I'd buy it if I had a car/towbar, £750 and somewhere to put it..

If it is an older hull, with original sails or even just one suit of sails.....it prob could sell for that much.... Or if the person who is selling it doesn't understand laser4000 prices?

doesn't Noble Marine have a stolen boats site, could be worth reporting to them

the 2000 class spotted a L2K on e-Bay without sails or rudder, got suspicious, contacted the seller for the sail number, checked their records and rang the owner (who was a member), who only then found it missing from his lock-up

made for one very unhappy Scouser

In original post, you mentioned a 405. A mate of mine just bought one from Plas Menai. There was another there still for sale. They wanted £500 for them - the one he took was the best but he says both were good value and hadn't been sailed all that much. At that price it maybe worth a look - as long as you're aware of how the class is doing since it's no longer an RYA youth class.

Think the best 2 options are the Laser 4k or the Laser 2. Go for the 4k if you can find one cheap enough and if you decide to, there is a really good circuit for them and the boats are bomb-proof. The Laser 2 can be a great buzz, pretty tippy and blast it on 3 sail reaches when the wind is up and you can pick up good ones for next to nothing. Maybe keep an eye out for 3000s too, we sold one for £1500 just due to its age but the boat was in perfect condition.
