Well, I think I've found it. The Kinetic KC54 to me, is the gold standard in production performance cruising catamarans. From the forward cockpit and helm station, to the little things like the obvious quality of craftmanship, this boat is on another level...

This J160 "Pipe Dream" has an extensive sailing history to say the least. She's a proven no nonsense offshore racer cruiser. Here's an older article, written in 2009, with a little more about her history. Keep in mind she's been sailed and maintained a lot...

The ethos behind these very odd looking yachts is safety, simplicity, performance, and affordability. For example, what other 60 foot performance multihull could you DIY build to compare to similar sized multi-million dollar yachts, but for 1/10th of the c...

I hate standard bottom paint! In this video I removed the bottom paint on our 1991 Corsair F27 Trimaran and used two methods. I strictly sanded the main hull, and I used a chemical stripper on the amas. What did I think was the better method? Well, it's c...
Hunter yachts seem to garner a lot of hate from people that don't own them. Why is this? I personally think they fulfill their place in the market well. Hunters are affordable and comfortable coastal cruisers. Be sure to watch until the end for more discus...

Repairing a boat is always full of surprises. All you can hope for is that the job will take about as much time and and about as much work as you expected, but typically it will always take longer, be harder, and be more expensive.
In this video, I finis...
I recently came across this movie since we're currently refitting a 1991 Corsair F27 and I had to share it with you guys!
This is a movie about a group of Corsair F27 owners sailing in the 1989 Newport to Ensenada race, and then cruising Mexico afterwards...
In this video I continue the repair work on the cracking of the interior laminate of the main hull on our 1991 Corsair F27, Desperado. While prepping for glass, I found out just how nasty a previous "repair" made by the prior owner actually was.
For this ...
Chris White is mainly known as a performance catamaran designer, but this 44' Custom Explorer trimaran is truly something special. She's been put through the paces and she boasts a lot of room and good cruising potential for a performance trimaran. This pa...
In this video I start the major repair of the interior laminate of the main hull on our new to us 1991 Corsair F27, Desperado. I think you might be as surprised as I was at the extent of the damage.

When I toured the Cheoy Lee 53' motor sailor I thought that it was about as close to perfect as you were going to get. Needless to say I loved it for what it was, but this 63' version just takes everything that makes the 53' great and turns that up to 11. ...
We jumped on a neglected 1991 Corsair F-27 trimaran sailboat that "needed some TLC," but quickly found out that it had a hidden problem requiring major intervention.
Is she too far gone to rebuild? We don't think so, but what do you think?
