Mackay Boats developed the new FX rig for the 49er. After 9 months of testing by the Mackay team the boat was taken to Santander (ESP) and trialed againt 5 other boats by the ISAF evaluation committee.
The boat was finally selected at the ISAF mid-year conderence in early May and will be used for the 2016 Olympics in Brazil.
Since the ISAF trials in Santander we have continued working on the FX with many hours of 2 boats testing.
