All Four Laser Rigs

up the boom??? lasers have goosenecks.

or taped to the front of the mast - but that always falls off

in a bag - where do you put the bag, 1metre back in the cockpit???

i just cant see how it would be easier personally - guess thats why they changed back

'the complete book of laser sailing' by dick tillman,

p112 on right hand side of page, just over 1/2 way down.

'one of the problemjs small people have always has is coming up with enough strength to raise the rig. so i put a halyard on the rig'

they changed back at the same time the coloured sails stopped being produced.

although i cannot imagine anything worse than having a halyard on a laser, where would you put it all???

the radials used to have a halyard aswell. the theory being the 'smaller' people who would sail them would not be able to lift the rig in a strong breeze if it had the sail on.

I have sailed an M rig - it had a halyard like a topper ...

Originally posted by ChrisJ There are another 3 official Laser rigs.... A: 949 sq ins B: 710 Sq ins C: 600 Sq ins They are all used on the 1/4 scale Radio Controlled Laser: http://www.rclaser.org.uk/

They don't count, unless you want to include the multifarious rigs for the Laser 2, the 2 each for the Pico, Vago and Bahia, and the rigs for the 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 13, 16, Stratos, Funboat, Vortex and even the 28 (did I miss any?). Stick to the ones that fit in the standard hull...
