Hey all new to the forum,
alright so about 3 years ago i came into owning a sunfish, someone i used to work with gave it to me, but i dont know any details on it, well it needed some work and seeing as i live in fl you would think you could find a boat repair place for a sailboat, but most places only deal with motorboats. anyways my lil brother was a sailing fanatic which is the reason i got the boat, and after he passed i was really hoping to fix the boat and get it up and running so that i and the rest of my family can enjoy the boat. so below are two pictures of the sunfish we have. if it sits for much longer im afraid my mother with toss it to the garbage men. i know it needs 3 things right off the bat; new rudder, dagger board, and possible new rigging to go with the sail, i have no idea about the actual body of the boat. so if anyone can tell me whether this is worth salvaging or can help me find someone to contact that does repairs that's not to insane on the charge and is somewhat locall, id very much appreciate it. i can travel somewhat, so location isnt to bad... thanks for the help.
