Sometimes the design is better in certain conditions, but basically the speed for all new F18 boats is approx. the same.

The easyness of handling that's what makes the difference.
This way you have more time for the tactical part of the game.

Certainly very similar to the capricorn, looks like it has more agressive bows. not a boat your would like to be hit by!

Lat summer in one of the major evenst in the saison. A capricorn hit mid bow a Nacra Infusion just in fron of me.
The Cap ended half way up the trampoline and lost a big part of the nose.

The Infusion was hit near the dagger board. Ending up with minor (easily reparable) damage.

So you never know.

What worse than Infusion?
What about Seacart then?

This could be a whole new thread
