The RL24 is a remarkable and popular trailer sailer designed in Queensland by Rob Legg. A number of RL24 have also been built in Western Australia. They were also built under license in Minnesota, USA.
The craft comfortably sleeps four people, its interiors are open and clear making it highly comfortable.
The design and various safety features of the RL24 lead it to win the Good Design Award.
