The F4 is no longer in production but we would like to tell you about the characteristics of this foiling race multihull.
Catamaran foil racing. Thanks to the support of our partners this boat is the result of an industry-wide collaboration to help bring one-design production foiling into a real world racing environment The ultimate goal of the F4 Class is to build the Tour de Foil one design racing series. In the clear-coated carbon version the boat looks more like weapon with its sleek hulls and reverse bows. The sophisticated deck plan provides clear control and minimal air resistance.
