Free Laser Dinghy to Train Non Sailing Youths

18th April 2011
Free Laser Dinghy to Train Non Sailing Youths
Following our recent articles on youth sailing, a sailor, who bought a Laser Radial sailing dinghy four years ago and used it only once, is kindly offering the boat free to an organisation who could put it to good use for youth sail training.
The boat (valued around €2000) has all the Laser go fast string, plus a launching trolley, a Silva compass and a Gorilla tiller.  The donor in question has told afloat.ie "I don't know any organisation that might use it to introduce sailing to non–sailing youth, but if one exists, I would be delighted to give this boat to them for free". If you know of such an organisation or a worthy home for this generous offer please email the details to: [email protected], putting 'Laser Youth Boat' in the subject line.  Alternatively leave a comment below.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
