Message from Bruce Kirby, Designer of the Laser
It has been a great pleasure to work with world model yacht champion Jon
Elmaleh in the development of this radio-controlled miniature Laser. The
basic hull shape is a one-quarter scale Laser, but of course to make the boat
work at the much smaller size and with no crew aboard to act as ballast, we
had to develop a model yacht-type keel and rudder and slightly reduce the
sail plan.
I have been overjoyed at the result. The boat sails and handles exceptionally
well over a broad range of wind and sea conditions and is faster than I ever
expected it could be. We have kept the rig and control systems simple so
that, as with any good one-design, success on the race course depends on
the sailor, not the boat. And as a purely recreational sailing model it is quick
to launch and easy to operate.
So climb aboard with your imagination. You will find that the thrill is there, but
your muscles won't get sore and if you don't sail in the rain you will stay dry.
