Can you tell me more about the inspection holes. I've heard that mentioned a couple of times in the forum.
Exactly what is the process to do this and are there some specific access covers that you use? Do you have any pics of these inspection holes?
Excellent advice. I was wondering about the same things (what is the hardware attached to?). I was just about the make the mistake of removing both screws at the same time and potentially having nothing to re-attach to .
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me anything about Bird Key, Saddlehill Key and Pelican Key (Lower Keys Florida).
Are these open to the public? I was hoping to do some sailing in that area over the next few weeks and just thought about being to able to land on a beach and get some...
I just purchased one from Kevanesail.com. That was the best price for a recreational sail that I found. I placed the order by phone and the sail arrived as promised three days later. The number is 888-724-5748.
I'll have it out on the Gulf next week I hope.
Wow..that sounds scary.
Actually, my sailing will take place just north of Garrison Bight not far north of the mooring bed there. This is a huge open space bordered on the south by an island owned by the US Navy that extends out a couple of miles.
Its pretty windy on that side of the...
I'll be in Key West in a couple of weeks and plan to take you up on the offer Norman. Actually, I was there all of November but didn't have my sunfish with me, but noticed a lot of them sailing off Sigsbee Park where my motor home is.
Just purchased a new sail and did some repairs to the...
I just picked up a 63 model Sunfish that needed new rudder, tiller, dagger board and sail. The boat itself is in excellent shape and a good trailer was included for $400.
Even in its present state, I have sailed it a few times and I was surprised how well she sailed. All the hardware (very...
Anyone out there sailed recently around Key West? I'm headed there for the entire month of Janurary 08 and planning to trailer my Sunfish (after a few upgrades...its a "63" model).
Last winter when I was there I noticed some Sunfishes on Smathers beach for rent and did see a few sailing on...
Josh: This mostly depends on the type of water that you plan to sail on. I usually sail in lakes and paddle out to catch the wind. As soon as I reach enough dept for the center board, I lower it for stability. As for returning to shore, the same would apply.
I have a pre 72 Sunfish in good condition except for the rudder and tiller.
I want to purchase a new rudder and install my pre72 hardware on it. Does anyone know if this is workable? I'm wondering if the new (post 72) rudder is actually a different shape than the old ones, preventing the old...
I am looking at buying a used Sunfish from a person and I was wondering how to determine the year of the boat. There is a plate on the boat with the first two numbers "62 and the last two numbers "82".
Would either of these represent the year?
