Recent rule changes in 2018 to the Laser class included changes to the hiking strap adjustment system.
ILCA stated“The hiking strap supporting line, between the aft end of the hiking strap and the eye straps on the aft face of the cockpit, may be rigged in any manner so that the hiking strap is fixed or adjustable and may include one cleat; one ring, thimble, or shackle; or both to allow for the addition of one cleat and one turning point in the hiking strap support line that are not attached to the hull or the hiking strap”
Adjustable toe strap systems for the Laser sailboat using rope and friction were always a compromise to fit the rules, but with the Clamcleat Aero Cleat supplied by Sailing Chandlery, you can have a system with secure adjustment and a real positive feel.
Introduce a Clamcleat Aero Cleat (CL828-68) into your adjustable toe strap line and you have an extremely effective solution, giving a real feeling of security and confidence. It provides a strong foot hold with consistent settings when cleated and no drop in performance or wear. It is quick and simple to setup and is easily adjustable from both sides of the boat when sailing.
It is the first adjustable toe strap system for the Laser that actually works, allowing me to hike out to the max!

I've used these gloves for gardening jobs for a few years now and they have good grip, flexibility and strength.
Excelent but was too big
Thank you for swapping to 30L
My boat is a Leisure18 built 1996 and I have just replaced the Cam Cleats with the identical model after they have probably been on since new.
Ive owned her since 2011. Let's hope the new ones live up to that.
It’s a well thought through cover that’s robust and with fastening clips it’s easier to put off and on. Most of the fastening straps don’t go full width, so easier still. Compared to the £100 one I had before that shredded within 6 months, this is far far superior.
10 out of 10. Exactly what wanted. Good quality and speedily delivered without any hassle.
Great product
Fast service
Good price
Thanks again always worth trawling through he off cuts. The off cuts are good quality and always worth a look if you need some.
Good advice regards flag staff rope on telephone, prompt delivery at a fare price.
Arrived quickly. Also replaced another item which was the wrong sizewith no fuss at all.
Really good service.
Perfect for getting out of wet clothes, and a great fit.
Ordered the rope I needed in the size I wanted. Delivered promptly and correctly.
Would definitely use again.
Thank you
I like the side entry low profile of these cleats for any line/rope that doesn’t need a fairlead such as external halyards, furling lines etc.
Absolutely brilliant service from sailing chandlery. The bag is excellent quality and spacious. Would highly recommend.
Nice wetsuit
This jacket is fantastic, it's warm (must wear layers) and defo waterproof, Also its made to last many years of hard use. i will be ordering the bib n brace very soon.
