At a mellow 3500 rpm, we cruised at 36 to 37 mph. With the throttle mashed to the dash we darted up to 55 mph. Vibrations, hollow drumming sounds, and rattles are essentially non-existent, and the hull comes down with a solid ker-chunk! Speaking of top speed, our test boat was powered with a 5.7-liter 350 Mag coupled to a Bravo III stern drive, and this package provided red-hot performance.

During our test I managed to hit a series of three-foot boat wakes at top speed when re-entering the water after aerial maneuvers, the Corsair feels rock-solid. The result of such construction techniques becomes clear when you pass out of the no-wake zone, nail the throttle, and start hopping waves. Solid-teak decking, teak accents, beefy stainless-steel fittings, and clever design details show a no-compromise build mentality.
Screws are chrome-plated to extend their lifetime, upholstery is double-stitched, and electrical connections are made with environmentally-sealed Deutsch connectors. These majestic looks and unique details rest upon a frame that’s constructed of foam-filled fiberglass stringers, which are bonded to the hull with Weld-On adhesive. Gauges and the throttle are custom-designed for Chris-Craft the ski-tow pylon is a pop-up windshield framing is beefy stainless-steel hatches are RTM-molded so they’re finished on both sides and the cabin entry hatch opens with gas-assist struts that do all of the work for you. They’re polished stainless-steel, sure, but they’re also twice as thick as those you’ll find on this boat’s competitors. And this glowing woodsy look doesn’t come from a cheap veneer or a faux teak-this is the real stuff, every inch of it solid-planked decking that’s epoxied in place. Even the step from the cockpit to the swim platform, hidden beneath a removable seat cushion, is covered in sole-gripping teak. The boat’s look is magnificent, with extensive, eye-warming teak decking covering the bow and swim platform. This boat may be the smallest in the Corsair line, but it’s big when it comes to style and strength.
