The knot videos are listed here.
Low cost can combine with good performance. All the ropes except the mainsheet should be spectra or dyneema to limit stretch.

A general video for the Oz Goose - 10 Oz Geese cost about the same as a single new Laser. That is 10 to 20 beginner, intermediate and even advanced sailors on the water for the price of 1. We we do group builds in about 2 weeks total elapsed time
