Laser dinghies

(2 products)

The Laser dinghy is one of the world's most popular single-handed dinghies and is ideal for both recreational sailors and regattas. As an Olympic class, it impresses with its simple technology, low weight, and plenty of sailing fun—a perfect mix for ambitious sailors of all ages.

  • Laser dinghies – The most popular single-handed class for adults

    The Laser was developed in 1970 by American Bruce Kirby as a single-handed dinghy. The goal was a cost-effective and easy-to-maintain boat that still offered plenty of sailing fun. The design is deliberately simple, yet makes the Laser a sensitive and sporty boat. As a one-design class, almost all features are standardized, making the Laser particularly fair and beginner-friendly in regattas.

  • Olympic and globally established

    The Laser quickly became the most popular boat class for adults – worldwide and in all waters. This success led to the Laser becoming an Olympic class. Since 2008, the Laser Radial has also been an official Olympic single-handed class for women. The combination of performance, simple technology, and standardized equipment makes the Laser ideal for single-handed training and racing.

  • Flexible thanks to modular mast and sail system

    A major advantage of the Laser is its variable rig: The same hull can be equipped with different mast sections and sail sizes. This allows the dinghy to be adapted to different weight classes and sailing experience levels. This makes the Laser versatile – from youth training to professional competition sailing.

    Laser Standard: Mast height 5.37 m, sail area 7.06 m², weight 65 kg

    Laser Radial: Same mast height, but with more flexible mast base and 5.7 m² sail area

    Laser 4.7: Sail area 4.7 m², ideal for young people and lighter sailors

  • Robust, easy to transport & made of GRP

    The hull is made of glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) – sturdy and durable. With a length of 4.23 m and a width of 1.37 m, the Laser is compact enough to be easily transported on the roof of a car. This makes it ideal for sailors who want to travel flexibly between sailing areas.
