Laser 13 family dinghy. Very stable dinghy with stainless steel centerboard. Can be left at anchor (stable and self-bailing).

The Laser 13 is the perfect family touring dinghy. Take the boat with you to your vacation destination, rig it on your own in five minutes (goat mast), launch it easily and leave it at anchor during your stay!

All that's left for you to do is enjoy a safe and enjoyable ride with family, friends or even solo! The sturdy motor chair makes harbor maneuvers a breeze.

Its shallow draft allows you to disembark on islands for a picnic or to sleep at anchor. It has all the features of a large houseboat, without the drawbacks! You don't need a berth, and you can do all the handling yourself. This type of sailboat is therefore a simpler, more economical and more ecological solution than buying a houseboat.

Family dinghy (stable, almost impossible to capsize, doesn't get wet) English for 4 people. In the same concept as the Caravelle or Skellig. Can be sailed or motorized. Ideal for family cruising (possibility of camping on the boat with a small tent) over several days (watertight lockers for stowing gear).

The Laser 13 was designed by Laser, a well-known dinghy builder, in response to demand from families and sailing schools for a more modern version of the Wayfarer. This boat has been designed to enable a single person to carry out all maneuvers (light, easy to handle, simple and safe). This last criterion is useful for single-handed sailing, or to enable the more experienced skipper to take along a crew of beginners.

A boat similar in spirit to the Caravelle, but without the Caravelle's disadvantages. Much lighter, faster, more versatile and safer. It belongs to a special category of dinghies known as "rando" dinghies. This category is unique. They are not to be confused with the sporty dinghies so well known in sailing centers. The approach to sailing with rando dinghies allows you to concentrate on the pleasure of sailing, and forget all the worries and complexity that can be involved in setting up a more conventional sailboat (masting alone possible in a minute, neoprene not compulsory).
