‍ Key Takeaways

  • Prices vary from $900 to $13,000 depending on model, age, new, and used
  • Routine maintenance and other factors will contribute to Laser prices overall

‍ A Laser sailboat is a popular dinghy used for races and owning one should not break the bank. But how much does a Laser sailboat cost?

Someone can purchase a new Laser sailboat for around $3,300 to $13,000. Used Laser sailboats will cost approximately $2,000 to $6,000. The pricing is typically determined by the year of manufacture, the type of Laser model, and the overall condition.

A variety of factors will influence costs for a Laser sailboat and you will need to narrow down your options based on budget and the intended use of the Laser. According to sailboat listings websites you can find quality used Lasers for reasonable prices.

‍ The Real Cost of a Laser Sailboat

The cost of a new and a used Laser varies unless it is in good condition for used Lasers. The Laser class and boat type will affect the price depending on if you intend to race or just have fun.

Consider aiming for one that best fits your desired activity goal on the water if you need to know which type of Laser boat you want to own. Depending on the route you want to go when purchasing one you can save some money.

Depending on the dealer you buy it from and the model will significantly affect the price. A new Laser sailboat can range up to $13,000 for a Bahia Gennaker and start as low as $6,000 for an XD Standard . A new Sunfish (a Laser sailboat not for racing) can range up to $5,000.

You have the benefit of a boat that is ready to sail and you do not have to worry about previous issues from other owners when purchasing a new Laser. There are Laser dinghies that are designed for racing to choose from. These boats include:

  • Laser XD Standard
  • Laser XD Radial
  • Laser XD 4.7

Each one of those starts at around $6,000. They can go up in price depending on any additional features to your purchase so research which one you like the best.

Used Lasers

A used Laser sailboat will vary in price from $200 (damaged or needs work) to $15,000 (rare or harder-to-find models). When you purchase a used Laser it will require a lot more homework to ensure the Laser dinghy is in good shape. Purchasing a used Sunfish can cost anywhere from $900 to $1,300.

The good news about used Lasers is that you get a fairly decent amount of boaters trying to sell one online. There are plenty of other options to help with your budget even though you might not find a specific year built in mind.

To save money you should search nationwide for deals. Feel free to travel a few states away to grab the perfect arrangement for a Laser dinghy.

Sailboat ownership incurs ongoing insurance expenses for potential harm to:

  • Other boats

Coverage costs are based on factors like boat age and size. Comparison shopping can aid in finding the best coverage rates and average annual premiums of $611 in places like Florida.

Older and medium-sized sailboats have less expensive insurance. Laser boats will cost less than a typical sailboat since it is less than 20 feet.

Marina Slips

Marina slip fees vary from $500 to $5,000 for six months and will have lower rates for boats under 30 feet. Stowing a sailboat on dry land can prove to be:

  • Cost-effective
  • Prevents bottom growth
  • Increases longevity

Certain marinas require upfront deposits and provide cheaper dock space with limited amenities. If you want to skip a marina slip you could opt for a trailer and you would need a place to store the boat if you do not have adequate space. Those two factors could be thousands of dollars upfront if you do not have a trailer.

Fees from Sailing Club

Newbie sailors can benefit from sailboat clubs since they offer:

  • Racing opportunities
  • Sense of community

Expensive initiation fees could range from $1,000 to $4,000 and annual fees of $500 to $1,000 include extras like meals and lockers.

Another option is taking sailing lessons with a qualified instructor to gain water confidence. A club will likely give you access to certain sailing events or other opportunities to join on the water so keep that in mind when weighing your options.

Considering storage and trailer fees is important when owning a boat. Free on-land storage for small sailboats is possible but most require payment. Open storage lots are cheaper than marina slips but larger boats have fewer options.

Winter storage is recommended to protect against cold temperatures. If you do not live near cold climates you should still consider dry storage for parts of the year when not in use.

Routine Maintenance

Maintaining a boat's quality and maintenance history affects upkeep costs. You can prevent most high expenses by avoiding damage and proper use of the boat.

Consistent annual maintenance costs result from buying a boat that has been maintained well or making sure you can give the time and effort to maintain your new boat. One example that could save money in the short term is that you store sails to save replacement costs.

Costly failures can be prevented with proper planning and common sense. Doing the repairs yourself will save you money as long as you do them correctly and hiring someone will double the cost. Maintaining a boat under 30 feet typically costs about $2,000 per year to maintain.

How to Find Used Laser Sailboats?

