Hi everybody,
I'm a Dad with a 10 year old daughter in summer camp learning how to sail this year. I went out and bought a fixer-upper (spent 50 bucks) pre-95 Sunfish. Needs some work but that's no big deal. I was hoping somebody could give me some advice on where to buy parts. I've seen APS racing out of Annapolis, there's got to be more. I build boats for a living if anybody has any questions about repair work I'd be glad to help out all I can. We plan on sailing on the lakes in Central Florida and the West Coast of Florida Thanks, Jeff |

Hi!
You guys will have a blast with the Sunfish I bet. There are several places in Florida that stock Sunfish parts including the Tackle Shack. You could check www.sunfishclass.org and look at the links section, or check the Vanguard website (also linked at the Sunfish class page) and use the "dealer locater" function on their website. Happy Hunting! --- cngrsmn <cngrsmn@...> wrote: Hi everybody, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup |

There are a couple of links you may find useful in the bookmark section of this group. You may also find the inner hull pictures in the files section helpful in your fix-up efforts. To save you a little time, Vanguard (the current manufacturer) lists dealers in your state including ones in Sarasota, and Clearwater, on this web page: FL%5EUnited+States&submit=Go%21 Pre-'95 Sunfish can be really great boats. I have a '79 in mint condition and like it better than the new design. OBTW, I'm also a big fan of the gaff-rig Catboat design. Your project sounds outstanding..... are you building the Whitholz from plans or restoring a classic? I'm not familiar with that particular boat. Good Sailing, Wayne -----Original Message----- |
