The Corsair 31 is a true performance cruiser. It features comfortable accommodations for 4-6 adults, a spacious cockpit, “acres” of deck space and standing headroom below. The performance oriented sailplan provides the experienced sailor with exhilarating performance yet is manageable enough that the boat can easily be handled by virtually anyone. This 31 is a flier, fast and light weight. Originally delivered as a the first Corsair race 31 designated “R”, with only the starboard & port settees, no galley and no head. It was modified to add back a light weight 1/2 wall 1/2 curtain head space with a vanity and sink and a location for a porta potti.

Accommodations This boat with its aft cockpit arrangement sleeps 4-5. The v-berth is a large comfortable space for a couple. The main cabin settees convert into a large double bunk. Then main cabin also has a pipe berth that is perfect for children, or an adult sleeping when underway. There is ample storage space behind and under the settees. The head compartment is located to port of the daggerboard trunk in custom built compartment. There is a light weight composite half bulkhead topped with a privacy curtain. Inside is a vanity counter with a sink that discharges overboard. The toilet is a porta potti chemical toilet.
Galley There is no galley. For cruising the owners brings along a portable propane stove and whatever else they need for cooking and eating.

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)
Beam folded: 8.16’.
Available in aft cockpit (AC) and center cockpit (CC) models. Each available with ‘R’ (racing option) with bowsprit and carbon spar.
This design, of one variant or another, has proved to be one of the most popular of all the Farrier/Cosair designs.
(Evolved from the F-9A, which was offered as a stock plan.)
