Laser Dinghy Farewell 100RacesBlog

Welcome to my 100 Races blog. In 2012 I bought a Laser dinghy to compete in club races on Sydney Harbour. My goal was to complete 100 race days which I achieved in 2016. In 2017 I bought an RS Aero 7. For the next little while this blog will explore the theme "Its time to update to a well designed modern boat"
