Woohoo - new Sunfish!!? - how to make a sail for a sunfish

Sunfish, I went for a while. I think there are many websites that tells you how to make a sunfish sailing, but when you used to driving a boat, panfish easy. Some tips ... The wind is coming from his side or near the head, the more must the mainsail pulled the cord (which connects idler arm), more speed and performance - if you think getting to know you, or too fast Let's - go mainsheet is delayed. When the wind comes from behind you, and out of the sail, more power ....

Tack (push the bar, rod and extension rod away from you - that is the wind that is the most common form of return) be Jibe (by pulling on the rudder, tiller and extension staff towards you) before these exercises Make sure ready for the duck - the boom is found very quickly.


There are several ways to make a sunfish - the basic form should be presented to you - if not, pull the rope that is connected to thethe increase of the table (not to remember his name) and thread through the Eyela the top of the mast, pull through Eyela on deck. Finally, it is safe to stow away in the socket. The bigger the sail and pull the rope, the better!


Good luck!
