Sunfish

  • Designer

    Alcort, Inc.

  • Design year

    1953

Captain: Open Position

Taken from the back of The Sunfish Bible, "then comes along this little 13-foot 10-inch thing with the pocket handkerchief lateen sail and…it starts, she gets up on a plane and flies, superb-feather light, ecstatic, on top of the water, the world, balancing wind, hull and water with weight and reflexes." The Sunfish, the most popular American sailboat built, gets people out on the water. There is much to learn and we plan to rekindle the small boat fleet comradery and concept. Be a part of it!
