go for a N12, RS200's are just conforming to the trend. Everyone has them, they're boring and look like a camels arse. But if you go for one then just make sure it's not a broken one!

All,

In my eyes being the owner of a mad looking nat 12, and having sailed an rs200, for any inland water there is no comparison. The nat 12 is by far better as raised above on handicap and you will be overtaking the 200's after about 2 minutes even though their handicap is quicker.

If you want a challenging boat then get a nat 12 due to all those hundreds of adjustable bits and bobs! But if you want a toy, but a 200.

The 200 is great boat but not as challenging/exciting as a nat 12.

Your choice.

Good to see you are giving here back the her original name - rather than
