Rooster now stock an ever expanding range of replica parts for the Laser®, but what are replica parts and when should they be used?
If I can use the motor trade as an analogy, car owners have long been able to obtain vehicle spare parts from either their local authorised dealer or go to a local shop such as Halfords and obtain branded replacements. This not only gives the consumer a choice of parts but also helps to control the price (a manufacturer monopoly is rarely good for the consumer!) - it works well in the motor trade and is now available on marine products from rooster!
Wherever you see this replica stamp, you know that you are buying high quality replacement parts manufactured for Rooster that perform the same function as the original manufacturer supplied parts, in fact, sometimes you'll have trouble telling them apart! The strict one design rules of the the Laser Class Association only permit official manufacturer parts to be used at Association events, however, replica parts are perfect for social sailing, sailing schools, club sailing or training. Generally, there is a significant cost saving when purchasing replica parts - why pay more?
This stamp lets you know that you are buying official manufacturer parts. The Laser® is a strict one design class and these parts should be used if you intend to sail at an association event but generally speaking are more expensive to buy.
