Re: Schionning Cats

Depends on who builds them for sure as if you had Noosa or Stallion build it would be a world class boat, but almost as much as a Catana. It will be faster than the Catana as well. I have Met Jeff...

Re: Your favorite multi-hull from 32-41ft

Corsair 37' Fast fun sailing with 50cm draft. Put a bimini on it and you got yourself a nice ride. The way sailing should be. Simple.

Re: Anyone cruising a Corsair F37?

Yup Sounds about right. Wanted to take some video in the choppy stuff but it was full on. Like Driving around hairpin turns in a Porsche then trying to fiddle with a camera. Next time my friend will...

Re: Anyone cruising a Corsair F37?

Hmmm the other side of the boat was under, I was getting pretty nervous. This was pushing it for sure. Unless you are racing or a speed junkie and can afford some things to break, I wouldn't want to...

Re: Anyone cruising a Corsair F37?

Re: Anyone cruising a Corsair F37?

My Corsair 37 will be arriving the end of June so can tell you about it after then. I talked to previous owners and they were very happy with them. The boat comes with a 5 year structural warranty...

Re: 35-40 liveaboard tri, is it possible???

Go for the Searunner. Also think you could sell it for close to what you paid for it several years later.

Re: 35-40 liveaboard tri, is it possible???

I am receiving my Corsair 37' in 2 weeks and know of a couple people living off them. Perfect for 2 as a live a board. The Searunners much cheaper due to age and usually homebuilt, but have more room...

Re: I'm too old not to buy my last boat first.

Couldn't agree more. I am surprised that I don't hear more people buying boats in this area and using them as a second home while cruising then fly back home to Europe or North America. A lot more to...

Re: Trimaran for a Single Hander... why not?

Tris are not cheaper than cats. They are two totally different boats, and a Corsair 37 is $300,000 then extras add up to $50,000 more. Used maybe $200,000. Those Searunners look like good value often...

Re: Trimaran for a Single Hander... why not?

I decided on a Tri after owning a new 46' catamaran with all the bells and whistles. Realized I like the simplicity of sailing and love what a tri has to offer. I kind of feel like the guy from...

Re: Who is Toyota, Lexus, Mercedes, Ferrari Equivalents?

Talked with a couple owners and they are very happy with the Corsair 37. Averaging 11knots an hour on long trips and hitting well over 20 knots. Sleeps 7. Big enough for 3-4 people to comfortably...

Re: Portable Generator Air Conditioner Setup.

Nice one! That whole setup for about $600! Even if it lasted just a season it would be great. Plus could pull it from the boat when needed. Does it drain into the cockpit? WOnder if 5000 btu would...

Re: What Do You Do for a Living?

Re: What Do You Do for a Living?

LEXUS already does this. Also has a sensor with night vision that can view people at night before you do and alert you. Also a sensor that monitors your eyes to make sure that you don't fall asleep...
