The RS Vision is a sailing dinghy created by RS Sailing designed for 2 crew members. It can, however, be sailed by a larger crew or be single handed. It is sailed at many clubs around the world.[2]

Performance and design

The RS Vision is roomy and stable. An owners club and events circuit is established.[3] The RS Vision is a good boat for training, being stable and with plenty of room for two trainees and an instructor. The boat is fitted with the Gnav kicker system leaving the cockpit uncluttered.[4]
