no you are right- definitely in the wrong age demographic for the Laser.  But do come along Solo sailing... you could even buy a boat off your ol' mate Rog....

I wonder how he does in one, Vic (his nickname) was always a bit of a dab hand in a dinghy, did you know he once campaigned an FD trying for the Olympics?

Unlikely, what was the sail brand he was advertising on his Solo, back in the day he was known as what you would refer to as a builder of replica sails, he had a unique ability if someone won with a suit of sails, the next week Vic would show up with or could build you a set similar or so I heard, I never really knew him as a dinghy sailor and Lester an I used to decide what to build for Tush race sails, his would work better for large sailors and mine would work better for lights (and pump well)

We can do better than that;

Laser Radial NSW/ACT coastal championships; 35 entries, 65+ year old 5th, 60-64 year old 4th.

Laser Radial Metro champs; 22 entries, 60-64 year old 3rd, 65+ year old 7th.

Laser (standard) states; small turnout due to location, 44 entries,  65+ year old 3rd.
