The finish on the boat is amazing. When we put it on the scales it came in at 104.5kg. Not bad for a stock standard F16 with aluminium spars!



Well done, Australian formula catamarans !

I'm impressed.

With a jib kit this boat will be underweight with respect to the 2-up 107 kg limit. Really, well done with a standard all aluminium setup.

I personally really like that Aussie Blade. I like the hulls (higher freeboard and fuller bows), I like the very clean finish inside the hulls, and I like the weights.

If I had to money to forfill my wish list ; I would buy this Aussue Blade and put daggerboards and rudders of www.catamaranparts.nl on it with a Glaser suit of upwind sails and a landenberger spi; possibly a carbon mast to (with landy sails). That boat would be quite something and real winner in handicap races.
