Seller's Description

A 2019 Ovington Laser for sale. I have owned/raced this boat for the past 4 years, it is well set up for racing and is fully class compliant. It has been a great boat to sail but unfortunately I don’t have the time to devote to it anymore in college due to the focus on racing FJs and 420s.

It has been well maintained, cleaned regularly and always stored under a cover or inside a garage. Running rigging has been replaced regularly.

Equipment: Hull (1)

Made in 2020 in the UK under the Laser Trademark, Hull and Sail Number both 216512 Hull Plug Replaced in 2024 Some wear and tear on the rail over the course of 4 years.

Foils (2) Centerboard and Rudder both made in the UK in 2020 as well Both the Centerboard and Rudder are in excellent shape with no damage Tiller Extension (1) Carbon Fiber Roster Aftermarket Tiller Extension, 2022 Like New Spars (4) Carbon Fiber Top Section, 2020, compatible with any sail configuration Carbon Fiber Radial Bottom Section, 2022 Aluminum Full Rig Bottom Section, unknown year but in good condition Aluminum Boom, 2020, compatible with any sail configuration

Sails (4)

2 radial practice sails, both have been used extensively but are in good structural condition meaning that they are great for practice and day sailing but will have a slight impact on performance, mostly pointing, when racing. The first one is a 2020 sail which was used at the World Championship before I bought the boat which I used for practice and racing for the first year The second one is a 2022 sail which was used exclusively as a race sail for roughly a year before it became a practice sail 1 Radial Race Sail from 2023, it has been used for roughly 4 events and is in good shape 1 Full Rig Practice Sail, Unknown Year, decent shape

Rigging

Mainsheet Mainsheet was replaced in 2023 after the original started wearing and is in great shape, the original is also included Vang The Vang Assembly is in great shape and has been regularly washed in freshwater alongside the rest of the boat after use. Both lines used in the vang have been replaced numerous times, most recently in 2023, due to wear and stretching, currently in great shape Outhaul The original outhaul is still in use and showing minimal signs of wear, blocks are all in good shape Cunningham The lines for the Cunningham were just replaced in 2024, the blocks are in good shape Traveler The line for the Traveler was just replaced in 2024, the cleat are in great shape Other lines Various other lines which have been replaced are included, varying quality Hiking Strap Aftermarket Zhik Hiking Strap replaced the original which was wearing out in 2023, it is in great shape and a very useful asset to have given the extra grip

Any questions about quality, quantity or otherwise of any part of the boat? Please call me at (805) 318-0836 and I will be happy to explain, send additional photos or set up an in-person visit!

Delivery to any part of Southern California between Santa Barbara and San Diego.

Calculations

Hull Speed
?

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

?
Classic formula: ?
Sail Area/Displacement
?

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
?
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
?

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

?
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
?

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
?
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
?

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
?
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
?

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
?
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
