RS Venture

We have an leftover 2021 RS Venture  SE.   A big savings and comes rigged with the  Assymetric Spinnaker package a saving of $1400.

We have trailers and covers available as well as motor mounts to put a small electric on it to get out of a lagoon.

The new benchmark in family, exploration and training dinghies, the RS Venture can carry up to eight sailors in its huge, self-draining cockpit. Sparkling performance makes it great fun and multiple equipment options allow to boat to be configured for you. Winner of multiple awards, the RS Venture has a choice of standard or SE ballasted centerboards – there’s even a lifting keel version too (see RS Venture Connect). Exceptional stability makes the RS Venture ideal on estuaries and coastal waters – with stowage for all the equipment you’ll need, including an outboard motor. Imagine the adventures in store
