Lasers

   Think the cut off point for class legal LP boat is about 215*** . 
To be honest I smell the slight whiff of LP sock puppet with this thread.
Apologies to the OP if this is not the case .

	As far as club racing is concerned it will depend on each individual club's policy. For open events supported by the UK Laser Association only class legal equipment is accepted so no replica sails or replica hulls - even if they are branded by Laser Performance. I think in practice in recent years most new Lasers/ILCA have been bought by folk who wish to do open events. There's a paper here from ILCA covering what's class legal. https://ilca.uk/s/Verification-of-Class-Legal-Equipment-for-Laser-Class-Competitions-8-JUL-2020.pdf

	Would be surprised if there were many clubs that would turn one away, perhaps one with a large fleet of ILCA legal Lasers and ILCA'S might.

	Prior to the debacle regarding Lasers being rebadged as ILCA's and what is considered as class legal, a large number of clubs accepted so called replica sails for club racing. Now that a Laser, that is identical to an IlCA, can be purchased for £thousands less, are clubs accepting the Laser for club and open meeting racing ?
