RS Vision - ALL PURPOSE BOATS
These boats were designed to set new standards for
recreational sailors, families, clubs, schools and holiday companies. The boats are easy to handle, fun to sail, versatile
and highly durable.
Since launching this range, RS has been catapulted into another sailing world - spreading around
the globe, gaining many new sailors, club and corporate customers weekly.
In fact, the RS Feva was the outright
world's best selling two person sailboat in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the RS Vision was the world's best seller in its sector.
All the RS APB range continues to win accolades accross the world.

"My decision to buy the RS Vision is my best yet, it has exceeded my expectations and it comes with the bonus of a truly great back-up team"
Martin Speller
"The boat was great, I used it almost every day, sailing, with out board, even caught mackerel in it. I sailed to Falmouth one day on my own. I can thoroughly recommend it. I am struggling to re focus on work"
Nick Gill after a family holiday in Cornwall
"The average size family who are looking for indestructible fun in a lightweight dinghy which can be raced and cruised should look no further than the RS Vision"
Dinghy Sailing magazine
"More than 25 instructors and 6 coach assessors got the chance to sail in it (Vision). General comments were all very positive. I intend to buy 6 Fevas and either 4 or possibly 6 Visions"
Nick Wymer - Plas Menai - The National Watersports Centre
"First of all the boat is a sheer delight to sail but what has struck me most about the Vision is the quality of build"
Martin Speller
"The boat is very good at what it was designed for and will serve us well over the next few years"

On lochs and lakes, in harbours and estuaries, there is absolutely nothing quite like messing around in boats. And there is a real RS boat to do it in. A boat that is tough and virtually maintenance free. A boat that is roomy, stable and great to sail. A boat that looks a million dollars, but won't cost the earth.
The RS Vision - the best selling boat in its sector in recent years.

“After 2 seasons of hard racing and regular cruising the Vison has lived up to the 'maintenance free' claim with only cordage to replace. The sailing performance has been excellent and she has proved to be easy to rig, easy to reef and remarkably comfortable to sail. All this with the bonus of excellent back up from the RS team.”
Dave and Matt Hogben - Vision "Twenty/Twenty"

- Multi purpose spinnaker chute / foredeck moulding for added hull stiffness, mast support, water shedding and easy-launch spinnaker system
- Topside hull step to provide stiffness and strength, as opposed to flat panels that require heavy material thickness
- Ribbed cockpit floor for additional stiffness and grip
- Hull rubbing strakes for panel stiffness, wear resistance and grip when capsized
"All weather" capability

- Furling jib
Plenty of stowage

Simply the best value
- Class leading design and specification
- Remarkable price
Most durable
- Our Comptec PE3 construction system uses computerised "in-mould" temperature and cooling control to take rotomoulded polyethylene hull construction to a new level.
- State of the art process control ensures maximum strength to weight ratio.
- Based on the well established three layer system:
- Tough outer skin
- Middle foam layer for stiffness
- Inner skin to stabilise the structure
- Strongest attachment for the fittings, provided by brass inserts moulded into the hull structure.
- Encapsulated buoyancy in the foam layer makes Comptec PE3 boats unsinkable.
Lowest maintenance
- Comptec PE3 boats are virtually maintenance free.
- Can be stored outdoors.
- No water absorption.
- No fragile gel coat.
- No peeling paint.
