Do you think ex Uni Laser 2s, Larks or whatever are likely to be any better? If so college boats have change a great deal since my days... |

Not so much as a what boat post, but more of a where can I get a boat.
My club currently has a sail training fleet of Toppers and Gulls. The instructors are finding that the Gulls are not the best boats to teach people in, as they look like a pile of junk (sorry to any hardcore Gull sailors out there) which doesnt exactly encourage teenagers, plus they are wobbly, woefully slow and have no room in them. Our club isnt laden with cash so I was wondering if any uni fleets are being sold that we could possibly buy, ie. Laser IIs, Larks, 420s, etc. If anyone knows of any up for grabs can they PP me with the details Cheers Paul |

laser 13s and wayfarer mkII s make good club boats 
, comet trios are also nice and wide with lots of space but the hulls are a bit flimsy (the one at a club i go to is 2 years old and has been written off twice-it wasnt me who wrote it off by the way!!!)
