Single-handed International series sailing dinghy : LASER Laser 4.7
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.
