To use the RS forum's you have to be a member of the association i think. I am sure that they will let you join the yahoo group which is what i have done for the 600, you can email any queries and i am sure you will get a flood of responses. If you go to the RS800 class page i think there will be a link to join the group somwhere.

Contact the back issues of y&y, think an extensive review and develope of the RS800 in the prototype stages was included in a few issues a few years back.

Hey, just out of interest: Is there a review for the RS800 anywhere on the web? I've looked extensively but can find nothing.

A few for the 4000, but nothing for the 800?

Also, is there an RS association/RS800 forum? I can't find any forum links from rs-association.com

I wonder if you have considered a Laser 2. as someone has said, they are good on  small areas of water and the 2 is still very much a planning boat once you have worked out how to work the kite. There is also a good fleet at Dachet.
