Exceptionally strong, simple and fast assembly The RS CAT16 is the newest addition to the RS Range & our first catamaran. Easy to handle & highly durable - perfect for sailing schools, beach clubs & families. Sparkling performance with easy handling Designed by innovative multihull expert Jo Richards and our in-house development team, the RS Cat16 combines buoyant hulls and practical features that make life easy for novices, while experienced sailors will love the sparkling performance sailing alone or with friends. Blast acrross the bay - picnic on the beach: The RS CAT16 opens the exciting world of sailing to you. aorem zzril ulput More fun through better design With significant technical developments in key structural aspects of the boat, the RS CAT16 not only looks modern it also incorporates important practical benefits. The hulls and beams are secured without holes through the skin of the boat, so the boat can be assembled or taken apart in close to 15 minutes without need for sealant. For more details: www.RSsailing.com Bots fixing the beams and shrouds secure the stainless steel bars located in channels on either side of the hulls, all that is required is one spanner. So the RS CAT16 can be stored in restricted spaces and can even be transported on the roof of a large family car presenting more possibilities for the sailing family. Long lasting value Build quality is second to none because the RS CAT16 is constructed using the RS Comptec PE3 - three layer rotomoulded polyethlene system. Exceptional durability - minimal maintenance required. Safety features include toe straps above and below the trampoline to assit capsize recovery, with a bag underneath for a knife and righting line. Recesses in the aft decks reduce volume and make it easier to ‘sink’ a stern and right the boat from inversion. I think Jo Richards and our development team have done a fantasic job with the RS CAT16. It not only looks great but also brings valuable technical steps forward to make the boat practical strong and exciting. Responses so far have been all that we could have hoped for. Martin Wadhams -MD RS Sailing I am very happy with the construction developments and the user friendly characteristics that we have been able to combine with really exciting performance and contemporary looks. Jo Richards - RS CAT16 Designer
