Hello All:
After a long hiatus from sailing I just pruchased a Mod 1 (88 Model) - looking forward to the first sail this Sunday.
A few newbie questions:
1) Is there a type of life vest that is preferable over other types? The typical ski-type vest seems confortable. The kayak version is shorter, but possibly a bit more comfortable. Am I over-thinking this?
2) Is there a hull wax that is preferable over others?
3) The hull has a few minor scratches (not through the gel coat). Should I:
a) fill it and sand it. If so, then fill it with what?
b) no fill - just sand.
c) forget about it - just sail the thing.
4) Reburbishing the teak.
Thanks for you time,
Art
