With nearly eleven thousand boats worldwide, the International Laser II has entered a new chapter in its history. In this its 30th year, the existing new boats and spares have been acquired by Sailboats.co.uk (Northampton Sailboats), who intend to promote the class on its core values of ‘affordable, fun racing’.
After several years of uncertainty over the future of this well loved boat, the UK Laser II
Class Association fully supports this move and looks forward to many more years of
competitive, worldwide Laser II racing.
Sailboats.co.uk said: "Northampton Sailboats are delighted to be involved with the Laser II Class and look to be actively involved in the future; we have a large stock of spares with more on order. We will be actively working with the current Laser Performance Dealers both in the UK and Overseas."
