Just been on the Laser site and the Aura seems to have a very strange new name the Bahia. It also seems to have the best coloured jib ever!!

"Performance: The light hull and large gennaker allow the Aura to fly across the water. Add the trapeze option and you take the boat to the next level."

They could do with changing the name throughout their marketing blurb... What is the "next level" for one of these things?

Isn't this just an RS Vision? 

"Trailing weight - 293kg's".... Thats heavy. 

Also, it says the Vago is "hugely successful".  Is that strictly true?  I've only ever seen one.
