RS CAT14: A joy to sail with fine balance and performance © Phil Jackson

Last but not least in the RS Sailing Advent Calendar, we bring the RS CAT14, recently arrived in New Zealand and ready to get noticed!

This boat takes the enjoyment and handling associated with beach cats to a new level.

Stiffness and balance defy the cost-effective durability of the RS CAT14’s construction – making the boat perfect, not only for training and recreational sailing, but also as a true performance pathway class.

We’re excited – and we think you will be too!

The design protected system for joining the beams to RS CAT hulls gives increased stiffness compared to other rotomoulded catamarans, with the added bonus of allowing the boat to be disassembled quickly for storage or transport.

Durability : Convenience : Excitement – the hallmarks of the RS CATs.

Watch and be inspired! Then visit www.nzsailcraft.co.nz to get info and make one yours!
