I took my sunfish out of the water today. It spent 3 days in salt water in my slip here, and did 4 or 5 beach landings. The behr garage epoxy held up great to all of it. There were no blisters or bubbles from sitting in the water that others have described. The beach landings didn't peel...

Just got back from a sail on my sunfish ~4-5 miles off coast to an Island, and then back again. Boat performed perfectly over and back. I wouldn't have even considered making the sail however if I did not have a buddy in another boat that could save me if something went wrong (broken master...

Honestly, I would say one. I've had two on my boat, and it was way too crowded to actually sail. I dont think I'd ever put two on the boat again...but that's just my opinion....

so I ended up doing 3 coats of behr garage floor/concrete epoxy, waiting 12 hours between coats. Not entirely sure how its going to hold up. I flipped the boat back rightside up on the trailer and some of the epoxy as already peeled off....:( I'm kind of doubting its ability to hold up to...

Cool thanks for the tip! This is the route that I'll probably take then. I just have one more fiberglass repair/patch to make on the hull and then its painting time! Thanks! Stephen

Ah I didn't mean the drain, I meant the bailer. Perhaps I wasn't moving fast enough along for it to drain. Thanks!

Went out yesterday in the 15-18mph winds we had here in Atlanta, and managed to flip the fish. She righted easily, however I was left with a cockpit full of water. I opened up the drain, but even under sail, it seemed as tho water came into the cockpit thru the hole, rather then exited. Is...

Hey Wavedancer, do you know which block and clam cleat you have for your mainsheet? It looks like this is the piece that I am missing. Thanks! Stephen

First post here! Just purchased a '73 sunfish that came w/ standard class rigging, along with the super sunfish rigging. The previous owner really didnt seem to know much about the boat or how to properly rig it. Thanks for posting those pictures, I was fairly certain the way he showed me to...
