I would love some advice on this. I thought the Vision was really well put together when I saw it at Alexandra Palace, much better than the topper equivalent. But the laser 2000 - much nicer looking. I will only be playing around in the handicap fleet and want something as good for the teenage kids as for me...help !

From experiences at our club the Laser 2000 is an excellent handicap boat. So much so some of the fast fleet wanted it moved into the medium fleet!

Also the 2000 is much more established than the vision so will have a better re-sale value when you come to sell it. Also there is an open meeting circuit should you get interested.

the laser 2000 completly out classes the vision on speed, looks, handling and the vision is plastic and has no class assosiation!!

the vision looks lik it shood be a cruser it is so big and has less power than a snale the laser 2000 looks like it would be good fun in a blow stable but a lot of speed for this kind of boat

someone noticed!!! lol well we all have to start somewhere!!

It is my believe that your 2nd boat should always be a cat, but i will admit to laser sailing in the winter

Cats don't tack they bang corners! Most are a blast though
