Brand:

Corsair

Designed by:

Corsair Marine Inc. (based on original Ian Farrier design)

Yard(s):

Corsair Marine Inc.

Description:

The Corsair 31-1D (One Design Racer) was created in 2004 to replace the 'R' (Racing) versions of the AC (Aft Cockpit) and CC (Centre Cockpit) models, in an effort to create a new one-design racing class.

The 31-1D is only available in the extended aft-cockpit configuration. Outstanding racing performance is achieved by a stripped-out racing interior, a carbon-fiber rig, retractable bowsprit, modified foil design, and a suite of racing sails including asymmetrical spinnaker and screacher.

Upon delivery, Corsair 31-1Ds are certified to comply with the one-design racing rules and specifications.

See the Corsair 31AC for full details.
