The 2000 ''(formally the Laser 2000)'' is a performance sailing dinghy designed by Phil Morrison and currently sold by RS Sailing. It combines a traditional GRP hull and foam sandwich deck moulding with a modern asymmetric rig including a furling jib, reefing mainsail and single line gennaker hoist system. A high boom provides plenty of headroom whilst the self-draining cockpit keeps the crew dry and drains quickly should the boat capsize. The 2000 has established an enviable record as a resilient and versatile design; docile and forgiving for novices yet an exhilarating sail for more advanced sailors. Since its introduction in 1998 more than 2,200 boats have been built. ==History== The 2000 was commissioned by Performance Sailcraft and designed by Phil Morrison in 1997 and launched in 1998. The design was informed by Morrison's earlier experimental Gemini design he had designed and built with Bill Twine and Nick Lightbody at Berwick in Sussex UK in 1979. Only 3 Geminis were constructed. The 2000 external hull shape is very similar to the Gemini but the construction and rig is much improved. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2000 (dinghy)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
