The Sunfish daggerboard should have a retaining line, so in the event of a capsize the board does not float away. Very important, as the board is used as a lever to right the boat.
The old wooden boards had a 1/4 inch diameter hole drilled in the cleat to attach a thin line, and many of the holes are nowadays filled with dirt.
We cleaned out the hole before shipping the boards off to North Carolina.
