Greetings all!
I purchased an '83 Daysailer One for myself for Christmas. It was sitting behind a business we buy our PVC pipe from. I had been thinking more and more about buying a boat, what pushed me over the edge was, amusingly, a video game. The game was called Sea Dogs, it's about the Tall Ship era of the Carribeann. It was so fun I thought I would have to learn to sail for real.
Anyway, I remembered seeing this lonely sailboat, and finally managed to contact the owner. He agreed with me that it needed a new home, and I took it home on its trailer for $100. I've put about $150 into the trailer and maybe $100 into the boat so far, and had it out three times so far. This brings my total sailing experience to three times out. Thank goodness for the Coast Guard's sailing manual!
Back to topic. The manual on this website was most helpful for every question I had except one, which is, exactly how are the jib sheets routed? I have the two swiveling eye with clamps on the cabin top, and no hardware is missing.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
