About the Boat

The name Sagres comes from a historical landmark in navigation, where cartographers, astronomers, mathematicians, sailors, and experienced shipbuilders founded a community of knowledge and expertise in a small village in southern Portugal, revolutionizing the history of maritime navigation. This place became known as the School of Sagres. The goal was to achieve maximum performance in flatwater conditions.

The starting point was to reduce the rocker (banana effect) of the renowned and champion Excel S hull. This modified hull was incorporated into the deck of the Huracan, which features a very comfortable and protected cockpit. The harmonization of the design brought about a volume that also revealed it as an option for downwind paddling. This model was designed by Diego Vale Designs alongside experienced athletes, and after on water tests, they provided feedback that the goal of having an incredible performance canoe experience had been achieved.

Layups Description

P	Polyethylene	Built-in polyethene material. With more than 50% recycled material!
A1	Fiberglass Epoxy	This is the basic layup that is meant to be an affordable option for touring and learning boats.
F	Hybrid Carbon Epoxy	A very durable and resistant layup, ideal for sprint training and competition. A great balance between stiffness and price.
WWR	Carbon/Kevlar Epoxy	It was specifically developed for down river, marathon training, and sea racing. It stands out for the balance between its lightness and stiffness.
G	Carbon Honeycomb Epoxy	High-quality construction, amazing stiffness, prepared for high performance.
E	Lightweight Carbon Epoxy	It was specifically developed for marathon events. As light as it can be while being very resilient in a demanding sport.
SCS	Solid Composite System	Provides an excellent performance level because of it’s extreme stiffness, the result of using state-of-the-art materials and technologies. Ideal for high level competition. This layup also stands out for the available options, such as, weights, covers, fittings and designs.
FC	Full Carbon	The beauty of a clear carbon boat while being the stiffest layup, all possible by using an infusion process for maximum fiber and resin impregnation.
AIR	Ultralight Weight	Was specifically developed for surfski boats, standing out for being extremely lightweight. It’s especially suited for high performance in all conditions.

How to Setup your Nelo Boat

The Perfect trim | Valid for flatwater models

As with any high-performance machine, there is an ideal configuration where our boats are at peak efficiency, specifically with the angle of attack (pitch). This guide will help you trim your boat in order to be at that perfect angle when at speed.

Check the table and images below to find the right measures for your boat size. That’s how you find the optimum static rending.
Using a marker trace a small straight line, according to the right measure indicated in the table, on the bow for the static line;
With the boat stopped, adjust your seat and footrest position so that the static line is levelled with the waterline. At that point is the Optimum Static Rending.

The measures we provide are for the median weight for each boat size (80 kg on an L, for example). So if you are on the limits of the boat’s weight range, the line will be over or under water, but the most important is that the static line is still levelled with the waterline.

DISCLAIMER
These ideal trims were the result of real-world testing and CFD analysis, under optimal conditions: flat water, constant speed, no wind, and average water temperature. Meaning that these results may not apply to other scenarios.
