Mine broke/ripped off. I have no inspection port. I see wood beneath, but can't really assess the condition. I really would like a place to lift on the boat that's sturdy. Guessing that the only solution is to cut a port in the bow and throughbolt the handle (or install a beefier cleat or...

Looking to get rid of my 1968 sunfish. I got an '81, and am trying to keep the best parts. 2 dagger boards. The one from the newer one is in worse shape. The older one idk if it's original. Any advantage to either one of these?

However, I'd like to upgrade to the new style rudder. Figured it was a long shot, but didn't know if I...

Hi all, been looking through the site for the last few days, very informative. I used to screw around on sunfish 20 years ago, but haven't done much since. Have a couple of kids and were hoping to get them into sailing, and picked up a new (very old) Sunfish for $450. At that price, I was ok...
