, I dragged my boat out and went over it this week. I am doing my first race in nearly 10 years tomorrow. My boat does not have the modern vang and outhaul setup. She is a stock 1980 boat. I remember a double purchase trick on the downhaul. Any and all other boat...

There are 13 Sunfish currently registered with more expected. The organizer has set up a section of the website under the "more" heading where people can offer to loan a boat, or find a boat to borrow.

As of now, there are 3 different Sunfish classes: Racing, Recreational, and Tandem. You can pick which class you would like to be a part of. The Recreational fleet is open to any normal Sunfish rig and the Tandem class is for boat with two people on board. There are at least 3 more local guys...

Thank you. That thread was very useful.

Thanks. That is all really good advice. Are there any other somewhat simple, last minute boat prep tips that you can pass along? There is a West marine on my way home.

I am racing my very old, very neglected boat tonight for the first time this summer. I may buff out the bottom this afternoon. I have looked at tuning guides for proper rig adjustment. I do not have a race sail nor do I have plastic blades. I also do not have any sail adjustments rigged...
