Early to mid 90’s Daniel and I took a Nacra 5.0 with a Nacra 5.8 rig and a 9’ rack off the starboard side. The boat was extremely fast….. when it was upright. We learned the physics of buoyancy. The boat pivoted on the windward hull, not the leeward. We pitchpoled the boat 7-8 times that weekend. If it wasn’t my good 5.8 rig, I would have left the whole thing on the flats.
