The Farrier F-24, also called the Corsair F-24, is an American trailerable trimaran that was designed by Ian Farrier as a racer-cruiser and first built in 1991.[1][2][3][4]

The Farrier F-24 design was developed into the Corsair 24 Mark II, also called the F-24 Mark II, in 1994, and the F-24 Sport Cruiser in 1994.[1][2][5][6][7][8]

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][9][10]

Design

The Farrier F-24 is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with a rotating mast. The hull and outriggers have nearly plumb stems and reverse transoms. The hull has 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]

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