Hello again,
Well I've been diligently repairing my old Sunfish. I hope to sail it this comming spring. Can you believe that it still has its original sail from 1965! It looks in good repair too.
My question is: has anyone successfuly transported a Sunfish in the bed of there pickup? If so, how do you rig it so that the Fish isn't damaged?
When I picked up the Sunfish from the owner's house I threw it in the back of my pickup and drove away so I know it fits but I worried about damaging the keel and other parts. From the repairs I'm having to make, it looks like the keel can be damaged by having to support the boat's weight. Maybe I should get a rug and put the boat in my truck upside down?
Thanks, SR
