Re: Sunfish Manufacture and Purchase
开云体育If you don’t mind quoting price, what is the price for the package ready to sail.? I am a fix it up guy and just a recreational sailor so I don’t have to have the best.? Bought second hand stuff most of my life.? Converted my 64 to the new rudder with other improvements including a dolly.? The foam blocks are loose on the inside and I have a little leak somewhere.? I hope to find that soon.? Fixing these things up doesn’t take great skills…anyone can teach themselves about fiberglass repairs and the rest is just common sense.? How many things built in 1964 are totally functional today.? “Fix up these nice old boats and pass them on when you are done”” ? Mr Mike ? Sent from for Windows 10 ? From: Dr. Keith Kenitzer

I have done business with Sunfish Direct and have been pleased with their service, products and prices.? I recently ordered a new LP daggerboard and rudder and they arrived as advertised.? On another note, I purchased my Sunfish from a vendor who supplied boats for the Internationals in 2014.? It was raced a few times in the Internationals and then boxed back up in original shipping box and delivered by truck to my home.? Everything arrived just fine.? I wouldn’t hesitate purchasing a new Sunfish hand having it delivered it that’s a concern.? Best of luck. ? Keith ? Keith W. Kenitzer, DC ? Goben Chiropractic Offices, PLLC ?

On Behalf Of Tom Salwasser via groups.io ? Greetings Sunfish sailors. Please help me with a few questions. ? After some googling it appears that Sunfish are currently manufactured mostly in China and possibly in the UK or Portugal. The final year of manufacture in the US would be 2007. I wish I had the option to buy a new Sunfish made in the US. UK or Portugal would be my second choice.? ? As for purchasing a new Sunfish, it's hard to find a dealer, but both Sunfish Direct and Laser Performance offer new boats for sale online. Has anyone purchased a new Sunfish from either and had it delivered in a box to their home? Or driven to Sunfish Direct in Michigan and picked one up? Did the process work well? ? I see there's a new (to me) Ice Blue hull color offered by Laser Performance. Has anyone seen it in person?? ? I'm interested in a new Sunfish this year. Maybe this pandemic will subside and a little normalcy will return to the world and my 1976 Sunfish is in sad shape. ? Thanks for your thoughts. ? Tom ? |
