The standard in Formula 16 sailing. Recreational or highly competitive. The carbon stepping stone.
Overview
TheNacra F16 Carbonoffers everything race teams look for in a mature racing cat and more. It is the preferred choice for lightweight crews of all ages and is suitable for both double-handed and single-handed sailing.
The boat comes in a full Class approved configuration as standard. But you can easily switch to semi-foiling performance. If you wish to take yourF16even further, there are several exciting options available.
ALWAYS BE ONE STEP AHEAD
TheFormula 16 Classused to be an assembly of ‘homemade’ boats, but ever since World Sailing (ISAF back then) recognized the Class as official in 2010, it matured quickly. From the beginning, Nacra Sailing was convinced that Formula 16 sailing will grow and rise to new heights and so we’ve decided to make a dedicated Class boat. Together with the legendary engineers from
Morelli&Melvin we’ve designed a boat that has become the standard for almost every type of sailor – from the recreational solo-sailor to competitive teams searching for the cutting edge. And of course, it fits perfectly into the Olympic pathway: TheNacra F16 Carbonis the perfect steppingstone from youth to full Olympic sailing.
