F18: The New Formula 18 from Loday-White


2009 season in Europe and USA is going to bring us some new toys.
New F18 from Hobie and one already sailing: The Loday-White brand new F18.

Builders of the now “ancient” Dart Hawk and more modern SpitFire, the talented pair are now providing an alternative to the Infusion and Capricorn.
Square shapes, lots of volume and stern rails, but no bow ones like the Spitfire or the new Hobie.
Rails are trend now, just look at VOR boats bows…

But Swell catamarans are pioneers on this subject with their Dart 16 and Spitfire designs.
Another cat that has full hull lenght rails our own RC 16 (more later)
