The NACRA F16 was submitted  for obvious reasons which fits the ISAF criteria perfectly. The only modification made is a TWO PIECE carbon mast which makes it quite expensive

but we are following the ISAF criteria.

·         Wave piercing hulls = Less drag through water

·         Super stiff platform = speed

·         Light weight = easy to handle

·         Robust = durable

·         Modern rig = designed with latest flow technology

·         Full compliancy with ISAF criteria

The Nacra F16 results in a best in class F16 that is exciting, challenging racing catamaran.

For the other submission was a complete new boat which is called simply the NACRA 17! (not the F17) This boat fits within these criteria so good that we truly hope this will gets chosen. Of course we are okay with the F16 to get chosen but as CATAMARAN lovers we would like the NACRA 17 shine at the Olympics with its curved dagger boards! The Nacra 17 truly is showing what Multihull sailing 2.0 is all about, just like the F20 Carbon.

·         Wave piercing hulls = Less drag through water

·         Super stiff platform = speed

·         Light weight = easy to handle

·         Robust = durable

·         Modern rig = designed with latest flow technology

·         Full compliancy with ISAF criteria

·         No interference with any other class sailing out there today

·         Specificly designed for Elite athletes of the world and Olympic purpose

·         Curved boards lift the lee bow out of the water reducing drag significantly

·         Sheet loads are reduced = does not matter if male or female is skipper or crew

·         Better control in windy conditions

The Nacra 17 results into a agile high speed machine giving both sailors and spectators a spectacular close racing fleet.
