Start the 2025 Sailing Season with a New Laser.
Laser and the International Laser Class Association - (ILCA) have had some changes over the last few years and it has become a bit confusing for those not following.
Laser and ILCA are essentially the same boat and same hull design still with three rig options, just with different names. In early 2019 the boat brand sail insignia changed from the Laser Starburst to the ILCA Logo and ILCA named boats started to roll out.
Sailing Chandlery sell the Devoti ILCA and our new Laser boat package provides you with a brand new top of the range, top quality Laser sailing dinghy. A complete boat including a launching trolley and breathable boat cover
You don't have to buy a full boat package, we also sell boats without a trolley and cover, or you can buy just a hull If you would like to update an older boat.
Originally designed in 1969 the boat was initially designed as a car toppable sailing dinghy and its journey over the years led to the dinghy being the Olympic class of choice for both men and women.
The Laser has become the world's most popular sailing dinghy, you would be hard pushed to visit any dinghy sailing club across the World that doesn't have a Laser in their dinghy park.
The reason the Laser dinghy is popular is because of its flexibility, the three rig options allow sailors from 35kg up to fully grown adults to sail the same hull but with different sail variations. The rigs are very easy to swap and means you can grow with the boat or adjust the rig to the conditions to get your perfect sailing experience.
Whether you're looking for a boat to sail casually, or a boat to race competitively it's very likely the Laser will meet your needs.
Weight Range - 35-55kgs
Sail Area - 4.7 Square Meter
Laser 4.7 / ILCA 4 Boat Package
Weight Range - 55-70kgs
Sail Area - 5.76 Square Meter
Laser Radial / ILCA 6 Boat Package

Mast tape was delivered promptly, and whilst it does not look like much, it works brilliantly on my older Laser with significant wear on both the mast and hull
Had the boom and mast in stock. Order processed quickly, great service and local so could pick them up. Friendly and helpful staff as always. Thank you
Ordered this item for an alternative use for my young boy who loves playing spiderman and wrapping/tying objects up with different coloured string/rope.
Arrived quickly and with a fab assortment of different ropes. Perfect for the purpose of my purchase.
Thank you.
Good back, like the two separate pockets for wet and dry gear, however i find the wet pocket zip does seem to get stuck and would like the back to have straps like a rucksack so you can carry it on your back, other than that extremely happy with the 90l as it gives me tonnes of space for all my sailing gear
Delivered on time after chatting by phone to a very helpful person at Sailing chandlery. Absolutely no complaint with this Company and will continue to use them for my sailing needs.
I needed replacement Q Locks (a great product). Arrived in under 48 hours from ordering
A chandlery was the only place I could think where to get this. It's actually the strengthen the post for our washing line the steel wire (hoops both ends fitting diagonally from top of clothes post to base of another post 2 meters away supporting trellis between. The length of steel wire will soon disappear in the foliage & should provide addition structural support for many years.
Service was excellent with the length being ready before the expected date.
Worn these for a few races now and they have been excellent. Really high performing. They are grippy and super supportive even without using the zhik toe straps. I’ve raved about them so much that my crew and colleagues at the club have now also bought the same ones
Ordered this when my son's training sail got rippd in action. Pleased to find it here 20% cheaper than anywhere else and as always delivered correctly and in great time. Thankyou
The bag is well made and large enough for halyards as well as other items. I have used the 3M fixings but these are not really adequate and so the bags will need to be screwed in place.
I would buy again.
Delivery was on time. The O rings fitted the hatches on my topper topaz. No issues excellent service
I ordered the hiking pads for my son who was very pleased with them. The order was delivered within a few days. I’ve ordered items before from sailing chandlery and have not been disappointed with the service I received. Thank you
Loads of space in this bag for all of my kit, extra pockets are very helpful and the compartment inside keeps my dry and wet kit apart. Would recommend.
Not actually for a Topper but for a sailing canoe I have built. Pleased with the quality, delivered promptly, just the job thank you!
I’m using this with the Clamcleat CL211 and they pair perfectly. Strong and with the stiffness that I was looking for. Really pleased with the purchase and excellent quick service.
