| Does anyone know if there is any high performance dinghy sailing around Busan? I was thinking 29er/49er, but cats and other stuff too, I'm curious about whatever is there. |

There are plenty of lasers and laser picos. Most of the lasers are individually owned and there are a few laser clubs. Also a few college / regional teams and the national team sailing lasers. The national team members are usually sailing 420's, 470's, and hobie cats. There are two NACRA cats here, one is in use and the other was up for sail last time I saw it.
I think I might have seen a 29er here once, but it wasn't in Busan. Are you currently in Busan? Have you sailed high performance dinghies in the past?
I think part of what limits the models you see here is that dinghies aren't built here and whatever's imported has a huge markup. If you have a ton of money bring a 29er or 49er over. |
