I haven’t tried intensity Sails yet, so this is a good thread for me. I’d like to try them out some time. I love the crisp and feel of new Sails, I keep mine indoors to help them keep their life as long as I can.
I think the bottles are a great idea, they serve a purpose. Also, the bottles will not get waterlogged, and they can be easily replaced, an advantage over a foam. Your later remark about the weight is correct and could be useful for a daysailor or race. I saw you mentioned the M3, that is one of...
I recommend making a rectangular shaped frame out of 2 by 4 for the boat to sit on. This will allow for the boat to sit flat and also product the cockpit drain. Hooks can be screwed into the frame to be strapped down then all you need is to run some bungees or rope around the boat and connect...
What confuses me is the snark has much skinnier spars, and in the cases I have seen, a smaller sail than the sunfish, at least for the sunflower and seasnark boats . I believe that is the mayflower logo though, which as Alan mentioned is a Snark product. This picture appears to contain the same...
Sailcraftri is a member on the forum who has sails and other parts available for sale, if you private message him or place a wanted ad in the sunfish area I am sure he would be glad to get you the right parts for your boat
Replacing the lines is very important, I have had lines get caught in the pulleys and not be able to slide across them properly because of fraying. Glad to hear you are taking care of that. The halyard line doesn't matter as much in my opinion. Sailcrafti is a good seller for main sheets and...
Great looking boat there, I like that boat color, in fact I use to have one like that. The sail looks very nice, I like the green and white. Happy Sailing, glad you joined us on the forum.
Phone keyboards are definitely small, I prefer typing on the keyboard much more, but autocorrect is a nice feature sometimes. I never thought of it, but you are completely right about the darker colors not being as blinding. My current sunfish the 2007 Vanguard has the light blue stripe running...
I will have to call the marina when I get back in town then. They have a summer sailing camp, but I hear they are always updating the boats, so they may have a few old ones they would like to get rid of. The blue is nice as well as the green. Do you prefer solid paint color on the top or the...
Out of all the sunfish I have seen, most of them have been in peoples yards and just covered with pine needles, mildew, and surrounded by overgrowth :(. I wish they would just put them on craigslist so they could be enjoyed and cleaned up. The next one I see like this I will go give a knock on...
