That looks absolutely great. I know you need the non-slip and everything but, for a show boat, that jars a bit though.

Presumably a brand new boat with a paint job like that is designed to make as big a visual impact as possible? Not meeting that it is going to a show specifically
Otherwise it'd just be.

That looks fantastic - does the performance match the looks?

Could be wrong, but wasn't that the Nacra F16 not the 17? You would kind of expect it if it was the 16 as the Viper has been refined for a while.
 
"First event with the Nacra F16 against International viper team with Olympic sailors such as Carolijn Brouwer giving us a hard time at the Thailand regatta. Not yet found the winning pace yet but we are benchmarking against the viper that exist already for 4 years. This is great and they will bring us up to the appropriate speed in the class and beyond. The pioneering part on how to set the trim right is fun to do and this place is great to sail, everybody should come here next year! The Nacra F20 Carbon is leading after 6 races!! Great people at Varuna Yachtclub!!" -- Off the Nacra FB page.
