Class Association
Recreational and training class without a formal international racing association, supported through sailing school and club programs

History

Laser Performance offered the Pico Race as a higher performance rig on the standard Pico hull, swapping in a larger, fully battened main for sailors who had outgrown the standard rig's power. The hull, construction and jib are unchanged from the standard Pico.

Sailing Characteristics

The larger main gives noticeably more drive in light and moderate air while the hull keeps the same stability and durability, making it a natural step for a sailor moving from Pico tuition into club racing.

Racing Context

Sailed in club level Pico racing series and used as a bridge boat between Bug or Pico tuition and two sail classes like the Feva or 420.
