The F-24 Sport Cruiser is an American trailerable trimaran that was designed by Ian Farrier as a cruising version of the Farrier F-24. It was first built in 1991. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Contents

Based on the larger F-27 Sport Cruiser, the F-24 Sport Cruiser design was developed into the Corsair 24 Mark II, also called the F-24 Mark II in 1994. [1] [2] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

Production

The design was built by Corsair Marine in the United States, from 1991 to 1994, but it is now out of production. [1] [2] [10] [11]

Design

The F-24 Sport Cruiser is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of vacuum bag molded fiberglass, Kevlar, carbon fiber over a foam core. It has a fractional sloop rig with a rotating mast. The hull and outriggers have nearly plumb stems and reverse transoms. The hull has an open transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable daggerboard. It displaces 1,800 lb (816 kg) and carries no ballast. [1] [2] [9]

The beam is 17.92 ft (5.46 m) with the outriggers deployed and 8.17 ft (2.49 m) them folded. [1] [2]

The boat has a draft of 4.67 ft (1.42 m) with the daggerboard extended and 12 in (30 cm) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer. [1] [2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for two adults and two children. The galley is equipped with a stove and a sink. A head is also provided. [9]

The design has a hull speed of 6.51 kn (12.06 km/h). [2]
