RS200 (dinghy)

The RS200 is a 4m, double handed, hiking, racing dinghy. Designed in 1995 by Phil Morrison and manufactured by RS Sailing, it has a lightweight polyester GRP with Coremat hull construction.

Performance and design

The RS200 utilises a single line asymmetrical spinnaker system and low sheet loads on the sail controls. It can be sailed successfully by pairs of sailors with combined weights of between and . Both sailors hike; there are no trapezes or wings. The open transom assists drainage after a capsize and a moulded self bailer can be opened to remove any remaining water.
