Deriva dobla : skiff (spinnaker asimmetrico, doppio trapezio)
RS 900
LDC Racing Sailboats
- 5m 
16' 5"ft
“We believe that a new generation of elite skiff sailors deserve a purpose designed boat that will excel in the role and stand the test of time” says RS managing director, Martin Wadhams. ”After several changes to women’s classes over recent Olympic cycles, the last thing anyone wants is another short term measure. We began the process several years ago believing that the RS800 could be modified to become the women’s skiff, but quickly realised that although it was arguably the most suited of the then current bunch, it would never be perfect for Olympic women. So our own RS team of Alex Southon and Nick Peters has worked with Phil Morrison to start from scratch and design the RS900 without compromise.”
Hull & Wings
Fully integrated wide, solid wings and a smooth run-through deck facilitate athletic sailing
RS900 sailors will use techniques matched to those of the 49er men - allowing shared training in many regions - especially helpful for smaller sailing nations
The wings fit smoothly into the hull
Arguably the most flowing platform of any skiff, plus structural integrity and seriously good looks
The RS900 hull is shorter, narrower and has lower freeboard – smaller all round than the RS800 - to suit light female teams
Reduced surface area allows a corresponding weight reduction
