Is anyone considering a purchase?
My salary won't cover this one.........
Would like to know how much "buying" interest there is on the F20 Carbon?

I wonder where they got the idea to rubberize the decks...

its not really rubber if its like the infusion I saw with it. Its really like a powdercoat type material.

Its the same stuff that they use on the Wildcat, nice for sailing but a PITA if you have to do a repair.

I don't think it is. I inspected both a wildcat and an infusion (with the decks that look just like pictured above) and the materials are quite different. The Wildcat deck tops are more "rubbery" and the Infusion isn't.. its a harder, more tough type of material.

Are you sure?
IFAIK the Infusion decks are not normally covered with anything other then some nonskid sand-like coating.
I could be wrong though.

Aye - I took note of it when I saw it because, like you, I thought it was the same stuff as the WC.

You can kind of see it here. Different color. I asked them if they asked for it to be put on and they said no... that it just came like that.... so I'm GUESSING that its the same material as the grey **** on the F20. But, I've been wrong before.

The area of nonskid on the side of the hulls and between the beams can be colored. Mike & Tripp have this in black... it's just black gelcoat and non-skid. IMO it's a tiny bit more aggressive than the standard stuff but that probably is just their specific boat and nothing to do with color.
There are a few other Infusions out there with this too. Couldn't find a better pic.

Damn Tad just beat me.. but they did ask for it to be put on. They paid a bit extra for it.

oh ok... I was drunk at the time.

Sorry smile

One interesting thing I noted from the pics is that it doesn't appear to use the standard Nacra rudder castings that are on the infusion and the N20 unless my blindness is kicking in again.

hi from southern germany,
i have purchased a new f20 carbon in november 2009. thanks alot for these pic's. although currently the biggest bootshow in europe is running in germany, nacra was not able to present this new cat. When i purchased it they said it will have an aluminium rigg (same as infusion). befor christmas they decided to change to a carbon mast with aluminium beams.
I sailed the past decades a dart 20stampede. This will be my first (and hopefully my last) new boat. If you have any additional information or even pic#s from details i will love it. By the way my car is worth a small fraction of the price.
