helium doesnt really have that much lift. to lift an adult person takes hundreds if not thousands of normal sized ballons. filling the hull with ballons could maybe lift a couple onces
that 2 piece winter suit for 160 looks cool, but 6.5mm that seems really thick and ive never worn a front zipper suit. would you have any movability in it or not?

what i do if if really light, is take it out of the ratchet block and put the line around the mast so it pulls it out. i never do this in races but it helps if you're out and the wind is dead while youre trying to get back into the harbor.
also putting it past 90 is easy to do, so just do that
ive only seen lasers stored in the tree style rack, with two sides and 3 boats on each. although the top rack can be hard to to. i have seem optis stored vertically with padding on the back to protect it
i just got a wetsuit to go out. but guess what,,, we get a nor easter and the yacht club is like closed, i cant even go down the ramp to the dock i have to climb down
the bagtrick is to put a plastic bag on your foot as you put it through the leg hole, and then do it for your arms too. once you put the bag on and push your leg through you just pull it out the opening. this makes the wetsuit almost slide on instead of pulling it a lot.
im like 120 and sail a radial, never really sailed in anything over 20 but ive had some times when i couldnt keep it flat at all, but last year (first year i got into lasers) if it was ever windy i would just go out in a 420 cuz i was on the racing team
