It was a beautiful weekend on Canyon Lake and it was very hot!
Fortunately, the wind picked up every afternoon for us.
Canyon Lake, Texas, is recognized as “The Jewel” of the Texas Hill Country. Its location is on the Guadalupe River.
Owner JT Cody, of "KA ORA" was extremely gracious to host us this weekend and another couple who flew in from California to experience his Corsair 970. If you're wondering what's the meaning behind the boat name "KA ORA" here is an explanation...the name "KA ORA", is derived from the Maori language, which means “I Live.” Live, to dream, to take chances, and
be proud of who you are.
Saling with 6 onboard was comfortable for all. The more functional cockpit is 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 is taken from the highly successful C37).
For sailing performance, the high volume floats have been designed with additional buoyancy giving the Cruze 970 greater stability and comfort for all her passengers.
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 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 fresh water 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.
