John, Is this the picture? http://tinyurl.com/ehy3 The Harken Little Hexaratchet can be an option too. http://tinyurl.com/ehyr I use one attached on the deck. Be careful using a cam cleat. They

Adi, I think the Vanguard instructions assume a beach launch. As has been stated, rigging at dock side is a bit trickier. Frankly, launching at a ramp sucks, especially when it's crowded. When faced

Dear Adi, If you're only going to be sailing recreationally and won't be racing, then any "knockoff" sail you buy will likely serve you long and strong. I have sails in my garage that are 2, 5, 10,

Other tiller materials can be: Hockey sticks, Canoe paddles, Axe handles.... Be very careful choosing aluminum tubing and metal golf club shafts for a tiller extension. There have been cases where

Adi, In short, not necessarily. A good sailmaker will provide just as good a sail. I believe there are a couple of qualities to look at - Material, Cut, and Workmanship. The official Sunfish sail

My how times change! Used to be the bottom rack was fought over, a big prize for ease of loading! I recommend spraying the area where your boat will be stored with Roundup, then you will have a

Thanks, I got the same message myself. But I appreciate you efforts. Nate =================================================================== This message originates from the law firm of Frommer

Nate, Don't know if this is within your area, I saw this in another list-- Wayne For sale in Westerly RI: 1964 or so boat, good condition, upgraded = rudder, painted, very sailable for kick

Actually, I was wrong, the racks are horizontal, so it's much easier to get a boat on and off with one person. Better yet, people don't like to use the lowest racks because of the weeds growing there,

When I rigged my used sunfish. I needed a tiller and tiller extension.. I used a Post hole digger handle and had a friend cut it down to 3/4 of an inch.. about 13.00 $ i bought a universal from the

I might end up with rack storage for my Sunfish this summer. The boats are stored sideways in a rack made of 2x4's. I'm curious about a method for moving the boat from the rack to a dolly all by

Thanks for the advice guys. I was specifically asking about launching from a single boat trailer at a ramp and whether to raise the sail before you start backing into the ramp or after the boat is

Do you mean launching from a trailor, or just launching from a pier? If the boat is already in the water, and the mast is up, then the question may be whether to shove off and then hoist the sail, or

Adi, I've seen people who have single boat trailers rig the entire boat before putting it in the water, but I've never seen anyone with the sail up at launch. I can't see how it would be efficient to

All there is are the class rules on the web site. No real templates. Home made is illegal for racing. Good luck. Gail ~~~/)~~~/)~~~~/)~~~/)~~~/)~~~~/)~ Gail M. Turluck ISCA Masters

And where can I find templates for making rudders and keel boards?

I've heard conflicting information about whether the sail should be up or down while launching. So, what is your opinion on the correct way? Thanks, Adi

Thanks for all the pointers guys. I have one more question: Is the sail cloth quality better for the official Sunfish sail (North Sails?) as compared to the other

Mine is on the deck ~just~ forward of the cockpit, so that the sheet hangs straight down into the cockpit when cleated and not being held (by hand). Dave J sd0044@...
