Does anyone have any info/pics/videos on making your own daggerboard dolly - primarily for soft sand transport?

Has anyone out there used Quickedge trim to replace old original trim? If so do you know the mode/size you used....and did you take the old trim off or just put it over the original? Thanks.

Should the old trim be removed before using the Quickedge or does that help with the Quickedge to stay on better?

good tip. thanks!

K1c2m -- what model # of the Quickedge did you use? There seems to be different types on that website.

i just got a newly made rudder (wood section) and need to remove the hardware from my old rudder and install it on the new one. Are there any tricks that I should know about removing the old hardware and also any tricks/tips to install it (i.e. is adhesive needed on the new rudder). Thanks...

Thanks Randy!

Thanks. Do you recommend any particular epoxy to use?

Thanks, but I'm not sure what glassing means.

My rudder recently got a good crack in it, but it didn't spilt all the way. Is it possible to epoxy it?

Thanks everyone....the real problem is getting the bolt loosened.......its frozen like every other thing that screws on this '73!

Has anyone made a dolly for use at the beach (particularly in soft sand). I'm thinking someone might have made a simple one using the daggerboard hole. Any details/photos would be greatly appreciated.

I've got a '73 with same problem but I'm looking at the various replacement part options. I'd like to put in the black one (# 79457that 's sort of shaped like an oval and has a screw on both sides but the parts site say that it's for 1995s or later. Has anyone used this part on a pre '95 boat...

Great stuff Man! Thanks!

Can someone recommend a brand name for a 4 or 5 inch inspection port? Thanks.

Any ideas on the best way/product to clean up a sail? Thanks guys and gals!

I've been waiting a long time but I finally bought a used ('73) sunfish and I'm pysched for Summer to arrive. But this boat needs a little care. What's the best way/product to clean it up and bring back its luster (well sort of considering its a '73). It looks like the rudder and centerboard...

I've got to make a 10 mile ride with my fish and will be placing it on the racks of top of my 95 Volvo station. I'd appreciate and tips for securing it. What to use, where/how to tie down etc. I don't want to take out the guy driving behind me! Thanks.
