Hi,
I'm glad to find this group. I don't race, but I sure have fun sailing my old
Sunfish on all the small lakes and inlets around Anchorage.
Here's an idea I'll share: I have found that Jr. size hockey stick or canoe
paddle shafts make ideal tiller extensions. They are laminated hardwood, made
with waterproof glue, and are easy to shape and finish.
Ice rinks and outfitters usually have a box of broken sticks and paddles
waiting to be used as firewood. They may even be willing to part with one for
the asking.
Dan, AK
