In the early 1970s, the recreational sailing boom was dominated by minimalist boardboats. Chief among them was the Sunfish, a globally ubiquitous design from AMF Alcort that offered simple, wet, and highly accessible thrills on the water. However, for sailors wanting more than a "sitontop" experience—yet still craving the ease of a simple, singlesailed rig—the market offered few options. Enter the Flying Fish, a 14foot fiberglass daysailer introduced in 1970 and designed by Carter Pyle and Joe Quigg. Conceived as a more sophisticated alternative to the Sunfish, the Flying Fish was built to bridge the gap between a pure boardboat and a traditional cockpitstyle daysailer, offering a drier, more comfortable, yet remarkably highperformance platform for youth, families, and racing enthusiasts alike.
