Sunfish Sailboat Sheet Hangers

 20 Aug 20:

A common problem on Sunfish sailboats is having the sheet catch on PFDs or body parts when tacking. One remedy is to keep slack out of the sheet, another is to add a couple of sheet hangers to the lower boom, they help keep the sheet form sagging between the two blocks. We buy ours from Intensity Sails, inexpensive and they ship fast.

We also added a new sheet from New England Ropes, 5/16th inch diameter Sta-Set. Purchased from R&W Ropes.
