. Because I often rig my Sunfish away from shore, I've borrowed their halyard concept for two of my Sunfish.
If only raising the sail from knee-deep water, I would put a cleat on the mast. Cleatless | SailingForums.comhow is that done?
Better Late Than Never: You are right on with the free fall on water recreational. . One of the major problem with most water sports is retail prices...way way up. WAY OUT OF THE REACH OF NEWBEES.. $ 5,000 for a boat and no one to sail with or teach them to sail . . . . Couple that with the high retail prices for needed equipment and a generation that for a large part would rather sit on their ass with a computer instead of taking to the water.. and h ere in the Tampa area..home to a national Sunfish champion..you have to look long and hard to find a fish on the water..Wind Lasses excepted. . Bottom line: If fleet and dory sailing is to survive there must be a major effort made to interest the younger generation and the most logical place to start is the boat clubs which have to over come any snootry reputation they may have..deserved or not and purchase a fleet of boats for a training program. All boat manufactuers have fleet prices.The time to throw the industry a life preserver is over.What used board boats other than Sunfish show up most in your area? Michigan seems
to be Scorpion and Porpoise . Anyone have a list of productions numbers for the most
common board boats? I remember something about the Scorpion at one time being allowed
to race in the Sunfish class.
