Finally got my "new to me" Sunfish in the water today. Other than minor issues at launch, things went great.
I am using a make shift trailer til my HF boat trailer arrives. The issues I had to today was that it took a very long time to load unload the boat and most of that was due to the make shift trailer. But I need better straps. Any recommendations on secure straps that won't scratch the deck?
Same with mast/booms/sails. I used towels today and they worked but must be something better.
A tree caught my mast as I was getting underway. I think it put a tiny hole in the very top of the sail. Eventually I will need a new sail, but for now what is a good fix?
Dagger board keep wanting to run up a couple of inches. Expand the brass on the side or just ignore.
Thanks for all the help here and on yahoo I am now back on the water!!
regards,
Fletch
