I have a 1994 Laser that was raced up until 2002. I had a full understanding of the time of the optimal way to rig my boat with trucker hitch purchases. I really want to upgrade the boat to the new XD rigging, but like so many people the price is holding me back. I am thinking of buying only Laser certified blocks individually and between blocks we have from other boats, port supply and sales acquiring the rest.
Do the micro blocks for the rest have to be a specific brand or part number?
Also would a 1994 boom (blue or gray blocks- not sure if I have my brothers Laser Pro boom or mine from 94) need to be reinforced when I get the new vang?
I think these are the Laser XD parts that I need, is this correct?
Laser Vang
Laser Block Plate
Laser Cleat Base Plate
Laser Clew sleeve- is there a reason to use the velcro strap instead?
Harken traveller block- I am adding this because it looks like I am missing one of my old traveller blocks and no more duct tape.
It is sad that I have not raced my boat in so long and I appreciate any advice you can give me.
