The Massapoag Yacht Club is holding a multi class regatta on Sept 8-9 2012 at their club in Sharon Massachusetts, about 15 miles south of Boston and 25 miles north of Providence, RI. We're going to be running two Sunfish fleets this year, one for the elite sailors that participate in the...

It appears that Laser Performance is coming out of the doldrums. I was at the factory store in Portsmouth, RI on Monday, and saw some encouraging things. They have renamed and completely revamped the store. It's now called "Laser Performance Sail and Sport, Rhode Island". They have replaced...

You want the new style rudder, you got it!

I've recently started racing. I've rigged the boat with a new racing sail, ratchet block, new lines and a sanded and polished hull, and refinished wood daggerboard and rudder. I'm getting great starts, but by the first mark I've noticed that I can hold my own, and generally beat racers with...

I just got back from the Laser-Performance Open House. These people are the real deal, they are passionate about the boats. I brought my boat in for a shine and buff, and they did a spectacular repair job on my deck too! When I asked if I could video the seminar, they not only allowed me to...
