If the build quality was consistent yes. It is much better now than it used to be. We had some boats at Hunts that had masts at very strange angles.

I'm sure that someone on the Laser forums will be able to give you an informative answer

The rake issue is not unusual in the Laser

I realise this is horses for courses and a bit subjective, but,
What's a good rake measurement using a straight radial bottom section?

I've got 3425 to where the tape touches the top of the transom, half way round the radius.
