So I'm trying to repair a Seitech dolly that broke a few weeks ago. All three rear brackets are cracked up. I'm considering just using some sheet aluminum or steel as gussets and bolting it back together. Gouv even suggested making a kit and selling it. We'll see about that. I need to know the...

My work has been blocking multiple threads since going to the new website. Something is suggesting that it's a "games" website and it blocks me. Doesn't happen on every thread, and never happened on the old website. For example, my thread I just posted in Laser about the best PFD, is blocked, as...

So in light winds I'm constantly capsizing because my back gets caught on the boom during roll tacks. I don't have the problem during normal tacks, but something about the angles during a roll tack keeps me from getting low enough. Sure, I could get smaller, and I'm working on losing some...

So I have a nice big floppy brimmed hat that I wear on most boats to keep from burning my scalp in the sun. I've tried it on the Laser and it just got in the way and annoyed me. Yesterday I went without it, tried to apply sunblock to my head, and ended up burned anyway. What do you guys use...

I had a horrible day on the water. Got rigged fine. Got the boat in the water fine. The wind was off the shore so I decided to wait until I got away from shore a bit, then go head to wind and put the clew hook through the sail. Easier said than done. Wind was supposed to be 12 mph, ended up...

I'm having some trouble rigging the boat I bought. It's used, but came with a Vanguard Laser Outhaul/Cunningham kit in a box. In the box I found 1 small block, 2 medium blocks, 1 block with becket, and two double blocks with beckets. There were two control lines, one blue and one orange. There...

Does anyone have any tips for how to store things so that it can be rigged quickly? http://www.intensitysails.com/acrespco.html That spar/sail cover from Intensity looks good, but I'm not sure how secure it is. I'd love to be able to go from unloading the dolly to sailing in under 10 minutes...
