Re: Leaks in a Sunfish
Lots of detergent in your soapy water. Bucket with a sponge. Slop it all over. Wait patiently. Have a grease pencil so you can mark the spots that are leaking. Any Sunfish can be saved ...

Our battery powered Porter Cable wet/dry vac works great. Also nice for clean up after sailing. https://youtu.be/RMqY8VSIwtU https://youtu.be/RMqY8VSIwtU https://youtu.be/6BYwNLxZsEg

Re: cleaning up a minifish that has been in storage

I meant to say sail it and then see where the water runs out when she's back ashore :) That's how we found a leak on one of our boats. She had a soft spot on the keel that we didn't notice, trailer
