Where state are you in? I have been toying with the idea of buying a bigger cat, that would mean my NACRA Inter 17 2000 model would need a new home? I am in FL by CLearwater.

I owned a Nacra 5.7,, Great boat, forgiving and lots of fun but a better family boat then thrill boat like the Nacra F17. Not that I didnt have some wild rides on her.
It does better with square top sails in low wind and not having daggerbaords is good and bad at the same time. The 5.7 wont do well flying a spinnaker either although one is on here for sale now and then. The 5.7 shock cord rudders have a lot to be desired also. Choose your path wisely grasshopper. If I was to be going down the path your on the 570 has a lot more upgrades and is one great family or race boat. It can also have a wings package.
