Laser 4000

Laser 4000

The Laser 4000 was designed in 1994 by yacht designer Phil Morrison. It is a sloop rigged dinghy made out of fiberglass. It features a single trapeze as well as a open, self-draining cockpit. Instead of a convential kicking strap it features a gnav system, which pushes down on the boom from the top, instead of pulling from the bottom. This allows greater space for the crew to move from side to side. Its one design weight-equalised system enables physically differing sailors to compete on a level playing field.
