Every gram matters on the Nacra 17. Every friction point costs you speed. This is the gear we have tested at Olympic level — what we actually use, and why.
🧤 Harnesses
AIRY & Helium Pro — Light Wind
Best for: Venues with soft or variable breeze.
Minimal profile. Featherlight. Built for freedom of movement when the boat demands constant body input. If you are rigging up at a light-wind venue, this is your combo.
The H — Strong Wind
Best for: Heavy air, full power, maximum class-legal performance.
Stiffer support, built to handle sustained hiking loads. When conditions push you to the limit, The H is what you strap on. Engineered to help you go as hard as the class rules allow.
⚙️ Aerocleat — 8 Versions
Co-designed by Nacra 17 Olympic sailors Tara Pacheco and Sam Sills. The cleat the market did not have — so we made it.
- Materials: Titanium (lightest, strongest) or Aluminium
- Handle options: Handleless / 25mm / 30mm / 35mm
3D-printed, precision-engineered, and built to outlast a full Olympic cycle. Nothing else compares for weight and feel on the wire.
🔩 Low Friction Rings
Replace blocks and fairleads where you need a light, clean solution. Every gram and every friction point adds up over a race — these eliminate both.
Available: 3.5mm to 29mm · 5 colours
🎿 Tiller Extension
Light, balanced, precise. Designed for the fast, fine steering inputs the Nacra 17 demands at speed. If your current tiller feels heavy or dead — upgrade.
🛡️ SLEEVE — Block Protection
Ropes catching on blocks = lost races. The SLEEVE stops it.
Printed in flexible TPU — soft enough not to damage the rig, tough enough to last a full season. Available in 4 configurations (57mm/40mm · 90°/180°).
🔗 LOOPS
Small. Light. Brutally efficient. Used throughout the Nacra 17 rig as low-friction, low-weight connection points.
Available in: Inox · Titanium Grade 2 · Titanium Grade 5
🪝 Boom Guide
Protects the boom fitting from wear — gybes, close-quarters racing, repeated loading. Small part, big impact on longevity.
👟 CUBEN Footstraps
For sailors who prefer to go barefoot or minimalist. Ultra-light Cuben fiber, no padding, no bulk — pure connection to the boat.
Everything here is designed and tested by Olympic sailors. If it is on this page, it is because we actually use it.
