by the ILCA Technical Officer. Therefore
each Laser sailor can be sure when he
participates at a regatta that the other
sailors have no technical advantage over
him because everybody has the quasi
identical equipment. However, this system
is costly. The tight tolerances lead to
rejects in manufacturing. Inspection costs
are higher. Copy parts are not controlled
and can therefore be produced at lower
cost
From December Laser World. Tight tolerances lead to reject in manufacturing... Somehow I do not belive that to be the main reason for the higher cost.
