Hello, first time post here. Our neighbors donated a Laser to us down in Baja. It needs to have the mast base repaired. I've bought the kit from Diversified Fiberglass and will install that kit later this month. I am not much familiar with Lasers, or sailboats in general, but I'm going to learn!
Here's my question: I'd like some recommendations for extra parts I should take down to Baja with me, things like extra line or rope, pulleys, etc. I don't know exactly what is missing on the boat (although it comes with all the basic parts- sail, rudder, etc.), and I won't know until I get down to Baja. Marine stores in Baja will be some distance away. I was thinking I would buy some rigging line and other smaller stuff and fly it down to Baja in my luggage. I would like some recommendations on the type and length of rigging line to purchase here in the US, or any other small parts that folks think I would likely need.
