The Dart 18 is one of the most spectacular racing boats in the world. The design is almost 30 years old, but still isn’t outdated! Worldwide there are a lot of races on this one-design catamaran. The boat is fun for everyone, from children to practice how to sail catamarans, to fully trained racing-teams.
Races with the Dart 18 are spectacular to see, imagine 70 catamarans going 20 knots per hour (35 km/h) with a lot of spray from the water, so the helmsman can’t see a lot! The speed makes it difficult to round the marks which results in a exiting moment for all the sailors and spectators.
