Laser Pico

The Laser Pico dinghy is a small sailboat designed by Jo Richards in the mid-1990s[1] and used primarily for training and day sailing.

The Pico functions mainly as a training boat for younger children because of its very durable nature and has little to no racing events dedicated to it.

Ocean Play was founded in 2022 after Jo Richards (designer of the four boats[clarification needed]) approached RS to take up the production challenge.

[2][3] The first UK National championships were held on 27–29 May 2006 at Gurnard Sailing Club on the Isle of Wight, the Pico's spiritual home.

Gurnard also hosted the 2007 event, while in 2008 the Pico nationals were held at Thorpe Bay Yacht Club.
