The Corsair 880 is a modern, lightweight cruising sloop designed by an unknown designer and built by Corsair Marine, with production records indicating a build year of 2019. With a displacement of 3660.0 lb and a LOA of 28.87 ft, it features a fractional sloop rig with a rotating spar and a variable keel configuration.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal cruisers and weekend sailors who prioritize ease of single-handed handling and high performance over heavy offshore protection, given its light displacement and fractional rig.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 5.8 and a high sail area/displacement ratio of 37.45, the boat is designed for performance rather than heavy offshore stability, making it suitable for protected coastal waters but requiring caution in open ocean conditions.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Beneteau First 28 and the J/28, as they share similar fractional sloop rigs, light displacement characteristics, and a focus on performance-oriented coastal cruising.
