I have been taking the mast out of the boat, slide the bottom section out of the sleeve, loosely fold the sail in half at the lower end of the top section and then I neatly and loosely roll it around the mast top section.
The nice thing about this is that it only takes about 2 minutes to set up...
Before you go cutting out holes in your boat find out if there is indeed foam in the boat at all. I don't think there is any foam floatation in the hull!
Both people sail fine in the cockpit. Simply do not use the mainsheet block regardless of who is actually manning the sheet. Makes for easy transferals with no entanglements and therefore pleasurable sailing. - my 2 cents
I have an s10 small p-up to tote my boat with. I built a "dolly" by cutting a pair of 10' 2x10 stringers to match the profile of the hull. I screwed them together with 2x4 crossers, using a pair of crossers (4x4) mounted such that they slide over the wheel wells and down in front thereby...

I am contemplating purchasing a small pick up truck- the chevy S10 - which at 4'7inches wide and 7'6 long(tailgate down) could, I think, be used to transport my laser to and from the lake. I am thinking of building a cradle out of lumber which might cantilever off the tailgate a foot or so. The...
I feel compelled to reply because MY name is Bradley Green!! Weird eh???
I'm up north of Toronto, in Barrie. Anyway, fell absolutely in love with sailing sunfish last summer. A neighbour near my cottage has one which I started borrowing again and again and again. I've just purchased an old...
