Corsair 31 and 31R

The swift and versatile Corsair 31 and Corsair 31R far-ranging sport cruisers are capable of race-winning speeds exceeding 20 knots. Available in an aft cockpit or aft cabin, the Corsair 31 accommodates up to five in comfort with standing headroom, galley and enclosed head, yet is easily handled by a couple, or even single-handed. Floats fold quickly and easily to an 8' 2" beam for convenient docking in standard marina slips or trailering to an unlimited variety of cruising grounds or racing venues. The "R" version, also available in two models, places less emphasis on interior cruising amenities to save weight and boost performance. Bob Gleason, Ira Heller and crew have won the 31 Nationals each year since 1998 except one. By sea or land, Corsair 31s get there faster.

Corsair 31 Center-cockpit Model

The Corsair 31 Center-cockpit Model has a private sleeping area in the stern. This has also proved to be an ideal and safe place for small children to play. The main cabin has two settees and a galley and there is a cozy-double V-berth forward.
