I just got one of these, I paid $200. for, but just the hull. A friend gave me the mast and boom in good condition, so I went online and was lucky. I have alot of experience restoring cataramans and windsurfers. I have a lot of extra parts I can use, and modify. This video was very helpful for me, I learned some important things. I will fix a big soft spot in the back section, under the traveler line. I'm going to cut the whole section out, bind the two layers with epoxy. Then all around the boat, on the seem, between the top and sides. And these lazers save as complicated as cararamans, which surprised me. I'm anxious to try it out. And thanks for showing the dagger board and rudder, I now know the best size to make them.
Hello West Country Boat Repairs, I have seen your past boat repair videos, they are super helpful to me. Thanks for this helpful video, I'll keep it in mind for when I next buy a sailing boat. I have recently started repairing/building boats with my first video being released today, you're more than welcome to have a look, possibly suggest how I could improve things? Thanks Tom

For the dinghy demonstrated, what would you value it at Pete?
