This week we’re excited to sail the new Corsair 880 Sport in Pensacola, Florida. The final destination for this Corsair 880 Sport will be near Austin, Texas. We’re lucky the weather has been perfect for commissioning. Out of the box the 880 is BIG!
Our support team is AWESOME to work with at Advanced Yachtworks, Zern Rigging, Windcraft, Legendary Motors and Pensacola Shipyard. These trimarans don’t come out of the container ready to sail… there are many days of commissioning work to be done and 180 Marine has a great network ensuring smooth outcomes. As a Corsair trimaran expert Richard Allen has over 25 years of experience sailing and optimizing these amazing trimarans. Having state of the art equipment at the boatyard makes the job go smoother ie: a Marine Travel Lift with a 220,000 lb. capacity and a 14-ton mobile crane and a 4000 lb. 21’ long forklift boom make short work of it in capable hands.
180 Marine has many Corsair 880’s arriving throughout the U.S. in 2021 so what a great way to start the new year! Some will arrive via Pensacola, Florida and some will arrive via Los Angeles, California. We work hard to find the right fit for your sailing needs, and customize what's available until it's perfect for you. More Corsair owners have chosen 180 Marine this year than any other source.
We want to share the commissioning experience with you as the Corsair 880s arrive from afar. Enjoy these detailed images of the Pensacola delivery and first sail.
