RS Sailing  
The top choice for clubs, schools & holiday companies
RS sailboats are becoming ever more popular with fleet operators. Our All Purpose range has been developed with training and school use of primary importance in every element of design. During the first years of use in clubs, schools and holiday companies we have sought feedback and continually refined the boats to suit these needs. From strength of construction, to simplicity and ease of use, these boats now set the standard and we win new fleet customers month after month, across the world.
We also absolutely understand that the boats themselves are only the first part of a successful relationship between RS and our fleet customers. We put great emphasis on giving excellent service – from first contact through supply of the boats and ongoing efficient parts supply. True value comes from maximum use.
