Devon they are really fun and comfortable prob not the best thing for racing though. I have never been on a Nacra with wings but my Hobie 18 has them and I usually leave them on for racing too. I have an F17 as my racing boat now and the Hobie as my pleasure boat and I sure do miss those wings when I'm on the Nacra. Be careful about some of the opinions you will get from some people on this forum this has been discussed many times and you will get a lot of negative comments about wings from people who have never sailed a boat with wings.

Not sure about Nacra wings but with Hobie wings you really have to be flying a hull high to have the lee wing drag in the water and slow you down... in other words if your lee wing is dragging you are sailing slow anyway regardless of the wings.
