RS Zest is best, for family fun and beach getaways

June 6, 2019
Zest

Introducing an RS Zest into your family will give you the zest to plan that next family adventure. Maybe your adventure is already brewing and this great addition will bring that bit extra to your perfect summer getaway. At excellent value for money and with so many practical features, the RS Zest is a loveable addition to your summer kit for your trip to the coast.

Let me walk you through why this boat should be part of your family weekend away…

In stock with our dealers globally (or direct from RS Sailing HQ for our UK customers), the RS Zest is an affordable way to add so much value to a family weekend. Collect your boat on a Friday afternoon and hit the coast instantly with your car packed up with the weekend’s supplies and family eagerly anticipating their weekend on the water.

Easily transported on the roof of a car or in tow, the RS Zest can be transformed from roof rack to sailing-ready in no time, with an easy to rig 2-part mast, an easy furling mainsail and simple rudder design. This means more time for fun on the water.

Once out there making waves sailing around your new addition to the family, the RS Zest will not disappoint. Created with fun in mind, the RS Zest is ideal for both whole family outings and the kids taking on the waves with the optional Jib pack. Spacious and buoyant, the RS Zest is up to the test. Equally, the RS Zest is great for a blast around in the breeze by Mum or Dad. Adventuring along the coastline to the next beach or bay for lunch is easy, as the RS Zest can be pulled up the beach with no fuss with its pivoting centreboard. What makes it so durable is its roto-moulded design, which is up to the test of robust leisure use.

Back out on the water, the RS Zest promotes progressive and positive interactions between you and your children. This is because of the space and range of seating positions for the kids to feel comfortable and in control.

Now with car packed, family excited and boat in tow, your summer holiday can begin! Get your RS Zest in time for those summer family adventures by getting in touch with your local RS Stocklist.
