Few know as much about trimarans as the team at 180 Marine, having raced these super fun and competitive multihulls for the past 25 years. We have Dragonfly Trimaran and Corsair Trimaran demo locations across the country. We can get you connected with the perfect trimaran that you’re interested in seeing at a location that’s convenient for you.
Additionally, 180 Marine trains new owners to ensure they understand their new trimaran inside and out. This includes on-water training to familiarize owners with the handling and sailing techniques specific to high-performance trimarans.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, “Wow! what a ride!” - Hunter S. Thompson

It all began with the lack of a serious, modern, fast 33ft trimaran on the market.
Thomas was looking for a modern, light, and high-quality cruiser racer trimaran that could participate in some serious offshore racing and yet provide a great platform to explore and sail for pleasure.

Experience Luxury Sailing on a Dragonfly 28
Fun for cruising and racing
Dragonfly Trimaran 28 is a fantastic boat for cruising with family and friends. There is plenty of deck space due to the two large trampolines, upright sailing, and huge stability. Easy to helm, even a kid can helm the boat as the tiller is always in full balance. You don’t need a big crew for racing, and often the boats are sailed singlehanded.
Dragonfly Trimaran Demo Sails in the U.S.
Dragonfly has several locations nationwide where you can try out a Dragonfly trimaran. If you value foldable/trailerable performance over the finish, then a Corsair may be a good choice. But, if you value foldable/trailerable refinement over pure performance then a Dragonfly is the way to go.
Some owners have agreed to show and demo their Dragonfly trimaran. This is a great way to get first-hand information from an owner about the Dragonfly experience.
180 Marine is an authorized dealer for Dragonfly Trimarans, Europe’s most popular design of sporty, comfortable sailing trimarans. Dragonfly has over 30 years of experience building high-quality multihulls, which have been exported worldwide. Quorning Boats in Denmark designed and constructed these award-winning trimarans, a family-owned business established in 1967.

Corsair Trimaran Training Clinics from 180 Marine
Our Trimaran Sailing Clinics are designed to provide the essential foundations of sailing skills on a Corsair trimaran. Learn how to sail a Corsair much better or sample what Corsair trimarans are like to sail. Participants gain extensive hands-on experience, building the necessary sailing skills and knowledge.
Our gracious Corsair trimaran owners have agreed to help build the trimaran community by allowing us to use their boats for demos and training. Our demos and training clinics are held in Long Beach, CA, a great location for predictable wind conditions.
180 Marine offers three options to experience a Corsair 760 or the Corsair 880 Standard and Corsair 880 Sport.
Corsair 880, “Boat of the Year”
“The Corsair 880 is cool, cool, cool. Comfortable canvas bench seats. A nice little interior with all the basics for pleasant camping-style cruises. A rotating carbon-fiber spar. A tiller with an extension, and the traveler and mainsheet right at hand. Sails up, daggerboard down. As good as it gets.
We tacked upwind for a while to say we did, got some numbers, and then the real fun commenced. First, bye-bye jib; hello Code Zero. Welcome to the realm of double-digit boat speeds, which always feel faster when you’re reaching on a screamer under 30 feet. Greetings, sailing world, indeed.
We swapped the helm back and forth and took snapshots of one another. Who had the biggest smile? It was a tie. Then the kite went up for the run back to the dock. Heaven on Buzzard’s Bay.
There wasn’t another boat around, and for that matter, there wasn’t another boat in the competition that matched up with the Corsair. But you can be sure as heck we were still going to name it the year’s Best Sportboat. Which we could. So we did.
