[edit] Laser Radial
The Laser Radial is a popular one-design class of small sailing dinghy built by Vanguard Sailboats. It is a singlehanded boat, meaning that it is sailed by one person. The Laser Radial is a variant of the Laser Standard, with shorter lower mast and reduced sail area, allowing light sailors to sail in heavy winds.
The Laser Radial is an Olympic dinghy for women starting in Beijing 2008.
