I have a big picture of Dennis on the bow of his Stars&Stripes holding an anchor I made for him. I was shocked when we got the order, because I had assumed that everything would be “light weight”, but there were regs stipulating anchor weight.
Interesting......Considering that weight is a factor on those boats and whichever port they are harbored in, they're always docked when not on sea........Why would they have an anchor which would take up space in the front hull which is usually reserved for additional sails?
Dennis Connor never forgot his beginnings with Sunfish sailboats, and occasionally drops in to chat at Sunfish sailing forum discussions.
