Jeff,
On pics the fat head in the main looks bigger than what you have on the Falcon/Viper. Correct? You saw it in real.

The main is very square up high, looks very much like the main on an F20c. Honestly, I'm not sure if it is "fatter" than the Viper. The sails being used this week will definitely be refined, we aren't seeing the final package by any means.

I have to say this is yet more validation of the F16! I think we're here to stay guys, of course I felt that way from the moment I saw the Taipan 4.9.

Kudos to all you folks that had the vision!

I just have to chuckle a bit ..... Nacra F16s at Quietwater Beach.

I guess the fad isn't over ...

The F16 was previously dismissed by some as a fad boat and would soon disappear but that was a couple of years ago.

Btw, I think the NACRA F16 is a great looking boat and that the NACRA dealer in Pensacola Beach is fantastic. The dealer support in PB has provided the platform for a great catamaran racing scene over many, many years. The racing scene there would not be what it is without Key Sailing and the many people involved over the years. Kudos to them.

I am glad to see NACRA in the F16 class. I wasn't so sure that would happen 5 or 6 years ago.

I was thinking about getting a beater Stiletto 27 and gunkholing around the NC sounds a little bit. I have access to a cabin on Albermarle Sound with a place to store it - about an hour from my house.

I'd love to have a F16 again and will at some point, just not sure when - maybe when my kids age out of "traditional" sports. They have been using traditional sports to meet new friends in NC.
