The RS900 is a 2.8m, double handed, dual trapeze, racing skiff. Designed in 2012 by Phil Morrison and manufactured by RS Sailing. It has a lightweight polyester GRP with carbon reinforcement hull construction.[2]
It was RS Sailings contender for the Women's Olympic Skiff.[3] After the ISAF’s evaluation trials, the Olympic committee chose the 49er FX over the RS900.[4]
It was designed to be sailed by a crew weighing between 110 and 130 kg.[5]
