I would suggest calling them: 1-800-966-7245 (SAIL), or going to their website: laserperformance.com - and sending an email to their info address.
I no longer work there - as i remember the deck is fog grey and the hull stripe is a different color (don't remember 2004). Give them a call...
Merrily, not to steal your thunder, but for those of you who are keeping up, the scores are available at www.usscmc.org, in the regattas section you can find the updated results. That withstanding, numbers are one thing, but I much prefer to hear the actual sailor's impression of the event...
Ross pretty much hit the nail on the head.
As an employee of LaserPerformance, I can tell you with confidence that the Name change will not affect our determination to bring you the utmost quality in service and boats.
You can expect the same great service from LaserPerformance that you...
Hello,
I work for Vanguard. We, nor are any of our dealers allowed to sell any Laser parts to Australia. Because of the licensing agreement we have with Performance Sailcraft Europe, we are only allowed to sell to North America and set territories allotted by Performance Sailcraft Europe. If...
Tammi, we share something in common, I fine tuned my ability to read puffs sailing on the Charles River for four years. While I agree my discourse was a little verbose, often times there is a lot more to sailing puffs and shifts than a couple of sentences about sailing towards dark water and...
The best way to read the breeze is first find the dark parts of the water. Once you can start reliably seeing the darker water on the race course, you need to be able to find the center of the puffs. You also need to know what kind of puffs they are.
Cat paw puffs usually come down over big...
high and mighty? i'm tired of laser sailors whining about the cost of everything. all 8 posts? i'm sorry, i didn't realize i had to wasted most of my time on this forum before i became "qualified" to post Ross. I should clearly bow to you with your 781 posts, oh lord of the internet sailing...
Shouldn't they happen less quickly according to who? What golden standard says that 500 dollars worth of sail should get you this much? It's clear we aren't just paying for the sail, you are paying for everything that comes with being in the laser class - as proved by the independent sail...
Well, it seems ironic that of the multiple variables that you can reduce, you want to spend 500 dollars on one, instead of a) hiking harder or b) tacking and sailing the lift and/or getting to clear air - both of which, last time I checked, are free?
More over, the cost of the sail isn't just...
Yeah, they can be built for less than half, but is the builder supporting the class at all? kicking any revenue back to the ILCA, which puts on events?
I asked and nobody answered, what is the average age of sails being used on the weekends. How many brand new sails are you sailing against...
I don't think you'll find someone here who disagrees with that. In fact, in life, i think you'd be hard pressed to find any product in the world where pricing is an actual function of cost.
My point is that you have to pay to play, ESPECIALLY in olympic classes, where sails are super...
then quantify, how long does a sail last? What is the average age of laser sails in your local fleet?
and on another note, if you can find me a flat screen TV for 500 dollars that will last for 2-3 years of intended use and isn't complete crap, and Millionaires (or the equivalent of the...

if you can find any dinghy that has the durability of sails that you are all looking for, that'd be freaking amazing. If you can find ANY sail that lasts 2-3 years and hasn't lost it's competitive edge after summers and winters of regattas (regattas where you are constantly racing...
