NACRA 5.2

The NACRA 5.2 was one of the first production catamarans that NACRA produced. A major distinction between the “new” and the “old boats, is that the “old” 5.2 catamarans had a 1/2″ dolphin striker rod and 1.25″ ball, with a spreader on the mast that was a single rod that went through the center of the mast, rather than the “new” boats that used a 9/16″ rod with a 1.5″ ball, and the spreaders were mounted to the exterior of the mast, with a bracket and 4 rods.
