A step up in the series is the NACRA F20 which is similar in design a bit longer made of carbon fiber and equipped with curved daggerboards as foils and T.
Catamaran foil design. Sail with us in 2018 in very foil one design catamaran class. The F50 is the new one-design foiling 50ft catamaran used for the SailGP circuit and is adapted from the AC50 used in the 2017 Americas Cup. Their foiler also needed to be efficiently produced durable.
Changing the way you foil. To design an affordable hydrofoil Steve and Dave Clark realized they couldnt just strip down an existing high-performance model. It was created as a one-design class to provide each of SailGPs eight national teams with equal cutting-edge technology leaving the race results directly in the hands of the world-class athletes.
Catamaran twin narrow width hulls provide a faster passage with minimum forward resistance. The F50 is a one-design foiling catamaran used in the SailGP race series. THE REAL ONE DESIGN CLASS.
The DNA design team for the G4 foiling catamaran included the well-known Dutch industrial design engineer Rudo Enserink. The Catana 59 was fitted with these curved daggerboards that look like foils. Patented by the company developing the Mothquito IFS Foiling the IFS design extends the dynamic length and beam on flight affording greater performance and stability compared to its hull size.
Some examples of foiling cats include the NACRA 17 that raced in the 2016 Olympics and a modified version will be in Tokyo 2020. The design of the F1x foiling A-class catamaran was completely conceived by the DNA design team and made at DNAs own yard. Everyone can use and everyone can fly.
