So light, it sails on air!
A scaled down SUNFISH, that sold fairly well for a few years.
The MINIFISH II included a kit for conversion to an unstayed cat rig.
Similar the SUPER SNARK with a larger rig and different deck arrangement.
Updated version available as SUNFLOWER 3.3 (1990?)
The successor to the original SAILFISH (first introduced in 1948). The SAILFISH was originally built of plywood and many were sold as kits. The fiberglass SUPER SAILFISH MKII was introduced in 1959 and the original was discontinued shortly afterward. ALCORT produced several hundred SUPER SAILFISH a year but it was soon eclipsed in popularity by the hugely successful SUNFISH, which was first produced in fiberglass at about the same time.
Early SNARKs were one of the most popular sailing boats ever. This is partly due to the fact that they could be purchased with ‘product coupons’. For example, a large number of Kool cigarette coupons could be redeemed for a SNARK with the Kool logo on the sail. It was also possible to purchase a SNARK with the KOOL logo (without smoking a single cigarette) for $99.
The Kool ad campaign reportedly received 18000 SEA SNARK orders in 1971 alone!
Most later SNARK’s are made of styrofoam with an outer layer of ABS for improved durability.
(Although the boats that were part of ad campaigns were usually built of styrofoam without the ABS shell.)
