	Anyone out there in net-land sail a Laser dinghy ?
	I will be moving from the U.K. to Cape Canaveral,
	Florida in the near future and would appreciate any
	info about Laser fleets in that area.
	Also what price is a new Laser in the States at the
	moment?
	Iam also interested in J24 racing and have raced 
	them from Cowes ,in the Solent (the Yachting capital
	of the world).Are there any fleets near Cape C. or
	would I have to go as far as Fort Lauderdale?
	Looking forward to sailing all year round without
	a wetsuit

****VERY interested in getting fast in my laser.  would appreciate hearing
from you and other LASER freaks.  I workout around Boston Harbor and outer
islands...can't imagine what it's like without a wetsuit!  water temp.
here similar to England:   54 F. two weeks ago with air temp. of 87 F.
LASER group pretty strong around here, do you race?  Rec. any good books
on tactics? (Plenty of tactics books in shops around here)  Ideally,
I would just like to race all the time and learn as I get "sterned".

Good sailing.
