Enjoy Corsair 970 Performance
in Comfort…

The combination of performance from the award-winning Corsair C31 and the spacious comfort of the Corsair 37! The new Cruze 970 is an exciting new model with great sailing pedigree and packed with fantastic new features as the latest model from the design team at Corsair Marine.

Prior to the development of the 32ft Cruze 970, over 300 C31s were delivered to owners all around the world making this model one of the most successful trimarans in the world. The C31 was chosen for its great sailing qualities & rugged construction for a number of epic adventures in the Arctic including an incredible voyage through the notorious North West and East West Passages in a single season. However, most were used for cruising and racing.

Corsair 970

The Corsair Cruze 970 is an evolution of the C31 popular design but with greater comfort and amenities similar to that found on the larger C37.  The Corsair Cruze 970 is slightly longer than the C31, and the deck has been raised, creating approximately 15 percent additional inside space.  Most importantly, there is a full-standing headroom in the saloon area.

The saloon area is finished with a clean, white GRP liner. The galley is more extensive, with additional drawers and ample storage. The forward and aft bunks are now longer and wider, giving the crew a more generous accommodation area. The 970 also caters for privacy with a fully enclosed head.

The more functional cockpit has been extended and an aft deck mainsheet track facilitates free movement within the cockpit. The raised, side seating increases both comfort and visibility (a great design feature taken from the highly successful C37).

Easy to Handle

For sailing performance, the high volume floats have been designed with additional buoyancy giving the Corsair Cruze 970 greater stability and comfort for all her passengers.

Watch the video below the Corsair Cruze 970 sails up to 19.8 knots, with plenty of buoyancy in the floats! The video has good information in it, BUT you may want to turn the sound down because of the horribly annoying music!

As always, Corsair’s trusted folding system, proven in over 2,000 Corsairs ensures that road trailering remains easy. The retractable dagger-board and rudder enable the boat to be floated in just inches of water or pushed up onto the beach when enjoying cruising adventures with family and friends.

The Corsair Cruze 970 comes standard with a large number of “options” including a roller furling jib and mainsail, a two-burner propane stove, a 39-gallon freshwater tank, a washbasin with pull-out shower attachment, a floor drain with sump pump, and a marine head with a 13-gallon holding tank. Several other options can be specified when ordering a Cruze 970 such as refrigeration, autopilot etc.

Richard Allen held my hand and managed the buying process at every step of this purchase. Richard has a calm smooth character. This business style made my anxieties of this process come down to a
very comfortable level.

After I actually owned my Corsair 970, Richard went above and beyond to help me sail it from Long Beach to San Diego, where it’s now being secured for shipment to my final destination in the Midwest.
I literally felt as if Richard and I
were old friends on a spectacular vacation!
