Duc d’Albe 2019: Images by Laurens Morel
Photos by Laurens Morel / Saltycolours.com / Nacra Sailing. Complete galleries at Nacra Sailing FB. Great pics by Laurens Morel , check the Nacra infusion MKIII equipped with the flying kit: Nacra 17 main Foil and the special made L rudders made for the production MKIII foiling kit on cassettes castings.
Now Nacra has launched a new F18 which wont be offering convertible features, but the issue there is that the MKIII was not thoroughly tested before launch and sell offers. Still its a great alternative, for instance imagine the owners of the MKIII featured above, after the Raid they can fit legal F18 foils and go back to Legal F18 Racing without having to spend +35k on a Nacra F20 FCS to have some foiling fun or additional speed for Long Distance races.
We hope Nacra can offer in the future the convertible package again for the new 2020 F18 design. We are waiting for full disclosure on that one to publish.
