Been following the development of the boat with great interest scince its inception.
It is a rocketship in all conditions, but especially in the lower end of the wind range.
It sems expensive, relative to a Corsair 31 for what you get, BUT speed and technology have their price.
R33-trailer, spin, motor, screecher=~157K More in line with the Corsair 31's than the smaller 24 & 28.
C31 1D-~156K + 20K for all sails (NOT AS FAST a little more comfortable-less set up time
C31Aft ****~139K + ~7-8K for screacher + Spin
C31 Center ****~141K+~7-8K for screacher + Spin
Cosairs come w/trailer & motor
None of the above include shipping &/or commissioning
Cosair is a more cruzy boat & I think the 1D is a waste of time & $. If you wan't a new boat use the Reynolds approach and design & Build a much faster boat from scratch.
Th R33 will be an awesome boat for the speed heads & we'll see if it can generate enough interes to start a class. Until then the are going to Kick [email]A@#[/email] in Mutihull Open class!
Mike, What's it rate??
Any bias sensed is cuz I am a C31 Owner.
