The RS21 rocks in the US!

March 27, 2019
RS21

The RS21 burst onto the scene of competitive racing in the United States last week at the San Diego National Offshore One Design (NOOD) Regatta. RS Sailing, shipped a fleet of 6 RS21’s over the Atlantic in just a single 40 foot container to be a part of this premier keelboat regatta series. The debutante keelboat proved to be an exciting boat for all involved, with one sailor commenting that sailing the RS21 was the, “most fun I’ve had getting my a** kicked!”

Check out the full press release here and regatta report on Sailing Scuttlebutt 

With the RS21 being so well received by our friends from across the pond, the fleet will next travel across to the East coast of the USA for Charleston race week, 11th -14th April 2019. With excitement around the RS21 booming in the US, Brits can have their chance to take an RS21 for a test sail by registering their details on the RS21 website.

And for those looking to race, the British Keelboat League is the perfect opportunity to #rockupandrace one of our impressive new keelboats.

Check out this round-up video from the Helly Hansen NOOD Regatta in San Diego!
