NACRA 17

For the other submission we designed a complete new boat which is called simply the NACRA 17! 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. The loads are adjusted on the NACRA 17 for a MIXED crew and we need your help to get this chosen. Here are some of the bullet points you can use in your promotion: The NACRA 17 is actually 17.6 foot long. Resulting in a more versatile platform that can carry the crew loads even better. This combined with the curved dagger boards makes it the Olympic multihull towards the future where the Elite sailing athletes of the world can run their campaigns with.
