    Hello,

    Does anyone know anything about the laser 4000. Is it a good boat? What sort of speeds does it do? Is it difficult to sail??

    I really don't know, maybe up to about 15 knots - nothing as fast as the catamaran I race :D:D:D

    You got me thinking, so I did a search. Check out: http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2400&PN=1
    There's a lot of discussion on the 4000. Some guy there says that he got 18.2knots out of it. Still not as fast as my Cat :cool:
