Setting records for years

The world’s leading high-performance catamaran. The most successful F18 catamaran. A true blast to sail.

The Nacra F18 range  has been dominating the racing circuit for decades. With this latest iteration of the record breaking F18 Infusion , the MKIII , we’ve turned it up a notch. The Infusion MKIII design is suitable for an incredibly wide range of weather conditions, making competitive catamaran sailing an accessible treat for both experienced as well as new sailors. And since 2021 the MKIII comes with an open multi-functional centerboard, designed to turn a best-in-class F18 into a fully foiling monster in less than 30 minutes 1 .

Usage Competitive racing Foiling Touring

Crew 2  Sailors

1 – PLEASE NOTE:  The F18 is one of our finest class legal racers. However, its foiling version is not yet approved for the official Formula 18 Class fleet. To accommodate sailors, the Foiling Package  comes with a conversion kit for easy conversion back to class legal.

THE BENCHMARK OF BOX RULES RACING

The Nacra F18 Infusion is a real racer, the hull volume is larger than other F18’s, which means higher speeds and rapid and precise boat handling. The wave piercing technology reduces drag and improves speed in all conditions. Whether you’re driving in big seas and big winds or gliding on a flat lake, the Infusion is a winner. In contrast to other designs, the Nacra Infusion MKIII stabilizes herself at high speed due to dynamic lift, hence reducing pitching to low levels yielding a far more consistent airflow over the sails, leading to those higher speeds.  When you

are an   MKIII  owner, you  don’t need to add anything, it’s all there. The fully battened jib, the self-tacking jib rail, the large spinnaker chute and the Harken™ Cunningham downhaul system which enables total mainsail control. Get high upwind with the high aspect daggerboards, responsive and positive rudders, a tightened trampoline from all four sides giving a firmer, drier, cleaner spacious platform. The sophistication of Performance Sails and the wind mast shape complement each other perfectly to allow you to improve your results.

This boat is a real winner, it became World Champion in 2008, 2009, 2013, 2014 and 2015 in the F18 class. In 2019, Nacra Sailing released the Infusion’s successor – the Nacra F18 Evolution .

The fully battened jib, the self tacking jib rail, the large spinnaker chute, the Harken ®   Cunningham downhaul system enables total mainsail control, ask your dealer for the options. The high aspect daggerboards get you high upwind, the rudders are responsive and positive, trampoline is tightened from all four sides giving a firmer, drier, cleaner spacious platform. The sophistication of  Performance Sails  and the wing mast shape complement each other perfectly to allow you to improve your results.

You can customize your Nacra F18 Infusion with multiple upgrades and additions to make your catamaran truly yours.

Ready to start flying?

ON SELECTED MODELS

All models outfitted with an Foiling Package ( FCS or   Flight Control System for short ) are ready for full foiling – during your sail, specialized hydrodynamic daggerboards combined with upwards pressure make you get a controlled ‘flight’, meaning your whole boat will be above the water, rather than in it. Make alterations on the water during your flight to find the groove you are looking for and fly over water to leave others behind.

These so-called  Foil sets are designed to fly in a wide range of weather conditions, to make competitive catamaran sailing accessible to even more sailors, and are built to meet the highest safety standards. A real treat for the more, or a little less, experienced sailors.

Using the best possible manufacturing techniques available, we’ve obtained maximum strength with minimum weight using autoclave technology, curing the pre-impregnated carbon/epoxy at 120 degrees Celsius at an atmospheric pressure of 6 bar. It will put you miles ahead of any fleet in terms of performance and joy.

NACRA F18 Evolution

The NACRA F18 Evolution is a racing Catamaran built with advanced technology, sophisticated design tools and 45 years of experience. The main purpose of the new Formula 18 design was to build upon the unique pedigree of the NACRA F18 Infusion as the best all-round performing F18, across the full range of sailing conditions for every sailor. The most distinctive feature of this Evolution F18 is its hull shape design –  an aggressively styled raked wave-piercing bow with a horizontal hull chine that runs back into the transom. This design offers a unique compromise for both sailing upwind and downwind at different speeds. Moreover, the optimized foredeck in front of the main beam and embedded beams into the hull add elegance to this design. The updated longitudinal beam position optimizes the hydrodynamic and aerodynamic balance between the sail plan and appendages.

Seller's Description

Purchased new in 2010, but hardly used due to short beach.

Equipment: main sail,spinnaker,rudders etc.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

aka NACRA F18, NACRA F18 INFUSION. Mainsail Area: 182 sq ft / 17 sq m Jib Area: 37.13 to 44.67 sq ft / 3.45 to 4.15 sq m Asym. Spin. Area: 204 to 226 sq ft / 19 to 21 sq m

Up to 20: cruiser / Over 20: sports cruiser / Over 30: racer

Sometimes it’s hard to see from the outside what performance you might expect from one sailing boat vs another and so, like in cars, one measure often used is the Power to Weight ratio, in boats this is called the Sail Area to Displacement ratio or SAD. This is a universal measure that allows us to compare widely different models and come to a reasonably accurate view on their likely relative performance under similar sailing conditions.

Multihull World use a variation of the SAD calculations used by the major sail racing organisations and the figures we publish broadly look like this:

• SAD under 15 : Motor sailer
• SAD 15 - 20: cruiser
• SAD 20 - 25: Performance cruiser
• SAD 25 – 30: Cruiser racer
• SAD above 30: race boat

The calculation takes the upwind sail area and divides it by the actual weight of the boat. The calculation is a little more complicated than that but that’s the essence. It takes no account of hull shape, skipper quality or any other differences.

Unfortunately, not every vendor knows the sail area of their sails and not everyone knows the weight of their boat – for this reason we sometimes don’t have the SAD available to publish. Also, some manufacturers publish a weight that is well below the real weight of their boats and in that way appear to have much more performance than they actually do.

However, leaving those anomalies aside, we think this measure is an interesting one for those who are comparing multihulls or are coming to multihulls for the first time.

As a general rule – one generally trades performance for accommodation. If your boat is under 50ft and has walkways either side of beds low in the hull then she isn’t going to sail very well!
