The RS900 - 'our' fantasy dinghy!

   Looks like a b**tardised 800 that has mated with a 49er. With shoddy RS build quality. Not sure i'd want to be stuck with one. Give it to ovi to build properly.

	I've heard (if I recall correctly) it's a carbon 800 hull, with fat head main and mast head kite. Also has moulded wings instead of racks, with a target crew weight of around 130kg. No photos from me either I'm afraid...
