From 2005 thru 2007 this yacht took a two-year rebuild project, one of the most challenging refits to be undertaken anywhere in recent years by the team of RSD (Rainsford Saunders Design) lead by Rupert Rainsford Mann. Thus, Rainsford-Saunders or R/S Eden was finally revealed to the world in the summer of 2007. As of June 2009 RSD has changed its name to RMD Marine (Rainsford Mann Design). R/S as you can clearly see, means Rainsford-Saunders, the old company acronym which the yacht still bears.

“A real delight of timeless leisurely yachting” - that was the description used by the owner of R/S Eden, the classic 1930s cruising yacht which has just taken to the water again after a comprehensive two-year refit. The next two years being completely rebuilt at Neta Marine in Bodrum, Turkey.
Summer 2007 finally saw the owner’s foresight rewarded as the renewed yacht, now renamed R/S Eden, left her shed as a handsome motor vessel of 49.5 metres overall, recreating the elegance of her 1930s heritage but with the full array of modern amenities and equipment discreetly incorporated into her overall structure.
Since her launch R/S Eden has already attracted the attention of designers and yacht-lovers alike.
