RS Sailing Revenue and Competitors

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF RS SAILING, THE INTERNATIONAL AWARD WINNING SAILBOATS RANGE From the outset, RS boats have been created with passion. With a heritage in flat out racing classes, the RS range also includes boats for beginners, families, clubs and schools. History The RS sailboat range was launched in the 1990s by two guys with a passion for sailing and the ambition to use the latest design developments and technology to produce boats that would move the game forward. Following immediate UK success the range has steadily expanded; it is now the fastest growing sailboat brand internationally. Company RS sailing is based close to the UK south coast near Southampton. Every member of our team is an active RS sailor. Over the last decade we have built our international distribution and well over 60% of RS boats are now sold outside of our home, UK market. There are RS dealers in around 40 countries and we're keen to broaden this network into new territories. Boats We think of the range in three groups: All Purpose Boats (APB), Performance Dinghies & Performance Keelboat. The same philosophy has remained from the outset – to make every RS boat the best of its type. We've never had a large marketing budget compared to our competitors – our aim has always been that the boats should be good enough to do the talking. Partners We are proud to work closely with the International Sailing Federation and we are partners of their Connect to Sailing program, setting out to build grass roots sailing worldwide. RS Sailing also works closely with many National Sailing Authorities and Global Sailing syndicates. Of course RS sailors around the world make the RS family and racing scene what it is today. The racing classes have active Class Associations that organise highly competitive one-design racing with a friendly atmosphere.
