Hello everyone. I just bought my first Laser yesterday. I had an enjoyable first session on the water with it and am looking forward to the time on it. I will be using the search function for a lot of the tips/tricks as far as sailing faster and more efficiently. But wanted to say hello to all. I will be needing help in the future. Some really great detailed advice in the search. Thanks in advance. Hope to see some of you in the future.

Nice crowd, too. Drive into a regatta parking lot with your boat on top of your car and strangers will come up to you before you're even parked, offering to help you lift it down. Then, if there's a postponement, you'll find some of the good, experienced sailors hanging round the parking lot teaching rigging and tuning to the newbies.

Thats where I fell for the lasers. I was working the MAYRA championships which were held at my home club. I was heading up the offload/parking detail and then was on the committee boat for the laser races. A week and a half later, I bought my boat.
Not only were the boats really fast and cool. The sailors and their families went out of there way to be nice. really , really great crowd of people. Thanks to everyone here for making me feel welcome.
