Hi all Wondering if I would be heavy enough for the laser standard rig.

Laser pico crew weight. If youre doing leisure sailing these crew weights are far higher. A Laser 47 has a recommended crew weight of 772 121 lbs 35 55 kg. Most guys i see seem to be what i think is light for the full rig ie 150-160 pounds.

The Pico is a 116 35m dinghy designed by Jo Richards United Kingdom. In these boats would be appreciated. Im 15 60-65kg Been awhile since I checked but am reasonably tall 510 ish and my dad says I would be all right in the standard rig in most winds and have quite an advantage over the radials in the light stuff.

Draft ftm 290 088. Laser 706m2 Laser Radial 576m2 Laser 47 470m2 The Lasers you see and sail on these beaches are built to exactly the same specification as the Lasers in the Olympic Games. She is built since 1995 by Laser.

Radial is more my range from what I have seen. Length 423m Beam 142m Hull Weight 59kg Sail areas. Laser pico specs.

Interestingly SB3s weight limit at 270kgs while the Etchells is at 285kgs average weight of 95kgs each. With a weight of just 131 pounds this is an easily car-toppable boat. I guess the big guys like DC wouldnt be able to do it if it was less.

The ideal weight for a standard rig sailor is around 190 lbs Im about 130 lol. Depending on local conditions you can add 22. Lighter Pico is vey tempting.
