Hi Adam
Hope you find your parts. You will love sailing the Sunfish. Im a Potter sailor myself. I have the Potter 15 named Moonbeam # 2475. Love that boat. But its sure fun to get on a Sunfish and just let loose too.
Good luck

Pinchot is about 15 miles from me and Codorus about 40.

Thanks Mike
I did have a question. How loose should I have the upper tip of sail so that the Cunningham can loosen and tighten. ? Not sure if Im wording that right? I am seeing that the Outhaul does more actual movement than the cunningham? Is that about right? I did get everything done...
I got all my new parts out last night and began changing to the racing sail.
As usual I didnt get far as every walker by stopped to talk about sailing heh heh. But I did get the stock sail off and the new one on. Tonight I will mount the clam cleats and run rest of lines. I can see just by...
Thank You, and I did have a very nice Christmas. I was very surprised and excited to open a new racing sail for my sunfish yesterday morning. Now if I can pick up some skill it will go faster heh heh. And it was purchased from the fine folks at APS. I got my boat there in the Fall and enjoyed...
I dont think the price of gas will keep me from sailing. I live only 2 miles from work so I dont feel bad when doing recreational trip driving. If I lived far from my job and had to burn up gas and money every day I would feel different though. So glad I decided to move close to job back in...

I was just in Erie on Saturday. Passing through from sailing at Grand Lake in St Marys Ohio. Although the super high winds 35 mph plus and storms made raising a sail too scary for me. I was to sail in Indiana but with storms just headed back to Pa. I stayed at small motel right near entrance to...
Thanks a lot for the information. Im looking forward to some fun next year.
Probably make a few more local race days this year yet. Seems like a fun thing to do and travel a bit. Good excuse for a road trip heh heh.
Thanks for advice and details

Being new at this Im wondering how it works. Not that Im going that high but this is the question. In the racing end do they start at regionals then go to nationals and then worlds? How would I find out the steps details etc.
Thanks

Second day on the water with my new Fish and came in last all three races.
But just behind...better than I expected. What a great time. I am certainly hooked on this. Sun Fish is different sailing than my other boats with head sails and ballast. By third race I was very comfortable with...
