Long Beach, California | If Todd bought it, you can bet it wasn't a cash deal... and probably not goods-in-kind, either. That leaves "services rendered."

Roanoke Island ,N.C. | There are about ten of them sailing at this regatta I'm at (North Sea Regatta).
It really is a very good looking boat and is fast too in the right hands.
The Viper with Bundy was crazy fast as well, there wasnt too much wind but they where faster then quite a few F 18 s (elapsed). Ten, Huh? According to this post on SA #4 just hit the water. No 4 is on water; damn fast that lady !!
we got her two days ago and sailed for about 10h since from 5 to 20 knots. Our first impression: never ever pull the gennacker below 200kg. she really flies and sometimes jumps above the crest. We feared about pitchpoling after we pased 28knots, she sings like a mairmaid. but she's forgiving and gracefull. The carbonspar opens in gusts by itself. she's extremly manouverable and as Macca already experienced she loves sidesteps. The hull moves faster sideways as your feet can follow.
thank you Nacra for that big boys toy !!

Roanoke Island ,N.C. | So I wonder how many have been pumped out of the factory total,then?
You'd think there would be loads of info about how many have been made, how they did at that regatta, etc.
It amazes me the media blackout that is Nacra here in the states. If you do get info from the factory,the odds are 50/50 as to whether it's true or not .
The only info I have gotten that wasn't hearsay has come from Mark at CatHouse.

Ten, Huh?
According to this post on SA #4 just hit the water.
According to the race results six of them are sailing here, and I saw at least two more sitting at the Nacra office. Maybe he was talking about hull numbers? From what I heard about 30 boats are sold already, so maybe if will turn into a proper class. | | | Re: Nacra F20

I'd just like to see a little more promotion in the US. Jack told me,a good while back, that the boat was not going to be on the US market. It appears that it is.

Roanoke Island ,N.C. | Todd: I get plenty of information through my local dealer.
S.O.P. Bragging about crap without saying what it is. Look at me,Look at me. Bad Form. Either offer up some info or keep your fingers in your shorts and off the keyboard.