Finding a used Laser sailboat can help you save thousands of dollars depending on the model and age of the boat. Laser sailors will need to do a little more homework if they wish to compete in Laser sailing.

There are plenty of deals to buy good quality boats whether it is Laser dinghies or a Sunfish. Checking local marinas or places that store boats or anything besides a dealer could be your best bet. Most Laser sailboats should still hold their value if the owner showed them some love over the years.

Here are some tips for finding the best deal on a Laser boat.

  • Properly examine the hull for a smooth surface without damages or heavy marks
  • Check for consistent firmness and avoid areas that feel soft
  • Opt for dry-sailed boats that were kept on land and stored for protection
  • Watch out for water saturation and extra weight caused by improper storage
  • Look for a weight similar to the manufacturer's dry weight to get the best performance
  • If you find a used Sunfish you should aim for a weight that matches new boats for racing intentions

Why Would You Purchase a Laser Sailboat?

The Laser is a widely acclaimed adult racing boat that features a standardized box one design that guarantees fair competition for Laser sailing. This is solely dependent on the sailor's abilities and not the boat.

Racing with a Laser sailboat is a unique experience. With its demanding athleticism, subtle steering, trimming techniques, and tactical expertise, it challenges even the most skilled Laser sailors. Sailors of different ages and skill levels compete in the Laser sailboat.

These are available in two hardware versions known as XD for racing enthusiasts and Race for recreational and club sailing. Both versions offer three rig options to accommodate athletes of different sizes and ages such as:

Let customers speak for us

Excellent product for my shooting flags so I can see how the windage is.

Great product

Used 2 of these to replace the little plastic ones on a supernova tiller. Much better and now pull in the right direction

This is the perfect tool to assist in tightening my Dart Trampoline. It grips the rope far better than you can with your hands.

After having my Previous Superwarm X Suit for over 5 years whilst working as a watersports instructor this is a great improvement over the previous suit. Warmer and softer linning throughout the inside of the suit and I will continue to use the suit all year round like my old suit.

Someone at the club “borrowed “ one of my Solo’s bungs. I bought two so now I have a spare.

Great to have something that goes over everything if a quick solution is required

had ordered one on amazon before, received the wrong size received the correct size now :)

A simple moulded part of good quality, supplied quickly and well packed.

Turned out that I had ordered the wrong make, my camcleats being Allen not Harken, however by drilling the two fixings holes out by 1mm and filing two small notches they fitted perfectly.

Super helpful company. Attentive, and quick to deliver.

Second time I have use for this purpose. Really easy to attach to alloy mast and so easy and positive to operate.

How Much Does A Laser Sailboat Cost? New vs Old

laser sailboat new price

The cost of a laser sailboat can vary. It’s just like buying a car, you half to shop around for the best deal.

A Laser sailboat new will cost anywhere from $5000 to $6000. A used Laser sailboat will cost you between $2000 and $6000. The price of the boat will depend on the year it was built and the condition it is in.

Buying a laser is a fairly simple process. Since they are so small it is much easier to transport. A lot of them do come with trailers, but some do not. Just be sure you have a way to move it when needed. The laser is 14 feet long. To help compare to a truck, a long bed truck is usually 8 feet.

If you really want to save some money, you should look all over the country. I can find some good deals on laser sailboats right now, but they are about three states away. If you are willing to drive to the boat and pick it up, you could save a thousand bucks or two.

Purchasing A Laser Sailboat

If you have decided to get into laser sailing, you will need a boat. The question is do you buy used or new? That will depend on your budget and possibly, your intended use. The intended use will either be racing, recreational, or both. The good thing is, as long as the boat is well kept and In good condition, it will work for both options.

When it comes to buying a used laser, there are a few things you need to check.

The first thing to check is the hull. Make sure it is solid and has no holes or soft spots. The next thing to check is to see if it comes with everything you need. I once was given a laser boat, but it was just the hull and nothing else. I actually ended up selling it. It was not a project I wanted to take on. I wish I had it today though.

When purchasing a used laser, you may be asking how old it is.

2019216183 – 217579
2020217580 – PRESENT

The list above should help you identify the year of your laser sailboat. If the number is not on this list it must be much older.

The Parts Of A Laser Sailboat

The laser has a few different parts that you need to know about.

First, we have the mast. The mast is a two-part mast that can be adjusted depending on the size of the sail you are using. It gets set into the mast step, which is a hole in the hull where the mast goes.

