Hi Estel The radial is of course a single person boat so it depends on what you want to do.  The Vision is big and heavy and I wouldn't recommend it for one person.  The radial is a great boat to learn in.  Plenty of excitement but does not have the full rig.  There is also the option of the 4.7 rig which is smaller still and better if learning so perhaps look at this option too.  We teach in the radial as well with good results.  Best advice is go to your local club and see what they sail and advise.  Where are you?

sailaboattv Thank you very much for the information! I was thinking to buy a laser Radial but I would like to take someone on the boat... so maby the RS Vision could work better! I’m asking if with the Vision could I sail alone... Do you know that? Congrats with your channel and thank you for the comment, that has help me!

Hi Estel.  For the videos we used a variety of boats.  Either RS Feva (the small one) or RS Vision.  These I think are mostly European boats as we are UK based., and we also used the Laser Bahia which is available internationally.  For the single handed ones we mostly used the Laser Radial and full rig.  For guidance on boats I suggest you go to a local sailing/yacht club and ask what is best for that particular location as this does vary depending on environment.  Hope that helps!
