Nice looking boat, but it seems to me that Dixie needs a sail. :D

...and think of the money, space and aggravation you'll save not needing a trailer!

$350 for a hovering SF??? That's a deal!

Re: More on Sailing and BP... Man, then being part owner of that Farr 52 seems like a bad investment when instead he could be part of a great entrepreneurial opportunity here in the US if he and his friends decide to invest on all those independently owned fishing boats for sale in the gulf...

Re: More on Sailing and BP... I have nothing against anyone spending time with their family, especially during difficult times. However, it is (I believe) a poor showing of judgment to go out in public to a race where you multi-million dollar yacht is competing. As ordinary and harmless a...

More on Sailing and BP... BP top Exc. goes sailing. Whatta you think?:confused: http://content.usatoday.com/communities/greenhouse/post/2010/06/tony-hayward-yacht-oil-spill/1?csp=hf

I'm not trying to hijack this thread but, I am using a trigger clip like the one below. Any advantages the snap might have over the trigger or the spring clips?

Sounds like a lot! but the before post is right...

Wayne, you DO give the best answers and we are all thankful for that. :)

Thanks guys. It will just be a matter of hoe "good" is the condition of this hull. Will let you know what comes of it.

Someone just offered me a free Sailfish hull if I come and pick it up this weekend. Not sure of the condition, but I do know it has no rudder, spars, dagger-board, nor sail. He said the as for the hull is in good shape. My question is, Can I use parts from a Sunfish to put this other fish to...

Huh:confused: Wayne, just tell us to keep the darn thing open:p:p:p

:cool:

I hear ya'! I am in the education field and most of the programs used here are not Linux friendly, however... If Office is the case I could recommend giving "Open Office" a try. You can download it to any OS and it is almost identical to Office (word, excel, power point, money...). Again, is...

...and it's free, and can work with just about any machine, and virus free, and the support from the community is better than your paid service with Macs and PCs...Sorry guys to crash so suddenly, but as you can see I myself am a bit of an ubuntu freak. Much respect for Apple, but can't stand...

The coaming works especially in rougher weather or when there are waves, and if you are really sailing it to the limits. If sailing is to take place in calm, protected waters, then you could really do without it, IMHO. Now cosmetically speaking it will not look great but you know what they say...

Look or ask the seller to give you the hull number, which is located on the transom, or the back of the boat. Bring the number back to the forum and some people might be able to help you find the make and year (I believe is the last two digits). I know you can also find it on the web somewhere...

Check on the diagram below. This is a view from the top of the boat, and inside the cockpit there is on the lower left side a plug. That is where the bailer is supposed to be. If this is the location of the hole you're talking, then all you need is a bailer (around $40) and no big deal. If it is...

Ok I'm not technically sailing on this one, but is the closets thing I have to it. Plus, thanks to Wayne it shows how cool it might look in the not so distant future:cool:. Thanks Wayne! Wavedancer, are you in some sort of "backwards reach" on that pic of you sailing? :eek::confused::eek: That...

NICE!! Congrats on the six-pack;)
