Details :-      The RS200, designed in 1995 by Phil Morrison and has been the most popular of all the RS (Racing Sailboat) classes with turnouts at national championships exceeding 130 boats.  is a two person 4m  long modern racing dinghy. It features an uncomplicated asymmetric spinnaker and low sheet loads on the sail controls. It can be sailed by almost anyone, and all up weights of between 16 and 26 Stone can be competitive. This makes it particularly popular for parents to sail with children, or for two adults. They are not a beginners boat however.

An open transom allows the RS200 to virtually self drain after a capsize and a moulded self bailer quickly removes any remaining water. It features an asymmetric spinnaker with single line hoist and system which is very easy to use.

Anticipated 60 – 70 boats
