I have a Windflite 14 and yes it is almost a Sunfish. Some of the drawbacks are Sunfish racing clubs won't let you join/race. There is no aft storage compartment and it would be difficult to add

Hi gang! I finally got out on the sunfish this past Saturday! Having sailed nothing but a Hobie 18 the last several years, I must admit that the performance was a little of a let-down, but I think

Howdy Carlos, Welcome to the group. Great feeling, sailing. Puts your hand on the pulse of the planet. Careful, you can grow some nasty molds in a container that can't breathe. A piece of 8" to

Hi Carlos, Yeah, I know how ot feels to begin sailing, wonderful isn't it! I am 62 and still get the thrill! I'd suggest that you store the sails in a closed container....most of my sails are larger

Hello: I have recently returned from a trip to our family lake cabin in the Adirondacks in Upstate NY. I bought a used Sunfish by phone from a neighbor before arriving, and had the time of my life

Thanks for the insight. I should elaborate, I have an old beat up Holder 12 (looks like laser) that I brought back to life and put a sunfish rig on. Has a 12' mast instead of the stock 10', and

This is a never ending source of comment/argument. 2003 Portsmouth number for a Laser: 91.3. 2003 Portsmouth number for a Sunfish: 99.6. This means the numbers claim that the Laser is a

That's the way to go. I'm pretty sure Dan Feldman at Wind Line Sails has a link in his "How To" section of his web site for installing one. http://www.windline.net/ Good luck. It's about a 3 hour

Was wondering how sunfish compare when raced against Lasers. Anyone have any experience and advice in this area? Thanks Shorty

I was thinking of installing a single hiking strap for simplicity. Any comments?? Frank

Hi I an hunting a Sunfish to buy. I am located in central Pennsylvania area. Anyone close by looking to sell? I am looking for a complete boat. One that could be sailed the day of purchase. I am

Hi Wayne, I noticed you are active on this list and the beachcats list. I'm embarrased to say that I haven't gotten to sail the sunfish yet. The later part of the summer has been quite busy. I took

Hi Mike, There are some tricks, e.g, Sit on the leeward side to help the sail to fill, sit down in the cockpit, push the boom out to catch some wind. You'll learn as you sail more. Knowledge AND

Please dry it out ASAP. The styrofoam inside can soak up the water if it is left inside. It then becomes a real nightmare getting the water back out of the styrofoam. Sometimes it isn't possible

Thanks, Wayne. I took my Sunfish out for the first time last weekend. What an education! Saturday was too calm, and I could barely putt around. Sunday was too windy (15+ knots?) for a first-time
