RS Sailing are delighted to be at Southampton Boat Show, 19th - 28th September 2025 for 10 epic days packed with something for everyone. Here's what to expect:
RS Boats on the Stand: W060
RS have ten boats from across their Race, Adventure, and Beach ranges for you to explore. It's the perfect chance to get up close (and even climb aboard in some cases!), speak with the RS experts, and find the RS boat that suits you best.
In the Race Range, the RS Tera is a fun, confidence-building single-hander for kids, with a World Sailing-recognised class association. Kids can then progress into the RS Feva - the fastest-growing junior double-handed class in the world, loved by clubs and youth sailors alike.
One of the stars of the RS stand is the RS Aero, the lightest single-hander at on only 33kg! An Olympic Equipment Trials winner, this boat also comes with a thriving national and international racing scene. The RS200, a hugely popular one-design class, offers competitive racing for all abilities, while the RS21 showcases modern keelboat racing the RS way.
In the Beach Range, RS is showcasing their new RS CAT12 - a zippy, beginner-friendly catamaran - alongside the learn-to-sail RS Zest, and the 7-crew, award-winning RS Toura.
The RS Quest, RS's best selling training dinghy worldwide, is another favourite. The team are celebrating the RS Quest's ten year anniversary at the show this year, so keep your eyes peeled for some birthday celebrations on the stand. And last, but not least, the RS Aira 22 is making its UK show debut! The RS Aira 22 is the latest keelboat from RS that combines comfort and performance for family-friendly daysailing.
RS Around the Show
You might also spot some RS boats elsewhere around the show. The full line-up of RS catamarans are welcoming visitors by the show entrance. The RS CAT12, RS CAT14, and RS CAT16 are on display, showcasing the fun, fast, and modern side of multihull sailing.
There's also an RS Quest and an RS Toura in the marina - rigged and ready to sail with Rockley Watersports. Visitors can get out on the water and demo with the Try-a-Boat team at the show.
