I read that in the latest Y&Y ... I guess there must be some pretty decent club fleets now. What clubs have gone for these? Rick |

This strikes me as being an updated 4000, particularly if it comes with a trapeze and is heavy, although mine never weighted 150kgs as someone has said!

Sunsail have 5 clubs; Minorca 1 ... don't know how many Laser have but even if they have 10 each that dosn't make much of a hole in 600 ... Where are the rest? |

Admittedly I have been sailing for a long time, although looking forward to it now I have a shiny new machine, but I have not seen any of these at all - when Laser refer to 600 being sold, are they talking in the UK, or worldwide. Rick's right, there's no way that the sailing companies mentioned could make a dent in that number.

I'd guess most Vagos have been sold to 'new sailors' and are sitting in garages from which they'll emerge only to be sold. Best place for them!

Not really ... all those so called "new sailors" are perhaps the future new members of clubs country wide ... If new people to try the sport don't sail then the clubs have failed to embrace the new people who perhaps buy a boat after a holiday. I'd say perhaps this was covered at the recent RYA conference ... or I'd hope it was ... Getting holiday sailors to become regular club members must be key for the sport ... Rick |

Here we go again, Vago sl*gging, same old rubbish and this is a thread about the new Laser dinghy, which to be fair to Laser is aimed at Sailing Schools etc as a training boat, i.e. it isn't a 4000 replacement. The figure of 600 is worldwide. Most Vago owners I have met and sailed with are more than happy with their dinghies, perhaps it is the people doing the sneering that have the problem! |
