RS Sailing – A comprehensive guide to our boats and what they offer for camps and programs

December 10, 2021
RS Venture

 

Known as the world’s leading small boat brand it’s no surprise that RS Sailing has become extremely popular with summer camps and sailing programs across the country. RS offers an extensive range, with boats suited for any program. We have put together a comprehensive guide to our boats and what they offer for camps and programs.

RS Zest – Most popular camp boat; space for two sailors, yet small enough for convenient single-handing. Instructors will love the practical design solutions engineered by our team, especially the hull construction that makes the RS Zest almost maintenance free.

RS Quest – Adventure with the whole group; enough room for up to 5 sailors plus an instructor. Created with stability in mind, the Quest makes adventuring fun and easy while limiting the amount of upkeep required.

RS Tera – Modern Forgiving Design; learn to sail and intro to racing. It’s packed with features that make sailing safe and easy. It comes up dry from a capsize. It’s quick and simple to rig by youngsters. It’s tough.

RS Neo – High performance solo sailor; durable hull, ability to take two sailors. A step-up in speed without the demands of more radical designs, the Neo is perfect for camps that are looking for a boat that offers the perfect balance of stability and thrill.

RS Feva – Two sailors advancing skills; intro to racing. Modern styling and practical features make it irresistible. The Feva is ideal for camps looking to introduce students to more technical racing without the hassle of other racing dinghies.

RS CAT – High performance sailing intro; up to 5 sailors. Stiffness and balance defy the cost-effective durability of the RS CAT’s construction – making the boat perfect for camp and recreational sailing. With two different sizes, the RS CATs can fit the needs of any program.

RS Venture – Up to 8 sailors; more capacity for adventures. Sparkling performance makes it great fun and multiple equipment options allow to boat to be configured for you.

RS Venture Connect – Adaptive sailing option. The RS Venture Connect SCS brings a new level of designed-in, engineered adaptability with simple, plug and play options including sip/puff electronic control to configure the boat for most disabilities – and change it between sessions to suit different requirements.

Watch below to see all of our boats in action. Want to learn more about which RS boat is best suited for your camp/program? We will be attending the American Camp Association National Conference February 8-11. Register here!
