    Replacing clue fairlead

    Drilling out rivits isn't that hard, a little dangerous, but not hard. A rivet will last longer that a screw, and it can't unscrew itself. I have had several screw unscrew themselves, so now I use rivets whenever I can.

    Thinking about buying a Laser

    A laser is really easy to right, even when it turtles. You will get wet from both hiking out, and being in the water. Sometimes you can end up in the water without the boat flipping. I have had bad luck with hiking straps. 3 times now my hiking strap has broken while I was all the way out.:mad:

    I don't know about giving him a DSQ, but as to the damages, most races have you sign a waiver that makes it so you have to pay for any damages that happen during the races.

    Colie Racing performance upgrade instructions

    That is the ratio of turning points, 2, too control lines, 1. The higher the first number the easier it is to pull the line. That is the basics of what it means.

    What sail size should I get?

    Well, I just bought a used laser, it came with a full rig. I need a new sail and mast, the sail has a major rip, and the mast has a lot of corrosion. Everything is 30 years old. I was just wondering if I should get a radial instead of a full rig. I'm 5' 10", and 140 pounds.

    So, that doesn't make it weak? If that is so then I don't need to spend $200 bucks. How would you go about unbending it?

    How To Check If A Mast Is Straight??
