Nacra A2 |

The new Nacra A2 catamaran, with Pete
Melvin at the helm, swept the A-Class North American Championships with
7 bullets out of 11 races! 28 top sailors from North America competed
for the championships but were defeated by Melvin on the A2 who’s total
score was only 13 points. “The boat I sailed was a stock Nacra A2, built
with the latest materials and production processes, fresh out of the box
and included a Hall Spars mast and Ullman sail. It’s performance was
outstanding!” says Melvin. “The A2 was very fast in all conditions
sailed, including the 20 knot+ conditions experienced the first two
days, as well as the more moderate conditions at the end of the
regatta.” For more information about the A-Class North American Championship, go to www.usaca.info Winning the prestigious A-Class North American Championship has been the single-handed catamaran sailors goal since the inception of the class. A Class sailing has always been an individual effort until now. This year’s champion, Pete Melvin, credits his entire “team” with this win. About the Nacra A2: The Nacra A2 has low profile wave piercing bows to reduce pitching and wind resistance upwind, and low wetted surface area hulls to reduce resistance on all points of sail. The boat tacks and gybes very quickly and without losing much speed due to the rounded sections and carefully sculpted rocker line. |
