2005 Corsair F-24 Mark II Trimaran

Want to sail fast? This 2005 Corsair F-24 trimaran can hit speeds of 18+ knots. Can you handle it?

The amazing design and construction of this 24 foot trimaran allows it to go from an extended sailing beam of 18 feet, and folds down to 8 feet for trailering, or to go in a slip.

This Corsair has been well cared for and well sailed over the years, and just needs a good cleaning to make her shine.
The mainsail is on a roller-boom; the jib has a roller-furler and a spinnaker with a dousing sock is included.

The 2005 Tohatsu 5hp four-stroke outboard received a full service tune-up, including fresh oil and gear case fluid, new spark plug, new fuel filter, new water pump kit and a new carburetor.

In the cabin there is room for four to sleep, a small galley area with sink and cooking burner. A portable head sits below under one on the cushions.

Included is a galvanized, single-axle trailer that has new tires. It is ready to tow. The boat and trailer weigh about 3,000 lbs. for easy towing to new destinations.

LOA: 24 feet
Beam: 18 feet
Draft: 1.2 – 4.7 feet
Weight: 1,690 lbs.
Motor: 2005 5hp Tohatsu Four-Stroke Outboard
