Just to show some progress of our 1st 16 delivered with racing rig, new rudders and castings, selft tack, spreaders etc

Launched last weekend but I sailed her yesterday.
Quite lively and responsive sailing comparing with the F18.
Is like going from Tornado to F18 feeling.

Not fully F16 as we put an 8mt mast and no dagger, but the concept has catched up, and sales of the 16 already equals F18 and we project to double them this season, for sure we will have a 16 class too along the F18.

But I'm reluctant to call her an F16, just 50cm short on mast... jje


Cheers,
Martin

P.S: Main sheet is not correctly set, but I want to show the pics anyway.
