Our 62′ Flying Nikka was launched in Valencia, Spain by King Marine in early May, successfully foiling on her first day of sail trials. This complex project required the largest design team we have yet assembled, and demanded the most from the builder King Marine and project manager Micky Costa to deliver on time. The brainchild of Roberto Lacorte, Flying Nikka is aimed at OSR Cat. 3 offshores such as the Rolex Giraglia and 151 Miglia races, as well as the Maxi Worlds in Sardinia.
Our 62′ Offshore Foiler ‘Flying Nikka’ won the Foiling Project Award at the 5th Foiling Awards prizegiving ceremony in Milan. Received by project founder Roberto Lacorte who said he was “Honored to receive this important award and to share it with those who believe in FlyingNikka“
Mark recorded an interview with Matt Sheahan from PlanetSail, one of the keenest America’s Cup foiler-watchers, about our 60′ fully foiling Flying Nikka project under construction at King Marine.
