Nigel, Looking through my room back in portsmouth at the weekend, I found a Laser 2 trophy that myself and Dave Annan won last year. I think it was the Delsey...
--James, unless Nigel says anything different I think that this is one of the Nationals Trophies and if so is not needed until August but I have been known to...
James, It actually belongs to the Datchet fleet. I think I should have won it for the Winter Warm Up last week. Please can you arrange to get it back to us...
My club has just bought a clutch of Laser Funs (it was a bargain!). We are planning to use them partly for Junior & senior training, perhaps match racing (not...
When we first adopted Laser 2s at Budworth someone had a Fun. It kept up with the rest of us in conditions where the spinnaker wasn't much advantage, which...
-We had a Fun sailing at the club last year in amongst other Laser 2 Regattas. We found that the most sensible PY to work off of was 1100 try this. If you...
All, If anyone would like to borrow a boat for the Datchet Open next weekend please let me know. My old boat has been sitting in the dinghy park there since...
Mike, I would be so tempted to take you up on your offer (and try not to beat you) but sadly I have far too much work to do for the next few weeks and must put...
Hi all, this is a rather newbie to the Laser II. I want to start using trapeze in my Laser II and I don't know which one is best based on quality/price. I have...
Hi Marcial, Skiff harnesses are more expensive and unnecessary for the Laser 2. I personally use Magic Marine which I find good but find the one which is most...
For a direct answer, you "sit" in a skiff harness and "lie" in a traditional harness. The balance point and support structure are correspondingly different. ...
Was anyone interested in camping at Datchet this weekend !? If you were, let me know and I am sure we can come up with a warmer suggestion. Mike ... From:...

Hi, I am currently looking for 3 laser 2's to replace some that were distroyed late last year at datchet. i will consider almost anything that can sail but the...
Hi, i've just become a Laser 2 owner, however my chosen boat is missing a couple of vital parts being the spinnaker pole and tiller. Can anyone advise on...
For the pole there are maxima for length and diameter, I think 40mm and 2500mm. L2 poles are a lot longer than most other classes so they are not that easy to...
Ian, Thank you for the advice on the tiller and ropes which is very useful! I would definitely be interested in your spinnaker pole, forgive my ignorance but...
-Sorry to disagree with Ian but if you cut your spinnaker halyard down to 12.5m it will be too short and it will not set properly (only at Budworth) I would go...
I'll disagree with both of you! We run the halyard thro' a block at the rear of the cockpit and I always buy and fit 16m, then gradually cut it down to suit -...
OK - back home now and the boat is on the lawn so: My spi halyard is 13.5m. It doesn't lead to the back of the cockpit - follow Mike's advice if you rig it...
