The Corsair 31, originally launched as the F31, represents a watershed moment in the evolution of performance multihulls. Designed by the visionary Ian Farrier and introduced in the early 1990s, this vessel was the direct successor to the trailblazing F27. It was engineered to provide a significant increase in volume and speed while maintaining the revolutionary "Farrier Folding System," which allows the 22foot, 5inch sailing beam to retract to a streetlegal 8 feet, 2 inches. This capability effectively bridged the gap between a highperformance racing machine and a trailerable weekend cruiser. Throughout its production run, which transitioned from Farrier’s direct oversight to Corsair Marine’s independent development after their professional split in 2000, the hull remained a benchmark for structural integrity and versatility. The design utilized vacuumbagged foamcore construction with extensive use of carbon fiber in highstress areas (particularly in the 'R' and 'RS' versions), ensuring a lightweight platform that remains competitive in offshore regattas decades after its debut.
