Discover the Difference.




Ease of Sailing

Whether you are sailing the 27 or the 49, every Hunter is designed to be easily handled by one or two people. The deck layouts, sailplans, and standard equipment are designed and selected to make sailing easy and fun no matter what the conditions. Experience it for yourself by arranging a test sail with your local dealer.

Value

Experts agree that you won’t find a better boat for the money than a Hunter. Our high volume purchasing power, design experience, and advanced construction techniques allow us to build an exceptionally high quality boat for less money than you might expect. If you haven’t sailed a Hunter lately, it’s time to get on board!

Low Maintenance

We know that you want to be sailing, not working! Above deck, high maintenance natural wood has been replaced with low maintenance materials like Flexiteek, Fiberglass or Stainless Steel. Mechanical components are chosen based on their reliability and warranty coverage, then placed in the boat for easy access. When the wind is up, you can relax and go sailing!

The Best Warranty in Sailing

Our 5 year Hull structure and blister warranty covers the true cost of repairs and is NOT pro-rated like some warranties. It’s also transferable upon resale helping to preserve the value of your investment. Hunter is the ONLY sailboat builder to offer a 5 year extended warranty that covers things like refrigeration, electronics, air conditioning systems and key engine components. You won’t find a more comprehensive new boat warranty in the business.

High Quality Exterior Hardware

All exterior hardware has been upgraded to include the biggest and best names in the business. you’ll find names you can trust such as Lewmar®, Spinlock®, Harken®, ProFurl®, and Selden® aboard the Hunter line.

Genuine Corian® Countertops

Genuine Corian® countertops are utilized throughout the entire Hunter keelboat line. This durable, yet beautiful material will hold its serviceability and luster for years to come.

Stainless Steel Arches

When Hunter first introduced the arch over 10 years ago, the skeptics were all against it. Today, many of those are now offering arches of their own. There is no question – the arch is a real asset. By placing the traveler up top, it keeps the cockpit clear and safe. As an attachment point for a bimini, it makes a clean installation. The arch is also perfect for stereo speakers and
cockpit lights.

Hunter Kevlar® Technology

Hunter adds the extra strength where you need it most. From the stem to the keel sump, Hunter has added a Kevlar® laminate to give you added protection against collisions. This is the most likely area for damage or penetration and Hunter provides an extra level of security.

Through-Bolted Hull to Deck Joints

Superb strength and integrity are achieved with a through-bolted hull to deck joint. The outward turned flanges of the deck and hull are first shaped for an exact fit. Then, 3M® 5200 sealant is evenly spread onto the joint prior to the lowering of the deck. The joint is then clamped together and through-bolted around the entire deck. An extra shot of epoxy is also laid down at the chainplates. Now, that’s strength!

B&R Rigs

Another Hunter innovation that has now been time-proven to be one of
the strongest and easiest to sail rigs ever designed. Like a tripod, the rig is supported from three sides with equal tension all the way around. The need for a backstay has been eliminated. This allows for a larger main that provides more efficient power that’s easier to manage. With the large main, the jib can be smaller and easier to handle as well. Power without perspiration!

Heavy Duty Rubrails

Hunter uses a high-density rubrail that wraps 360 degrees around the boat to protect the topsides from damage during docking. A stainless steel insert also enhances the rubrail's protection and beautifies the boat.

MaxGuard® and Microban® Gelcoats

Hunter decks are built with MaxGuard® gelcoat. This eliminates any yellowing and reduces crazing and fading. Heads and showers are laminated with Microban®, a special antibacterial gelcoat to protect you and your family. They cost us a bit more, but it’s worth it!

Modular Interior Construction

By building the interior outside the boat, Hunter can reduce labor costs and increase quality because of excellent accessibility. The interior is then permanently fused into the hull to make a true unibody structure.

Upgraded Interior Hardware and Fixtures

All interior hardware has undergone extensive testing and evaluation for strength, compatibility and longevity. All cabinetry and door hardware has been upgraded. You’ll feel the difference!

