Capricorn Test Lyt TEST CAPRICORN CAPRICORN Y&Y PHOTO JEREMY EVANS PHOTO A sleek and sexy cat from Australia has been pushing its bows to the front of the European Formula 18 fleet. TEST Jeremy Evans assesses the AHPC Capricorn… ormula 18 is a development class in although sub-140kg crews must race with a small which all cats have the same length jib and kite and there is a ‘missing weight’ (18ft), racing weight (180kg ex-crew) and equalisation system for crews between 140-150kg. F potential performance figure (1.01) In practice most F18s appear to have a crew measured by the small cat handicap rating system weight averaging just under 160kg. known as SCHRS. Sails are the same size, Formula 18 is not a manufacturer’s class. It is ▲ YachtsandYachting.com open to all boat builders (including self-build), sailmakers and mast makers. This open competition is designed to keep costs down, helped by a ban on the use of carbon fibre and other expensive materials, with the 180kg minimum sailing weight making it practical to build cats that are ding-proof, durable and affordable for club sailors. The problem with development classes is that a new design can wipe the floor, making everything redundant. It’s a tribute to the F18 rule that this has never happened. Since the class was launched in 1994, older designs have tended to fade away slowly. Despite being one of the original F18 designs, the French-built Hobie Tiger has won every world championship bar one, helped by Hobie Europe hiring some of the world’s very best cat racers. The Tiger has also been updated with new internal construction and rig, while the F18 class has kept pace with the times by introducing cautious rule changes. Below The Capricorn’s There are a dozen different F18 designs hulls are slim on top but currently available with Nacra (USA) and Cirrus plump underneath with (France) providing the most consistent challenge ‘wave piercing’ to the Tiger. They have been joined by the dreadnought bows. Australian-built Capricorn, which has made a strong impact in its first full European season. A Capricorn led the 2005 F18 world championship on the last day, until a black flag relegated it to fifth overall with other Capricorns finishing third and 10th. Capricorns also won the F18 Championship and Travemunde Week in Germany, while in the UK they won the Three Piers and Forts long distance races. A good score — but is the Capricorn really any better than other F18s? Design Greg Goodall (of Goodall Sails) runs AHPC in Victoria, in association with Jim Boyer (Boyer Fibercraft) and the German designer Martin Fischer, whose portfolio includes working on the unbeatable 60ft trimaran ‘Groupama 2’. AHPC unashamedly claim to produce ‘The world’s finest catamarans’ — predominantly the Auscat and Australian Flyer which have won seven A-Class world championships over the last 15 years, plus the Taipan which has made little impact in Europe. Formula 18 is on a roll as the world’s most popular high performance cat class — the Tornado is certainly quicker, but longer, wider and more than twice the cost. The Capricorn is AHPC’s answer to the challenge of producing the fastest F18. Unlike any other current F18, its design heritage stems from A- Class with hulls that at first glance look very similar PHOTOS JEREMY EVANS PHOTOS to the Flyer — slim on top but plump underneath with ‘wave piercing’ dreadnought bows. Hobie also used this A-Class shape on their 20ft Fox and singlehanded FX-1, but the F18 Tiger is completely different. It looks tubby, stubby and a little old- fashioned alongside the sleek, sexy new Capricorn.

When ▲ pitch-poling on an offwind leg and bearing away, the Capricorn’s bows go down in heavy weather, YachtsandYachting.com ANSWER BACK from Andy Morse, Cat Bitz The report on the Capricorn is in general very complimentary, however Jeremy addressed a few important areas that AHPC has already identified. The first being that the Capricorn could not be driven as hard in larger waves. To improve stiffness all new front beams are torsionally stiffer, the front beam is 5mm taller and the grade of alloy used has been improved. The rear beam is also a little larger with a 10 per cent increase in wall thickness, importantly these new beams can be fitted to existing boats without any modifications. Greg Goddall has develoed a new spinnaker which has far greater speed and depth and is far more versatile for reaching. The mainsail is now a few centimetres wider, through the top half of the sail it also has more luff curve which gives it more power in light winds — extending the performance PHOTO JEREMY EVANS PHOTO band of the rig.

Some mast rotation can be half.

AHPC could reduce the price by reducing the high Overall the ubiquitous Tiger still gets the quality of fitment but we are committed to producing thumbs-up as the best F18 all-rounder, while the the best F18 on the market and to this end the Capricorn is quickest to the all-important first Capricorn has increased its list of impressive results mark. But these differences are very small.
