The 2012 US Corsair Nationals and Rendezvous is designed to recognise, celebrate and thank all those people who have supported Corsair Marine over the years. By moving it around the country, it will open it up to more Corsair owners which is entirely consistent with Corsair's aim of creating further choices; closer families and friends.

On 16 September 2011, this website (Corsair) announced that the 2012 US Corsair Nationals & Rendezvous (will be) hosted by the Screwpile Regatta from 15-17 July at Solomons, Maryland in the USA. Since then, there seems to have been some confusion on the internet forums as to the eligibility of trimarans and the merits of hosting such an event.

Corsair Marine has stated that the Corsair Nationals and Rendezvous is open to all Corsair-built trimarans that wish to race or cruise. Given Corsair Marine was established back in 1984, it is not surprising that the list of Corsair-built trimarans is quite extensive.

In the interest of safety and like racing PHRF, One Designs etc the Corsair classes will race on their own race circle