Premium Quality Entertainment Systems

Hunter offers factory installed flat screen TVs and Bose® audio systems. Some competitors believe “roughing it is all right”, but at Hunter we believe your comfort is more important. Enjoy the best in video and audio — you deserve it!

Extensive Dealer Network

An exclusive dealer intranet is in place to keep us in constant communication with them. Whether you need a small part sent or a large question answered, we are always online.

Corsair Marine has been building the world's best trailerable sailing trimarans since 1986. With over 1475 sailing waters all over the world, large fleets can be found in most states of the US with big numbers of boats all over Europe, Australia and Asia. They are without doubt the most popular trailerable Trimarans that exist today. Dealers represent and service Corsair Trimarans in over 20 different locations around the world, including La Vida Starships.
As a service to the owners of Corsairs, Corsair Marine sponsors the various models Class Associations.



There are 12 especially unique and desirable qualities that make Corsair Trimarans the best. Indeed, no other full-production trailerable trimaran design offers all 12.

1. Extraordinary speed and effortless acceleration are trademarks of Corsairs. Their ability to fly on a puff or generate their own high-power apparent wind is legendary. Without a lead keel to create drag, and with tangible buoyancy in construction technique and materials, Corsairs are powered effortlessly by their high-performance sails.
2. Comfortable stability at any speed and in almost all sea conditions is simply a feature of beam and buoyancy. Heel (often unpopular with sailors) is restricted to about 15 degrees; which feels like about five degrees on the broad, flat deck and trampolines of a Corsair.
3. Superior safety is inherent in the design and construction of these boats and it stems from the same features that make them sail flat and fast. Corsairs can't sink. In fact, with all hulls filled to the brim with water, the positive buoyancy of the materials of construction keep the vessel afloat even with all crew aboard.
4. Trailerability is not a hassle. It's an advantage. Especially since it only takes a single owner about 30 minutes to go from trailer to sailing and back again after a couple of practice runs. Corsairs fold up and pull out effortlessly, mast-down in moments, tow easily and smoothly, and save you a bundle on slip fees and seasonal storage.
5. Accommodations are ample and designed for extended cruising aboard the larger models, or streamlined for racing on all models. Berth areas are sufficient and comfortable, appliances an option, shower if you want one. You're apt to lounge on deck or in the cockpit most of the time, but when you do go below you'll have all the comfort you need.
6. Beachability! On a Corsair, you can just motor up to the beach, step off, and drop an anchor on land, where you can see if it set properly! No need to load up the dinghy as everything is with you aboard and nearby.
7. Unparalleled construction. Corsair won't compromise on materials or technique in construction. Corsair has pioneered high strength and lightweight construction technology that incorporates aerospace composite techniques, foam sandwich construction, glass fabrics, carbon fiber, Kevlar unidirectionals, and vacuum bagging for ideal glass to resin ratio.
8. The folding system. It's spectacular. It's patented. After 25-plus years of use worldwide, this folding system is well proven, and is the most successful and structurally sound available for trimarans.
9. Venerable design. Being built over 16 years, Corsairs have demonstrated an unsurpassed ability to accommodate innovations to sail plans, interior modifications, and accessories additions that hundreds of Corsair owners have requested. The end result is a line of performance sailboats that offer as much or as little as the people who sail them need and want.
10. Low maintenance. The combination of engineering and materials that make Corsairs so strong, sleek, fast and lightweight, also make them incredibly easy to maintain. And, as Corsairs are seldom stored on the water, there is little need for everything from bottom coatings to anti-mildew sprays.
11. High re-sale — way past the time you'll start taking your Corsair's strength, endurance, dependability, fit and finish for granted—and believe that other boats must also be built as well because how could anyone settle for less?—you'll probably start seeing some new Corsair model and think about trading up. That's when you'll find out that the superior construction of your Corsair will enable you to sell it to someone else for not much less than you bought it for new.
12. The way they look and make you feel: fast, sleek and unstoppable.
