Laser Fleet

 The Laser fleet was established in 2007 as a branch of the Youth Foundation and from the beginning had an adult segment.

For the past several years it has had its own committee boat supplied by the sailing club, its own course, and a race time different from the other fleets.

Times for the Laser races are 10 AM to noon on Saturday and Sunday of Club Race weekends plus during the summer every other weekend.

Laser fleet youth pay the youth foundation a yearly membership fee and a monthly charge for coaching on Saturday.

The Lasers have three rigs. The original is called the “full rig“ and is the Olympic single handed men’s boat.  A second rig on the same hull is the “radial rig” which is on shorter mast and the seams run radially from the clew of the sail.  It is the Olympic women’s single handed boat.  The third rig is the“4.7” which is again on an even shorter mast and does not extend as far out on the boom.  It has a sail area of 4.7 square meters and was designed to pick up 15 year old sailors coming out of the Optimist program.

The Youth foundation has seven Lasers and access to all rigs.  When the youth sailors use the radial and 4.7rigs the Race Committee takes times and the Portsmouth corrections are applied to the finishes.  The Youth foundation 420s are invited to sail with the Lasers. When they have three or more boat they have their own start. When less, they start with the laser group.

THE INTERNATIONAL NOTE…  On Sunday afternoon Marc Solal took a Chinese friend out on his Laser.  This friend works for the same company that our French Marc Solal does.   Marc’s Laser was built in Brazil and came to us from Puerto Rica.  Marc had not been sailing double before so when Sam was picking up the marks he motored around to keep track of them so we would not have an international incident with the FRENCH AND THE CHINESE ON THE BOAT FROM BRAZIL.

Finishes for November 17 and 18, 2012

Two windy days with the youth sailing radials and Max a 4.7 received time corrections on Saturday so if you remember what your place was,  you might find it just a little changed.   We had six races, but the youth were all out on their first little race so I dropped that and only listed the last five races.  It doesn’t really change things except to get the youth into the scoring better.  We all sailed radials on Sunday so no corrections there.

Darcy and Claire are practicing for the regatta next week and so were sailing a 420.  They were doing so well I added them to the Laser list. Two second places and that should be a slower boat—Oh, yes they picked up a lot on corrected time.

Seven youth sailed with us on Saturday and five in radials and two in 4.7’s.  When I did corrected times Luke moved into second place in the first race while Claire in a 4.7 moved into 5. In the second race Darcy Jensen moved up to second.  In the third race Darcy moved to second again, Max in 4.7 up to 5 and Luke up to 6. In the fourth race Luke moved to first. In the last race Cameron moved to first. So we had enough wind to get most everyone up to hull speed.

On Sunday everyone sailed a full rig.  Easier for RC and score keeper.
