RL 24

The RL 24 is a popular, 24 ft long Australian trailer sailer. The RL 24 was designed by Rob Legg. 628 boats were built in Australia, mostly by Rob Legg Yachts Pty Ltd from 1972 to 1988, with 12 being built in Western Australia. An additional 500 boats were also built under licence in Minnesota.

The RL 24 was designed to offer good performance with ease of launching and rigging for a sailing family. It sleeps 4 and has an internal toilet. The design also featured a motor well on the stern.

The RL 24 was built in four versions.
 * MkI with 100 produced
 * MkII built from 1976 with upgraded hull finish and heavier centre board.
 * MkIII built from 1980 with increased cabin height and interior alterations.
 * MkIV an improved racing version.
