All very well, if no-one wants to protest him at the club that's one thing, but if its going back into the system as a Rooster 8.1 in PY returns we should all be bothered. If its recorded as a one off non-class dinghy then that's fine I suppose. Edited by JimC - 01 Oct 14 at 11:53am |

Exactly. If I still had my 8.1 I would drop Rooster a line but it is immaterial to me now.

Possibly the worst (although certain untapered, non-spreadered rigs spring to mind), but are they really the heaviest (for the size of sail, I guess you mean)? Laser rigs always strike me as quite light to pick up compared to a comparably long Selden mast. Simple round tubes are pretty good in terms of stiffness to weight ratio compared to extrusions with sail tracks and various fittings. Sleeve luffs are not to be sniffed at either, if you can stand the inconvenience; but I digress (as ever)...

I think that a full laser mast is very heavy compared to the supernova or streaker ones, compounded by having to put it up and down all the time to hoist or change a sail.
