After letting it dry, and lots of patching, sanding, filling, sanding, priming and painting, I finally got my SUper Porpoise in the water. If you search this forum, mine was the one I got for free because it had some holes in it,a and it was water logged. There was very little wind when I took it out, but it floated and sailed.
I do have a problem getting the sail up, the bronze ring that attaches the lower boom to the mast doesn't slide at all when I got to raise the sail. If fact, it catches and hold fast. To raise the sail I have to pull the uphaul, and lift the boom, then tie it off. It's a 2 1/2 hand job.
Is there something I can do to make it slide easier along the mast?
Thanks
