DX 15 Catamaran

The DX 15 Catamaran is based on a donor Dart 15 or Spark that is renovated and brought up to class legal Sprint 15 specification. This is then fitted with a modified mainsail, jib and forestay. to bring it up to the DX 15 specification. This gives you a quality boat that, with quick and easy rig changes, can be sailed at all Sprint 15 and DX 15 modes.This is probably the most affordable, versatile and environmentally friendly small racing catamaran on the market.

The DX sails have had 2.5 years of testing and trials to collect race data and is now in full one design production. The DX Sport has an official handicap rating of SCHRS = 1.171 and a look-a-like PY = 812

The DX 15 Catamaran is designed to attract young and new sailors who want the excitement of modern small cat sailing but are not yet wanting to commit the funds needed for the latest sports catamarans.

DX 15 owners currently have the following racing options:

• to Sail DX 15 mode in their club racing
• to sail DX 15 mode at all Open Catamaran and DX 15 events,
• to sail Sprint 15 Sport mode, solo or two up at all Sprint 15 Traveller events, Sprint 15 Sport Nationals and Sprint 15 Nationals,
• to sail Sprint 15 Unirig at all Sprint 15 Traveller events and the Sprint 15 Nationals.
