the 650
Built to fit within the international “RG-65” class rule for yachts 650mm long, the 650 is also suited as a strict one-design class.
Designed to be easily and accurately assembled the 650 has a plug together hull and deck with integral radio control screw top pot or moulded tray, "god pod" to keep electrics safe.
3 deck options are available and feature molded areas to locate standard, micro or winch servos depending on version chosen, allowing you to distribute weight for optimal chosen performance.
Deck and hull sandwich the combination mast and keel box for accurate alignment ensuring 650s are all the same for
”one-design” racing.
