The RS200 is one of the most popular two person sailboats of today, and it’s easy to see why. With easy, beautiful handling and adrenaline packed sailing for men and women, it is both exciting and a pleasure to sail. One of the most successful race classes of the modern era with big fleets and awesome events. Exciting performance & responsive handling compliment this highly competitive and sociable fleet, now spreading internationally. A wide range of sailor sizes and experience levels can enjoy the RS200. Low sheet loads on the jib and an easy one-line asymmetric system mean the RS200 responds to finesse rather than physique. Fully adjustable toe straps suit long and short legs. The rig encourages this size range too: modern developments in power control mean that there is a broader competitive weight range and improved handling in all conditions. Great for both men and women, young and old. The best sailing experience Anyone who has sailed an RS200 downwind in a blow will testify to the boat’s fantastic excitement and pace. Its asymmetric spinnaker is fun to use, tactical on the race course and very easy for the crew to handle. The spacious and deep cockpit make hiking comfortable whilst the thwart gives the crew a comfortable light wind position. Long lasting durability The RS200 hull is strong and has proven competitive over many years. The Mylar mainsail has full length battens which give shape stability and a long life. The Dacron jib is easy to read in light winds and durable. All the fittings used are of the highest available quality for more time racing and minimal maintenance.

The asymmetric spinnaker has low sheet loads and the single line launch system makes it easy to hoist and drop. The open transom allows the RS200 to largely self-drain after a capsize with any remaining water sucked out of the built-in self bailer. The pivoting centreboard and rudder make launching and recovery straightforward. in testing conditions.
