... The trusty Laser, can be a bit of a handful if you're as light as me and the wind gets up but then I learnt how to dry capsize years ago so I'm not really too bothered. I'm not sure if I really like to race or not, I have raced several times in the past and normally come high up the local ... Read review

The best sailing ever...
Review of Laser Singlehander by thera_42

Advantages: fast, fun, maneuverable
Disadvantages: Some people have difficulty putting up the sail/mast on their own.

...7.06m squared area whilst the Laser Radial has only 5.72m squared and the Laser 4.7 sail has even less with 4.70m squared surface area, the smaller sails allow lighter people to handle the boat in a good wind . The mast is in two pieces and I know some people who have trouble fitting the mast, it can be considered quite heavy by people like my mum and my sister who always need help with it. The boat can stay afloat with up to 158.7kg so it should ...

A relatively new addition to this class of boat is the Laser Pico, designed by Jo Richards in 1995 it is constructed of different material to the original laser.

Review of Laser Singlehander by Stainer1986

Advantages: it's quick, fun and a supreme singlehander for all ability levels
Disadvantages: Can be cold when you go in for that early swim

The laser is a boat for everyone, and for every oppotunity. Here are a few tips to consider when buying a new laser. When looking for a new boat, you want something... L longlasting - you down want to be forking out large sums of money on a regular occasion. With the laser it is just the one payment and then enjoyment; this is mainly due to the fact that it is a one design fleet. You cannot go out and buy equipment that wil give you an unfair advantage, ...
...laser therefore provides racing that brings out the talent rather than just those sailors who are loaded. A adaptable - the laser comes with 3 different rig sizes, which will cater for both differing abilities and differing conditions. The hull however is the same. To change the sail size all you need is firstly the sail, and secondly the lower half of the mast. Thus making it very versatile and very quick to change the rig to suit the sailor. ... Read review

Review of Laser Singlehander by s1lver

Advantages: fun, fast and singlehanded
Disadvantages: a bit quercky off wind

I have been involved with Lasers since the early '80s mostly in teaching environments. They are very adaptable - having a series of different sized rigs to suit people of different sizes and ages. Being a strict one-design they are useful in coaching - the difference in performance being due to the sailor rather than other factors. Being one-design does mean that for serious racing you need to buy your spares from the manufacturer and there is no ...
...to sail, simple to rig and are suitable for improvers and above - you need to be fit and agile in higher wind strengths. The mainsheet can hook-up on the corner of the transom when tacking and (usually) gybing when you are reaching or further off the wind. The secret is to add in a roll and a flick of the sheet as the boom starts to move across the boat - this should flick the falls of rope avoiding a catch and possible early bath. The other endearing ... Read review
