Hi Issy, Those were prototypes and are owned by RS Sailing.
Further to the limited testing and feedback last year the final size may be tweaked which will enable the 'blank canvas' RS Aero 6 to match a target weight perfectly, should it come into production.

The training day before the 2019 Lago Maggiore RS Aero International Regatta enabled several sailors to try out the prototype RS Aero 6 rig including Cristina Corsi from NauticaLuino, our local sponsor.

Hi, I looked at the development of the 6 rig before I bought my Aero in September. I saw your post/video about them the other day and it suggested that they might be of use to club sailors. I assume there were a number of them made for trials so are they available as a second hand rig to buy for club sailing. I am way too small for a 7 so another option for very light wind days just at club level would be good for me. Is this an option and if so how could I get hold of one just to play with on light days at my local club.

Is a 6m. sail still under development? At 73 years of age and weighing 152 lbs. I feel it would be a sweet spot for me in the conditions we have in South Florida.
