The Laser is the most popular dinghy sailed around the world, with over 200,000 built since it was launched in 1971. It's an Olympic class sailed by both men and women.     It's a strict one design, with very tight class rules, and has changed very little since its launch.   A new Laser is about £5,000, but there are boats for sale to meet any budget.  The club has four club Lasers for hire.

The Solo is the second most sailed single hander in the UK.  It's a classic one design, designed by Jack Holt in 1956.  It's been built by a variety of boat builders. First built in wood, most modern Solos are now built from FRP (Foam Reinforced Plastic).  There are still plenty of wooden and composite boats around for those who like wooden decks.
