Putting the RS Toura through its paces



My instructors are putting the RS Toura through its paces. My RYA instructors are putting the RS Toura through its paces to show that it can be a pretty fast boat, and it is the sailor who makes the difference. The Club has Zests and Fevas, and I own an RS Toura. The Toura seems to be a favourite with anyone who takes it out. It is a very forgiving dinghy, and because it reacts quite slowly, there is time to take action before capsizing, which is what makes it an excellent training boat.
