I want to throw this out to the group: What do you think of the latest wave piercing hull designs: A2, Nacra, Capricorn.. I am guessing that the thoery is that the rig will pitch less with narrower bows because the bows will just go through the wave. But with the new nacra, it looks like they have just moved the volume back a few feet. Won't this just cause the boat to ride up over the wave and pitch anyway? I have been sailing a Nacra 6.0 which I think has a fantastic hull design.. The narrow hulls cause the boat to punch through waves, not ride over top, which to me is wave piercing. The hulls are about 12" wide at the front beam.
