Hello,
With only a few sails in each summer over the last 2 yrs. in MT, I’m still new to my older classic Laser. I’ve been able to recover my capsizes so far with some effort. I am concerned about my dagger board coming out when the boat turtles away from me. It never has, and I have a bungee, but I would like to know how to put it back in if it comes out. Is there a good way to get leverage because I don’t have a lot of upper body strength? Do the M brakes and help prevent the board from coming out if turtled for a while? Do the brakes make the board harder to adjust? Thanks for any tips!
