The Laser 28 represents a daring chapter in the history of Performance Sailcraft, serving as the spiritual and technical "big brother" to the ubiquitous Laser dinghy. Launched in the mid-1980s and designed by the legendary Bruce Kirby, the Laser 28 was conceived as an affordable, high-performance one-design cruiser-racer that could be easily managed by a small crew. It was a pioneer in the Ultra Light Displacement Boat (ULDB) movement for production yachts, utilizing advanced construction techniques—such as a vacuum-bagged Divinycell foam core—that were typically reserved for custom racing machines of that era. This commitment to weight savings allowed the boat to achieve a displacement of only 3,950 pounds, a figure that remains impressive for a 28-foot vessel with a full interior.
