I don't understand why they want to go 'half assed' when it comes to foiling. If they want to do it, why not just pick a full on foiling cat and do it right? Is the Nacra 17 that much cheaper than a Flying Phantom?
As if money were the deciding factor in any Olympic racing class...

Worth you while checking out the selection of 2016 equipment and what the choices were and how the evaluation process went (one of the criteria was cost)......the FP was supposed to be at the trials but wasn't ready....given we are now 18 months into the olympic 4 year cycle and still there is no 3 sail production catamaran suitable for a mixed team being delivered (the F20 C FCS would most definitely not be suitable for a mixed team of between 120kg and 140 kg!) I am not sure what your suggestion would be instead of the 17?
