The nacra I-17 or Nacra F17 class rules can be found here :

Is the carbon mast abandonned all together ?

It is interesting that the class rules now only mention extrusions. Will the carbon mast even be outlawed ?

I also find this bit interesting :

3.5 DAGGERBOARDS. The top of the daggerboard may not be inserted below
the hand well. The shape and length may not be changed. No part of the
daggerboard or daggerboard well may be removed or added for the purpose of
varying rake. All daggerboards manufactured by NACRA are legal for racing
except ones that require modification of daggerboard or daggerboard well
to accommodate them. I-17 daggerboards may be modified in length and
profile as per template provided by P. C., Inc.



To clearify what I mean I remove to unrelated parts.

... The shape and length may not be changed. ... I-17 daggerboards may be modified in length and
profile as per template provided by P. C., Inc.


So may the daggerboards by changed or not ?

If any Nacra F17 class official is reading this then this rule may benefit from some clearification.

Wouter,

Inter 17's (the old, non F17's) had longer plates.

The new F17's have shorter plates; the class rules allow the older boats to change the profile of their plates to the newer boats. Bit of retorfitting that's all.

F16 - GBR 553 - SOLD
