Sunfish New or Used

[alwaysmovin]

Hi! I just joined the Sunfish Forum - thanks for having me!

I am thinking of purchasing a sunfish for next summer and was wondering if I should go new or used??? If used, what should I look for as far as knowing a quality boat?

Thanks!!!

It would be a good idea to let everyone know how you will be using the boat. Are you going to race or just have fun with a nice little boat? Unless you really want new you can get very nice used boat for a good price. If you want new, buy one of the worlds boats that are coming on the market next week.

Its alot less stressful to scratch a used boat or get a pinhole in a used sail than it is a new one. How careful are you?
