ZIM ILCA 4. 6. 7

Multiple sailboats with white sails and red and blue markings on the sails, lined up closely on the water during a sailing race.

The world’s most popular adult and youth racing class.

Originally known as the Laser, the ILCA dinghy is a single-handed racing dinghy. The biggest attraction of the ILCA dinghy is that it is protected by strict one-design class rules, which means that no changes are allowed to the boat unless they are specifically permitted in the rules. The result is that all ILCA boats are virtually identical, whether they are brand-new or 10 years old, making it the sailor that wins the race – not the boat.

It is a single-handed Olympic-class boat for both men and women and is sailed at club, national, and international levels. With over 225,000 boats in 140 countries, it is the world’s most popular adult and youth racing sailboat.

One of the reasons the ILCA dinghy is so popular is the boat’s sheer simplicity. The two-part free-standing mast and sleeved sail make the boat easy to rig, and its lightweight hull makes it easy to carry and cartop.

Our ZIM ILCA’s come complete with hull, foils, mast, and sail.
Hull options include Club 4,6, and 7. Race 4,6, and 7 and finally Pro 4, 6 and 7. Please inquire for pricing and optional equipment and parts.