Second, we have the sails. There are 3 different sizes of sails you can use on your laser. The size will depend on your weight. You need to have good balance for the laser sailboat and sail size will help accomplish this. The three sails are listed below:

3 Laser Sail Types

  • Standard Sail – sail size 7.06 meters, crew size 154lbs +
  • Radial Sail – sail size 5.76 meters, crew size 121-154lbs
  • 4.7 Sail (smallest) – sail size 4.7 meters, crew size 77-121lbs

You can also use the smaller sails for high winds. Each sail will also contain 3 battens.

Battens aren’t necessary, but they do help support the leech. To find out more about battens read the article Can You Sail Without Battens?

The third is the daggerboard. The daggerboard goes down through a slot in the hull. You put it all the way down for upwind, up for downwind, and middle for reaching. The daggerboard is a type of keel.

Fourth is the rudder. the rudder will be down when sailing and needs to be kept tight. If it kicks up on you, you will lose the ability to steer the boat.

The fifth part of the boat is the boom. You will not be able to use your sails without the boom. It is very similar looking to the mast. Just make sure when you purchase your boat, that you have both the mast and the boom.

The sixth and final part you need is the tiller. The tiller is what controls your rudder and allows you to steer the boat. You will also want a tiller extender. The extender will allow you to control the boat when leaning out over the high side for balance.

Those 6 parts are the most necessary components to check for when purchasing a laser sailboat. You will also need the lines for raising and lowering sails, but I’m sure you know about those.

My Final Thoughts About The Laser Sailboat

laser sailboat new price

The laser sailboat is a lot of fun for beginners and experienced sailors. They are fairly cheap and easy to use. There is a part of balance required to use them, but it should come pretty easy with some practice. I would love to own a laser, but at this time I do not. They are great for racing as well. If you want to go fast and love competition, I highly recommend a laser sailboat. I hope this article helped answer some of your laser questions and if you have more, please reach out to us! Cheers!

Sunfish – Race Version

$ 6,150.00

“The Sunfish is pure sailing—the sail in the wind, the board in the water, and you in the hull in between—one hand on the tiller, the other on the sheet and the wind in your hair. Pure sailboat racing, too. For the racing sailor, it is the essence of yacht racing. It was the first truly one-design boat, rigidly controlled by the manufacturer, with even the sails limited to one loft (for measured sails) and very little that could be done in the way of adding expensive go-fasts. No need for a new set of sails every year. No need to keep buying or changing expensive hardware to keep up with the latest sailing theory.” – Will White

Most popular sailboat ever built:

Sunfish This is the classic boat you grew up with. World class racers such as Dennis Conner, of America’s Cup fame, and Gary Hoyt, who developed the Freedom class and won the first Sunfish worlds in 1972, learned to sail at the tiller of the Sunfish.

Will White’s  “The Sunfish Book” , “The Sunfish is pure sailing—the sail in the wind, the board in the water, and you in the hull in between—one hand on the tiller, the other on the sheet and the wind in your hair.

The Sunfish combines easy rigging and manageability for a comfortable and hassle-free sailing experience. This is the sailboat loved by all. Designed in 1952 as the ultimate beach craft, the Sunfish sailboat is still a favourite with all ages. This maintenance free boat holds its resale value thanks to its robust construction, highlighted by hard chines and a flat underbody. The Sunfish can be stored almost anywhere and is a snap to car-top, making it a popular international class and easy to transport to your favourite beach for family fun.

laser sailboat new price

The Sunfish has its roots planted firmly in 1947 in Waterbury, Connecticut. Friends Alexander “Al” Bryan and Cortlandt “Cort” Heyniger (the Al and Cort in Alcort) pondered, “How to put a sail on a surfboard?” The answer involved a rejected design for American Red Cross waterfront rescue surfboards, leading to the Sailfish – a lateen rigged, flat-decked, plywood marvel. In 1951, Bryan’s pregnant wife found its flat deck somewhat uncomfortable. The addition of a cockpit and widening of the hull created the Sunfish. The logo was created by Heyniger, who traced a nickel and added fins, the tail and an eye. Early wood Sailfish and Sunfish were available assembled or as kits. In 1959 the introduction of fiberglass and the low cost and ease of production led to the proliferation of Sunfish everywhere. Other improvements included aluminium spars replacing spruce, Dacron sails replacing cotton, ash replacing mahogany for tillers, resulting in increased speed, performance and reliability. Sunfish racing started almost as quickly as two or three boats came together – the first North American Championship was 1963, the first Midwinters was 1965.
