What is the minimum class crew weight for the Nacra F-18? I know what the NAF 18 rules are, but when racing non-NAF 18 in a portsmouth fleet (i.e. the Alter Cup Qualifier) what is the minimum weight to use the 63.5 DPN rating? When you go to Performance Cats website and click on Nacra Class rules, there aren't any rules written for the Nacra F-18. The Hobie Class rules have the Tiger min. weight at 308.

308

It's a formula boat, so you have to use the formula weight to be at that portsmouth number.

I got the oportunity to sail one this past weekend. It sails really nice. (There were a couple of set up issues that I would have fixed if it was my personal boat) It is very responsive, ballanced and fast. It is also heavy to meet the formula rules. For the weight of the boat you might as well have an I20, 2 more feet of bow in a blow downwind would be nice.
