ok... waving the newbie flag here...
but... Some buddined and I had an old banett sailboat, about 10-12 feet or so... A friedn down the way offered his Laser for sale for about $600... we waited and waited, thinking it was too much... finally aftre a summer of not selling it, he let us take it for $400... with trailer and ready top sail.
The bottom was a funcy sort of mustard yello, the top between a white and beige. The serail number under the bow cealt says 1769.
So all the laser serail numbers I've come across on the web are longer than that... Does this mean I have a really Old laser, or that the number under the bow cleat is not the serail number?
anyway, the fiberglass was badly blistered, we sadned it out and repainted it... dark blue hull with white top.
Woupld be interested is finding a resource online where I can figure out how old it is... this seems like a beginner question, but I didnt see a FAQ...
any help woupld be appreciated....
