The new Dash model, called the Dash Mk II is an improved version of the highly successful Dash with increased volume in the V-berth area and a number of other improvements to the cabin. Call Don if you'd like to see a Dash Mk II.

2013 Corsair Nationals

The 2013 Corsair Nationals were held in June on San Francisco Bay. Don teamed up with Gulf Coast Corsair Sprint owner and racer Bob Hodges and Elise Reade on a borrowed Corsair Dash. Seven races were held over three days in winds typically around 12-20 knots, making for some very exciting spinnaker legs (click here and here to view photos). The final race was a "tour of the bay" upwind past Alcatraz into the middle of the Golden Gate wind funnel where the fleet saw winds close to 30 knots, and then a spinnaker run back to the south bay. First place overall in the 20 boat fleet went to Florida sailor Phil Styne on a Sprint 750 Mk II, which was towed across the country from Stuart FL for the event. Don’s team on "Blue Bayou" came in second in class and second overall. Full results can be viewed by clicking on this link .
