One of the key advantages that the Topper holds over any pretenders lies in the remarkable sophistication of the manufacturing process. The Topper hull is INJECTION MOULDED with incredible precision, reaching a level of uniformity quite outside the scope of any other production system - whether hand built or mass produced in GRP or rota moulded plastic.

The BYTE is a modern singlehander with characteristics that make her the ideal boat for a wide range of sailors. It is designed by Ian Bruce, better known as the father of the Laser, the man who gave the world its first out-of-the-box performance dinghy.
30 years later and building on that experience, Ian was able, with the BYTE, to answer to the requests of a market that has been looking, for many years, for a boat ideal for sailors of middle to light weight. The BYTE is a highly technical boat yet one which is easily handled by both the up and coming or the experienced lighter weight sailor. It was designed for the weight of the sailor and not for any age or gender. It is the ideal boat for sailors from 40 to 75 kg.

The Class, with the assistance of the boat's designer and its manufacturers, has been pursuing the development of an entirely new rig concept for the Byte for nearly two years. The intent has been
to broaden the weight range of sailor capable of handling the boat in heavy air while, at the same time, attempting to improve its light air performance at no sacrifice to the above. The full record of the development will not be discussed here as it is extensively covered in detail on our Byte Class International Website.

Are you Bytesize?
And what is that weight? With the advent of the extraordinary new CII rig, it's anywhere between 90 and 160 lbs with the optimum all-round, all-weather weight for racing being 120 - 145 lbs. If you’re just out sailing for fun, which is what sailing is all about, your weight really doesn’t matter at all

The successor to the Optimist …
A twin dinghy for junior helmsmen …
L'EQUIPE, the leading sports daily, and Marc LAURENT, French national sailing coach, came up with the best possible answer to the FFVoile Federation's needs with a dinghy that brings together all the qualities required for young helmsmen in the 77 to 110-pound bracket, whether twin-sailing or as main oarsman.
Marc LAURENT, 470 world champion in 1975 and selected for the Montreal Olympic Games, is responsible for the design and finishing of the EQUIPE dinghy, aided and abetted by members of the French national Flying Dutchman team. The EQUIPE is a scaled-down version of the Flying Dutchman, the formula 1 of sailing, and is aimed principally at young regatta entrants. With this in mind, the EQUIPE has two main faces: steady and simple to use for learners, but suitably sharp and speedy across the water for regattas.
The EQUIPE bears many of the hallmarks of its predecessor :
- the genny makes the oarsman position more demanding and therefore interesting,
- the double bunt for the oarsman leaves a clear space that can be quickly and easily adapted,
- the spinnaker snuffer makes handling easier and more tactically diverse.

Laser Racing: You, the elements and the best events in the world.
With literally thousands of event across the UK and the World, the Laser offers everything from an introduction to racing for the first timer to a full program of challenging events for the professional sailor.
Laser Club Programme
Hundreds of sailing clubs offer a Laser racing programme. Most clubs race at weekends (two to three 45 minute/1 hour races) with the season starting in spring and running until the end of autumn. During the summer many clubs also organise midweek evening racing. Winter sailing is growing in popularity and many clubs organise a winter programme.
Laser club sailing is enjoyed by thousands of 'weekend' sailors who keep their Laser at the club just a few metres from the water. It's a convenient option and with rigging taking a matter of minutes, means that Laser sailing can be enjoyed by those with limited free time. Venues vary from picturesque rivers and lakes to estuaries and the open sea. Sailing clubs range from small and voluntarily run clubs to professionally managed clubs with full facilities. Details of Laser clubs can be obtained from the Class Association web sites for each country. For contact details see the Links page.

Laser Radial provides the unique opportunity of sailing the World's favourite Olympic single hander to lightweight, youth and female sailors.
The Laser Radial was initially chosen by ISAF (the Governing Authority of sailing) as the women’s youth class for all events up to 2006. In November 2004 the Laser Radial was confirmed as the new Olympic ladies single hander replacing the Europe. This comes into effect for Beijing 2008.

Laser 4.7 provides the unique opportunity of sailing the World's favourite Olympic single hander. The Laser 4.7 is for young sailors graduating from the Optimist.
Based upon the same hull and equipment, the Laser 4.7 has a 33% smaller sail than the standard Laser and 18% smaller than the Radial.The 4.7m2 sail is matched to a shorter pre-bent lower mast to provide easily controlled power and gust response is managed by automatic power blading of the rig. This makes the 4.7 rig manageable for the smaller sailors with less strength and body mass.

The new, Julian Bethwaite designed, 29er skiff was launched worldwide in 1999 as THE exciting new Youth boat for the 21st century. It is now built in Australia, Argentina, England, South Africa and New Zealand and PS2000 builds the boat for North America, the Caribbean and Bermuda. International acceptance of the boat was assured when ISAF granted the 29er Recognized Status at the November 1999 Annual meeting.
Why another Youth boat?
At the October 1996 ISAF annual meeting, the world body of Yachting selected, after a series of trials, a totally new and exciting type of boat - the 49er - as the new Olympic Class for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia. That boat, designed by Julian Bethwaite, brought skiff sailing, for generations the premier sport in Australia, to the rest of the sailing world. At that moment in time, there was no trainer for this boat and the newest ISAF World Youth boat was over 20 years old!

It is such a relief to sail a keelboat where one can be entirely independent of marinas, lifts and four wheel drive vehicles! The whole launching process is a straightforward two man job.” Mark Rushall. Yachts & Yachting Boat Test
Glenn Bourke - 3 time Laser World Champion:
"In my opinion the Laser SB3 is simply the best small keelboat money can buy. They are good in light airs or a howling blow, they are tactical upwind and down which makes for good racing and, once you launch the masthead spinny then get ready for some blasting downwind action. But what really help set this one design apart from all the others is how easy they are - Easy to find crew, with only three necessary, easy to rig, easy to tow and best of all, easy on the pocket.
