Yes and maybe, but who knows when. Nothing is likely to happen until the builders and CA stop squabbling.

Yes it is the Mark 2 design and cut but it is not currently class legal untill all parties (builders, CA, ISAF and rights holder) agree to it being launched.
It has been ready for market for at least 2 years that I am aware of.

For once I'd agree with GRF when he says you couldn't make it up...

You could but it would be far more believable!.... Look like it will go to court in the US mid March 2015 as long as LPE do not stall any more over discovery.

I assume it still sits on that dreadfully drainpip? Or have they ba**ardised and chucked on a fibre top section. Should bin the lot and go all carbon. Currently must be the heaviest and worst spars on any mainstream single hander. A chap at our club has the 8.1 roster with the carbon mast and it's much easier, even in a breeze, than the laser full.

Do you mean the carbon insert? If he is using a full carbon mast then he is out of class even for the 8.1 which is designed to be put on the std ali spars using wither a glass extender piece of a longer ali bottom section. There is a carbon top section that is pretty much ready for market but it has the same issue as the new sail.....

It's an all carbon mast and I assume rooster sold it to him. He only uses it for club racing so no one would be that bothered.
