The multihull taken out of the Olympic program was to most multihull sailors a big shock. Being one of the most spectacular sailing classes around, therefore we are happy that ISAF and IOC will bring the multihull back for the next Olympic cycle. At Nacra we have studied the criteria thoroughly and submit two boats (Nacra F16 and Nacra 17) of which we are convinced will meet the ISAF criteria.
