The 880 trimaran from Corsair Marine has been developed for the modern sailor; adventurous and versatile. With full standing headroom, enclosed heads and the ability to sleep five she is destined to become the next “peoples boat”.
The mission of the Corsair 880 is to provide sailors of all skill levels the opportunity to sail an effortlessly fast performance sailboat whilst being completely safe and comfortable.
Helming from the protection and comfort of the padded cockpit seats is made possible due to the low heel and stable sailing provided by high volume ama design and a huge unfolded beam.
A 13.5m carbon rig, laminate sails offered on the Sport model, combined with the impressive low-rocker hull design deliver class leading performance.
“The 880 has the possibility to be a fantastic boat for the masses. We have identified that to succeed with this we must offer more than a great looking product, we must deliver a complete service, catering to the needs of each and every customer,” said Shane Grover from Corsair Marine, Sales & Marketing Manager.

“The options offering on the 880 will be far more complete, allowing customers and dealers to build a boat catered to their needs. As every customer has his/her own personality so shall each boat. We aim to make this process quite structured and painless in order to deliver a seamless and easy service to our customers.
“This does not mean we will build custom boats – it does however mean we will think carefully about our customers personas and deliver standardised solutions to meet the broader market.
“We will have sail packages to suit all kinds of sailors as well as introducing new options such as AC, electronics, trailers and heated water to cater to a wider range of people.”
This 29 foot trimaran offers all the possibilities of much larger boats in an easy to trailer lightweight package. The combination of performance, comfort and trailer-ability provides unlimited options for cruisers and racers alike.
Available in a performance package with 13.5-metre carbon wing mast and racing sails or in a comfortable cruising package with creature comforts such as hot water and air conditioning.
The 880 sleeps up to 5 people, offers a galley and enclosed head with shower, a saloon with full standing headroom and all of that comes in a folding, trailerable package well below the trailering weight limit of most passenger cars. With a simple setup allowing for launching in well under an hour this truly is a boat offering adventures across continents
