If this has been discussed before, sorry, I missed it.
My several attempts to beach my 'fish in a mild surf have all ended in disaster: broken mast, broken dagger board, sails buried in sand, etc etc. Any suggestions? What do you think of this idea? Drop, furn and tie sail to bridle, raise board, raise rudder, get off sunfish and swim it to shore holding (or trying) to hold onto the stern - maybe the bridle. When it gets inside the surf pulll it up on the beach as quickly as possible. I have no dock to bring it into.
