I am 15 and a half, and about 50kg, and wanting to sail a double-handed trapeze boat, have started to sail a laser 2 with my younger brother who is thirteen. although we are well underweight, we enjoy is and can compete as long as the wind is below 25 knots! a couple of years ago i tried a season in the 4.7, but i have always found singlehanding very boring.
both my brother and i are very happy with the switch, and hope to get near the top of the fleet at the nationals.
RS 500 (twin wire)
Laser 157607
Laser 85446
Pico 2136

There is only one twin wire boat for lightweights.

Hey going back to sailing in an adult class. At my club most of the youth sailors do as there are so few of us we just intergrate with the adults in our fleets (topaz, laser, laser radial, bosun, enterprise) in fact the lady i'm training with most at the moment in my radial is old enough to be my mum

The 4.7 is perfect for most Ladies (55KG mark). It is a great shame loads more adults do not sail the 4.7 (or medium sized adults the Radial for that matter!)
