Corsair 31 Trimaran?

[jbarros]

Ok, I know, way out of my leauge for the moment, but for coastal cruising, Pacific, Mexico, and central America, What are your thoughs on these?

I know they wont point as well, and I know they''re a little cramped (I was below on one a while ago) but MAN are they fast, and well... I dont know, I just realy liked it.

I''d apreciate information and/or informed opinions from anyone in the know.

Thanks

You do sacrifice interior space for the speed but I think you''d be surprised with how well they can point. The boat suits our needs perfectly and we couldn''t be happier! If you think of a cruising monohull as a minivan and an F31 as a Porsche it will help you understand the differences...

many of the dealers now use yachtworld to host their listings online so you should be able to find some used boats there.
