RS 700, a demanding single-handed dinghy
This beautiful skiff designed by RS Sailing and still in production today is a demanding boat. Technically as well as physically, 13m2 of mainsail and 13 m2 of spinnaker will have to be handled with a trapeze at the end of the ladders. This means that as soon as the wind picks up, you need both kilos at the end of the cable and technique.
However, it is a boat whose cokpit design allows for seated transitions (which its closest competitor, the Musto Skiff, does not).
RS700 second hand market
This boat has been produced in about 400 units and the fleet is still evolving. Fairly light (80kg) and therefore rather fragile, it requires careful handling and regular maintenance. The oldest boats can be found for around 2000€, more modern or better equipped second hand boats will exceed 5000€.
The market is developed in England and the Czech Republic.
The competitor of the RS700 is the MPS.
