Multihulls World Magazine: Corsair 37RS Review in Next Issue

Multihulls World Magazine will publish a review of the C37RS at the end of this month. We were forwarded a few of the highlights from the fothcomming article, and thought we would share them with you below:
· "The 20hp Honda is perfectly suited to the boat, torque and speed are amply sufficient for anyone who follows the philosophy of real auxiliary propulsion under 1 reef and the jib, the 37’ didn’t stop giving us positive messages everything was going well aboard!"
· "I opened the throttle on a close reach and immediately felt that I liked this pretty trimaran; the boat speed was steady and high (13 – 14 kts), and it passed through the waves cleanly and smoothly."
· "The 37’RS strode along strongly, whilst leaving a delicate wake, and communicated homogenous structure-feelings."
· "The overall geometry is very good;the helm remained light and directional, almost neutral."
· "Progress against the wind was fast, the RS showed itself to be generous, precise and reassuring."
· "The floats’ vertical thrust is unequivocal and generates a lot of confidence."
· "The machine purred away at 18 – 19 knots, surfing at over 22 knots!"
· "It demonstrated a really fun potential, and a good safety margin."
· "The floats work in real collusion with the central hull."
· "Christian Malardeau (the importer of the Corsairs) was jumping for joy: his trimaran had just beaten the 2nd boat by 35 minutes on a 2-hour leg!"
· "A superb sailing pleasure machine, the 37’RS is also a real cruising boat, bright, comfortable and elegant."
· "Unladen, it proves to be a formidable racing machine in the hands of a sporting crew."
· "The 37’RS’s qualities propel it directly into the fairly closed circle of top of the range folding boats."

San Francisco Nood 2010

Gary on Corsair 750 Sprint

On June 25th and 26th we took part in the SF Nood Regatta in our Sprint 750. To race with the other Corsair 24's we had to put in a reef and take 240lbs of sand bags on board, which luckly gave us a great excuse to fall back on for our mediocre final results. All joking aside... it was a tough two days of racing. There were gust over 30knts and large Bay swells slamming us every few seconds going up wind. It was intense stuff.

The Corsair 24 sailors that came out for the event were some of the the best in California, and it was a treat to race against such a great class of sailors. On the way home from the St. Francis on Sunday, the sun came out, and we had a great spinnaker run all the way back home to Alameda.
