	If you do a search, there has been quite a lot of discussion on the RS300 before.

	1001 actually, but very fast on a close reach in a medium breeze and of course very fast compared to most boats in the lighter stuff. Suspect a bit tricky in waves or lots of wind.

	I've only sailed one inland. Certainly much more fun than a Laser.

	whats everyones view on the 300, ive got a laser, but have got bored of it, looking for something a bit more exciting. what are they like on waves, my favourite bit about sailing the laser was downwind in big waves, is the 300 just as much fun??
