Hi, I have an 71 sunfish and a 60s edo western star dancer. I have a question on each one
-sunfish- i removed the halyard cleat. It is directional and marked with a triangle on one side. Which side should have the triangle facing it?
-edo western- My friend's roommate ran over the tip of the bow when it was upside down. My plan was to separate the top and bottom like you can on the sunfish, remove the handle and replace the block while I'm in there but it appears to have some green brittle stuff (and alot of it) gluing the top and bottom together.
Should I,
1, attempt to separate the top and bottom
2, leave handle in, exterior repair and not bevel much the fiberglass right in front of the handle
3, remove handle, repair with proper beveling and probably have to cut a port to replace the backer block for the handle. I read that supposedly has spray foam on all surfaces, not sure how that would affect anything.
