Experience the thrill of sailing with this legendary 1991 Corsair F-27, meticulously maintained and outfitted with numerous extras for both performance and comfort. This trimaran stands out with its eye-catching Awlgrip Fighting Yellow hull and is ready for your next adventure.
History & Upgrades:
I acquired this remarkable boat after a thrilling multihull race in Sarasota, Florida. It was then thoroughly checked and upgraded by the renowned Steve Marsh at Finish Line of the Treasure Coast in Stuart, Florida. We added a Harken roller furler and Dacron sails, performed a comprehensive bottom job, and then embarked on a year of unforgettable family voyages around Florida. During 2018, my wife, three kids, and I enjoyed consecutive week-long sailing trips, exploring the shallow waters of Florida Bay and the Keys. The Corsair F-27’s high performance, spacious deck, and shallow 1.5-foot draft made it the perfect vessel for these adventures. In late 2019, we refreshed the boat once again, installing a reliable 9.9HP Suzuki EFI motor with power start and power tilt, and updating the upholstery. The boat was then relocated to the Western Carolina Sailing Club on Lake Hartwell and now resides at our private dock on the same lake as of 2023. This Corsair F-27 is more than just a sailboat; it’s a proven, fast, and blue-water-capable vessel that is also trailerablesimply amazing. This boat has filled us with cherished memories and is ready to create new ones with its next owner. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or looking to start your sailing journey, this trimaran offers unmatched performance and comfort.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
The F-28, introduced in 1998, is similar but with a number of small updates including a rotating spar.
(Renamed CORSAIR 28 in 2001.)
