Product Details

The RS Zest is a compact yet spacious dinghy designed to deliver the stability and confidence of a much larger boat. Built with modern rotomolded construction and practical user-focused features, it is ideal for sailing schools, camps, club programs, and families.

Easy to sail single-handed yet roomy enough for 2–3 crew members, the RS Zest combines durability with performance. The chined hull enhances stability while maintaining responsive handling, and the self-draining cockpit ensures low-maintenance operation. Designed with safety and simplicity in mind, the Zest rigs quickly and is ready to sail within minutes, making it perfect for beginner training and recreational sailing alike.

Constructed using RS Comptec PE3 technology, the hull features a tough outer skin, foam core for stiffness, and reinforced high-load areas. With built-in buoyancy and virtually maintenance-free materials, the RS Zest is built for years of dependable use on the water.
