Can I get new sails from Intensity or Shurr ??

I just went to Intensity web site and didn't see "Chrysler"

size close to the Pirateer that has a sail that will fit ?

Torn Between Pirateer and Laser

I'm torn between Pirateer and Laser. I'm am not a racer but more of a cruiser. I like the Pirateer because I can take my small kids out, comfortably, which I can't really do on Laser. Here are the issues: Laser 1) I can get Laser parts anytime, new or used. 2) Laser is super easy/fast to set up &...
