Reply to: Budget sails for Nacra F20C

Message body

[quote=mosherudko][b]Thanks everybody for your advice[/b].
 I located in Israel and often race. The thing is that more  of our colleagues changing from the F20C to the F18 formula due to the high maintenance cost of the boat. Usually it locked you out for several weeks till Nacra Holland sends a replacement. We use the SCHRS handy cap while racing with other multi haul classes. This is sometime frustrated because the HC takes in consideration the boat dimensions and not compensate the varied weather conditions. And so if you get to the finish line much ahead  and the wind keeps developing at that time, the smaller boats have the chance to shorten the gap while the F20C already finished  :-(

It's normally take about 30 minutes to setup the boat and another hour for clearance. Means that you are quite tired after 3 hours sailing and have no energy to wash and try the sails time and again.

I have the black carbon sails and I wasn't aware of the Technora sails. Will further check this. Do you have an idea about the cost of Technora main and jib sailcloth for the F20C? I will also check the brands you have mentioned.
Thanks
