🛶 Nacra F20 – Full Presentation
🔧 History & Design
The Nacra F20 is a high-performance sailing catamaran designed for speed, adrenaline, and modern sailing technology. It was introduced in the early 2010s by Nacra Sailing, a Dutch manufacturer known for building fast, reliable multihulls.
The F20 was developed as a step beyond the capabilities of the Nacra F18, especially with the introduction of the Nacra F20 Carbon FCS (Flight Control System), a foiling version equipped with L-shaped daggerboards and T-shaped rudders for full hydrofoil flight. It targets experienced sailors seeking cutting-edge performance in double-handed racing.
🧠 Naval Architecture
The F20 was designed by Nacra’s internal development team in collaboration with Morrelli & Melvin, a world-renowned American naval architecture firm known for its multihull expertise, including in the America’s Cup.
