• Close competition is guaranteed by one-design class rules for hull, rig and sails, banning expensive extras. Together with the no-hiking rule, a monitoring system at events to uphold the crew weight limit of 594 lbs. ensures a truly level playing field.
• On its custom built trailer, the SB3 can be towed comfortably behind a normal family car and is easy to handle. The mast is raised without the need for special equipment.
• Mast raising and lowering is made simple. You arrive at your sailing venue and the SB3 can be rigged and ready to sail in under 30 minutes.
• Gnav system—this feature creates additional space for crew maneuvers.
• The SB3 benefits from an unprecedented class race circuit sponsorship.
• The SB3 provides sportsboat sailing for a crew of three, with a maximum crew weight limit to ensure close competition.
• Lifting Keel—provides for easy launch and recovery, and is a dream for towing.
• Low aspect keel and a high ballast ratio make the Laser SB3 a very stiff and stable sportsboat.
• Non-hiking—With the implementation of a no-hiking rule, race results rely on skills and tactics and not on the fitness of the crew. In fact the sit-in bars effectively prevent hiking and promote on-board communication between crew members.
• Low sheet loads—A modern powerful rig with a high aspect gennaker keep sheet loads to a minimum, allowing mixed crews to sail the boat to its best.
• High freeboard and flared gunwales—keeps life onboard extremely dry.
• Open sports boat to be sailed by a crew of three—A comfortable wide-open cockpit with clear uncluttered controls. Finding a crew of three is rarely a problem.
• Identical boats, controlled by strict one-design class rules for hull rig and sails, ensures close competition, and keep running costs to a minimum.
