RS Sailing, just have fun... easily
For a long time, RS dinghy was created with passion. A passion combined in a high-tech design, to produce boats which offer a maximum of pleasure and performance at sea, for a minimum of constraints on the ground.
Traditionally constituted by lively and competitive dinghies, the range RS grew rich of accessible boats to everybody (beginners, families and sailing clubs), benefiting from all the know-how of high-tech skiffs.
"We hope that your RS will bring you so much pleasure as we had to design and build her."
