I'm not familiar with the Topaz. Is it like a Topper? If it is,
there's no comparrison with a Laser.

The Topaz is made by Topper. It is supposed to be easier to sail than a
Laser. However, I found the Topaz to be extremely uncomfortable. You
spend most of your time on your knees, which gets very painful after a
short time. On the Laser you can sit on the side. The Laser also goes much
faster!!!!!





So, where did you stay? More importantly, where can you rent Lasers &
windsurfers in Turkey?

The boats were included in the price of the holiday. There were no queues
for Taz's, Topaz's, Lasers, or RS800's. There were (short) queues for Hobie
15's and Sport 16's.

The holiday was provided by Sunsail. There are two other companies doing
similiar holidays in Europe - Mark Warner and Neilson.
