The beauty of the Laser sailing dinghy is that with a few different items you can convert the same hull from the smaller 4.7 rig, to a radial and then into the larger standard rig.
This conversion is completed by swapping out mast sections and sails to get to your ideal Laser rig for the conditions, your weight or your stage of sailing experience.
The Laser top mast is the consistent part of the mast which you keep when you use all three of the Laser rigs.
There are two versions of the Laser top mast, the traditional aluminium version and then the newer, updated and longer lasting carbon top section.
With the Laser bottom mast there are three options, all made from aluminium and this is what adjusts the mast height allowing for the 4.7, radial and standard rigs to be used on your Laser dinghy.
The standard and radial bottom sections are straight metal sections where the 4.7 has a slight bend in the section.
All of these sections fit into the mast base hole on the desk and the top section slots into these to make a complete Laser mast.
You can view all of our available Laser masts on our dedicated collection page.
Unfortunately with the length of the mast sections they can be expensive to ship to you. Why not look out for which events we'll be at next or if you're local to Essex why not collect from us at a convenient time?
If you've got any questions about any of the Laser masts and spars mentioned in this article, or about anything else Laser related then give us a call, we are always happy to talk you through the options.
Slides easily through the blocks whilst providing firm grip
Item has brilliant bounce back ability, thanks
Simple to fit and makes launching and recovery simple. Well worth the investment
Quality material and design enables my lug sail to be stowed securely on it's spars
Great wide and grippy tyres for a shingle/sharp launching area and compound for an RS400.
Receive fantastic service couldn’t help any more if they tried. Arranged for me to collect my order at a time that suited even when it was outside of working hours. Much appreciated, thank you sailing Chandlery.
Excellent gloves, perhaps the best I have used. The fingers are long enough to provide protection from sheets/halyards and fit nicely so that ropes cannot get between the glove and finger. If the winter gloves are any guide they should also be very durable.
really happy with these! the thick material means that I will be warm whilst sailing, and the 3 finger coverage allows mobility and warmth on the water. the added grip will really help on the heavy wind reaches, can't wait to test them out this weekend. shipping was really quick, with a sweet included in my order thank you.
As always, great stock, quick delivery, perfect, thank you
The footprint of these is much more than standard trolley wheels so they roll on sand much easier.
These Falker Burgees are essential for our training fleet, giving an instant indication of apparent wind direction.
Made of stainless steel they do not corrode, and are easy to fit into the mast bracket.
It is a shame the sail part is not available as a spare as this part does not last forever, unlike the ss frame.
Nice product.
Arrived quickly and fits very well
Fast, efficient service and the lightweight trolley is perfect for my needs.
We needed to change the size and it looks like they will change the Hikers for a size up. Thank you very much
