The boats that are being used for the olympic trials are all being sold in the same fashion. Just call the dealer near any event that provides boats and they will have the details on the discount. Just be aware that they will try to pass the sails that are used at the event as "new", but they...
Well...I see I bent some noses with my comments.
Ended up going to PCC's and had a great time. They ran a great event and I couldn't have been more pleased with the conditions. Sailied in big breeze as well as some light and gave everyone an opportunity to be competitive in the different...

PCC's sounds like fun. Too bad I am on the East Coast at the moment. Will have to consider the costs...Charter boat, lodging, flight , transport etc...but it might be an option. Just started sailing laser again after sailing...
It is an Olympic qualifing year and the US Nationals is limited to 150 boat!!! This just doesn't make sense and add to that the number is combined 4.7, Radials and Full rigs. The Radials and Full rigs should have separate Nationals if that is the case.
