The RM 890 represents a radical departure from the standard 30foot production cruiser, embodying the "fast cruiser" ethos that has defined the La Rochelle shipyard since its inception. Designed by the late Marc Lombard, the 890 replaced the RM 880 and quickly became a benchmark for sailors seeking offshore capability in a compact, trailermanageable (via professional transport) package. Its construction is its most defining trait: a hull built of epoxyimpregnated marine plywood panels joined over a mahogany framework, paired with a vacuuminfused GRP deck. This method results in a hull that is significantly stiffer and lighter than traditional solid fiberglass, offering a structural rigidity that sailors often compare to highend racing yachts.
