    Good day, night (which ever be the case)

    I just was wondering if anyone has ever sailed a Parker River Turnabout. At the time I am (slowly) refinishing one to put back on the market and I am quite curious to see how they sail. I have two good mainsails and a great spinnaker. The only problem is that I'm not sure how the rigging is supossed to go so that will be an adventure. :D I bought the boat in fair condition for a couple hundred, and the owner didn't know how the rigging was either. I sail a lot so I think I'll be able to get it, but any feedback I'm sure would be helpful. Thanks!

    Wondering how you made out with your Perker River Turnabout. I'm interested in finding an old woodie for restoration or sailing.
