Ein grosser Vorteil des RS600ff ist, dass das Boot ’normal’ gesegelt werden kann. D.h. es braucht nicht unbedingt Foiling-Wind. Foilen ist wie ‘ein Gang mehr’:
- Gang (Beaufort 1-2): Normales Segeln
- Gang (Beaufort 2): Segeln im Trapez
- Gang (ab Beaufort 2-3): Foilen

- Super-Speed
“Current top speed of 23.4 knots set by Sam Pascoe in Feb 2007. Sam’s speed record in the Moth is 26 knots, but he says: “I think the RS600FF will be faster….”
- Striktes Einheitsboot
“Strict one-design. The RS600FF abides by the existing rules of the RS600 class – with the obvious exception of the hydrofoil package. When the racing circuit gets underway, sailors will not be allowed to customise their boats. The RS600FF is all about cost-effective foiling.”
- Einfach einzuwassern
“Ease of launching. Liftable foils make this the most user-friendly ‘foiler’ on the market.”
- Schnelles Umbauen vom RS600 zum RS600ff
“Quick conversion. In just a few hours you can convert your RS600 so it’s ready for foiling. Want to switch back to the RS600 for some conventional sailing? No problem, the foiling package has been designed as a ‘bolt-on, bolt-off’ package which means you still have your standard RS600 any time you want it.”
