Performance and design
The RS200 utilises a single line asymmetric spinnaker system and low sheet loads on the sail controls. It can be sailed by weights of between 16 and 26 stone. The open transom allows the RS200 to virtually self drain after a capsize and a moulded self bailer removes any remaining water.
gollark: Probably not some kind of weird 3-axis spinning chair.
gollark: I remember there being a solution for this, but I forgot what it is.
gollark: It's probably just me, in your walls.
gollark: Enjoy your vision!
gollark: I see.
