In the open discussion forum there's a thread about using an old Laser hull to make a mold, from which to make a carbon Laser. The young aspiring boatbuilder did not want a class legal boat, but just a boat to knock around in. He says his Laser would weigh 30 lbs! I have no idea about the feasibility or expense of this, and that was not the point of discussion.
So is the Laser patented? Would making a copy solely for you own use be like copying a music or video disk for your own use and be legal? I doubt it. I think that it would be illegal to make a copy because boat makers, such as Vanguard in North America, buy a license to make the Laser.
Are there any lawyers in the house?
