The Laser Radial is a Laser with a smaller sail
and shorter mast. It is still part of the strict one design Laser
principle. If you're between 55 and 65 kgs, the Laser Radial rig
has been designed especially for you. Its bendy mast and radial
cut sail allow you to go out in strong winds and still be in full
control. The radial cut sail was designed so that people under 65kg,
would be competitive in serious racing. The result is a super fast
rig that is suitable for both women and men lightweights in both
strong and light winds. You'll be amazed how easily the Laser Radial
handles.
Not only is the Laser Radial fast and exciting
to sail but it is completely interchangable with the Laser and the
Laser 4.7, as only the sail and lower mast are different, the remainder
of the Laser is unchanged. That means on cruising days or when you
bring a friend along, you just switch rigs. You get three boats
for little more than the price of one. You get more for your money
when you buy a Laser.
