what's the difference? I thought it was pretty much in name only but wanted to check.

it's the same boat only the name was changed. the reason was explained on this forum a while ago and i'm too lazy to look it up.

this is related to the F20 rule not the name. the mains on US boats have always been the larger cut (not F20 compliant) regardless of the name I20 = N20 in the US.

Ding's spot on. Nothing but a name and sail logo changed,unless I missed something.

For a time there were two different i20's;
The US one which is the same as the n20
The european one which was optimised for iF20 rules

When the other manufacturers ceased to support iF20, nacra changed the European version to match the US one and changed the name.


The European one was always faster [Nothing to do with the boat!!!!!!!!}
