Everyone Should Own a Sunfish (Here’s Why) - Ep 360 - Lady K Sailing
The Sunfish is the best-selling sailboat of all time — over half a million built — and for good reason. It’s simple, portable, affordable, nearly indestructible, and one of the purest ways to learn and love sailing. Today, I’m diving into why the Sunfish became a legend, why it’s still one of the most joyful boats you can own, and why I truly believe everyone should sail one at least once in their life.
Whether you’re brand new to sailing, looking for your first boat, or just want something fun to blast around the lake, the Sunfish might be the most perfect little sailboat ever made. No slip fees. No complicated rigging. No crew required. Just wind, water, and a bright colorful sail that makes you smile every time it fills.
In this video we talk about:
• Why the Sunfish became the world’s most popular sailboat
• How its design makes sailing simple and fun
• Why it’s the best boat for beginners AND a serious race class
• The history behind its insane production numbers
• How affordable it is to own, store, and maintain
• Why it continues to bring new sailors into the sport
If you’ve ever thought sailing was too expensive or complicated, this little boat proves otherwise.
Let’s get more people sailing, more easily.

Lady K Sailing
Sell everything, sail off into the sunset, and make videos to help other people join into the cruising life and explore this beautiful world. That's always been the mission of Lady K Sailing. I'm Tim and I set out from my days of PHRF sailboat racing on the Great Lakes to explore the world on my 1980 Hughes 35 foot sailboat - Lady K. I refit her extensively, traversed the Erie Canal, and made my way down to the beautiful blue waters. I made a video every Friday with some adventure clips and some "how to" segments to help you get your own boat and come join me. Since the big trip I am back on land refitting Lady K for another big adventure but in the meantime I am making the "Everything You Need to Know" videos and boat shopping videos to help more people enjoy the wonderful world of sailing.
