I just moved up from sailing a Sunfish and a Puffer so am a real newbie. I bought a 17' Day Sailer III from a neighbor on our small lake and promptly capsized in a failed first start. Any suggestions on where I can find info on rigging for the DS3, especially for the mainsheet to boom (this appears not to have a traveler) and some suggestions for easing the center board down -- it works terribly hard and apparently always has. We've bailed out and decided to read a bit before trying again. Many thanks.
