daysailer mast on a weekender?

Post by Dan Campbell »

on measuring my mainsail for a new one I discover that the length at the luff is 20 feet not 22. Has anyone ever heard of this before?Does this mean I have the mast of a daysailor?

The mast on the Ty daysailer is stepped to the cockpit sole, so the mast should be longer and the luff should also be longer.

BTW, if anyone is interested, I know of 2 Ty daysailers for sale. They are in rough condition, they are being used at a sailing school.

Two CD Ty Daysailers, located at Lanier Sailing Academy, on Lake Lanier, about 25 miles NE or Atlanta, GA. LSA phone 770-945-8810.
If you want me to, I can check out the condition of each boat and
see what price they are asking for them? These boats have been used in a sailing school/rental program, and maintance has been poor, they are in rough condition. Send me an e-mail with questions.

Goto the resources section and download a copy of the Owners Manual - it has loads of info but on page 68 the following info (you should be able to follow the columns).

I purchased a Daysailer 2 years ago from a sailing school in Boston and have cosmetically restored her. Having also owned a weekender for 5 years I would say that the Daysailer (for day sailing) is a fantastic little boat.
