Hi all, just putting the word out that i am looking for a Corsair if anyone has one for sale, or knows of anyone that is looking to sell or will sell.
Cheers!
Hi if you contact Budgewoi sailing NSW club,they still race these great boats. They will be able to ster you to a boat. sorry dont have the number.
There is also a Corsair Assoc web site.Good luck
The Navy used to sail them as their training boats before going to Tasers. I bet there are heaps in WA in some defence storage shed
Cheers carpediem+ Jethrow, i have tried searching a few WA based clubs but haven't had any luck as yet, my father in law raced them as a young lad at Mackay, he tells me they were quite popular in their day, and still are, however im also told that they were never as popular in WA for some reason? Cheers!
hi There is a gentelman called Ashely Chapman (97+yrs) at budgewoi sailing club still sailing them every Sunday. We should all be so lucky. It is worth a call just to talk to him. He is a real old man of the sea. there is nothing about Corsair he doesn't know. The just had their nationals a Airley beach.
Ashley Chapman (02)43909295, will be able to put you in touch with current Corsair asscn members in the west, also try the Naval Cadets in WA, I am fairly sure they are still using Corsairs for sail training. Good hunting. Darcy.
Thanks mate, but i saw that one, looks great but its in Brizzy unfortunately.
Cheers
