I trailer sailed a Hobie 16 for a couple of years which is about the same
level of difficulty setting up as a small water ballast boat, maybe the
Hobie is a bit easier but not much diff.

With 2 big experienced guys we had it down to 20 minutes up or down -
fairly fast focussed work, no fooling around. If you are alone it will take
an hour at best.

I sailed a Sunfish. Two minutes each way. A Laser is pretty quick.

I used to hitchhike home with one when I didn't want to sail back to
weather. Some ditz in a VW bug stopped once. Ummm... no, I don't think
that's going to work.
