ILCA (previous Laser)

The ilca is one of the most popular single-handed dinghies in the world. A commonly cited reason for its popularity is that it is robust, and simple to rig and sail. The Laser also provides very competitive racing due to the very tight class association controls which eliminate differences in hull, sails and equipment.
