I've lately been restoring a 1974 laser at my yacht yard and there is a brand new stock laser right next to it. So since i've had some time to compare the two, i wanted to ask you opinion on the best hull modification. here are the changes i've noticed.
* plastic handrails
* automatic bailer
* centerboard brake
* screw caps
* rudder mounts
* all new blue deck hardware (fairleads, stern plug assembly, bow handle)
there are also a few foil differences i've noticed (probobly the most noticeably).
* fiberglass centerboard
* fiberglass rudder
For rig and sail difference there are some too.
* invention of the radial rig and sail
* invention of the 4.7 rig and sail
* mk6 radial sail
* blue end caps to spars
* aluminum clam cleats
So tell me what you think the most inportant change is yet in all catagories...
