I just traded for a very nice 7 7 Sunfish for pennies on the dollar. It was practically free and came with everything needed to sail including life jackets, cleaning stuff, gloves and all. I am very stoked. I had regular use of a friend's years ago and am happy to have this now for my kids and I. It must have a leak as I drained about 2 gallons out of it yesterday. This is a great forum and I have been reading about how to deal with that. I once had the opportunity to restore and sail a Canadian Olympic yacht and also spent several weeks on a motor sailor in Indonesia once. I know this Sunfish doesn't compare to that, but I will say I am very excited to be taking her on my maiden voyage this weekend. I look forward to learning a lot from you guys. Thank you, Darryl
