The RS 21 is a definitive departure from the traditional "arms race" often found in sportsboat racing, focusing instead on parity, sustainability, and the burgeoning popularity of club-based fleet sailing. Launched in 2018 by RS Sailing, this 6.34-meter keelboat was engineered to provide a balanced platform that rewards tactical prowess over financial investment. Built using eco-friendly materials, including bio-derived resins and recycled core materials, the RS 21 was awarded the Sail Magazine Best Boats Award for its innovative approach to modern keelboat design. Its primary mission is to serve as a robust, high-performance vessel for sailing leagues, training centers, and private owners who prioritize ease of use and close-quarters competition.
