There use to be several on the race circut back in the early 1980's. One of the more successful boats was "Tight Rope". I think they were reffered to as a 30' . Other race boats were "Boogie Bear" and "Big Green Machine". They were great rough water boats. There were a few 40' Corsa raceboats, "Copper Kettle" and "Challange". Don't know anything else about their history.
An old 30' is/was sitting behind a car dealership in Brick NJ, don't know if it is/was for sale.

Hello Robert,
"Cocktails" was a Corsa also. Pretty fast rough water boat.
at one time had some paperwork on them. Sat in one at the Miami Boat show in the mid 70s.and talked to the owner of the company,, he raced Cocktails at the time

Thank you
jim

Tom Murphy owned Cocktails.. M-class boat. He sold it to a guy in Jersey or NY he named it Triton. Roger Munn throttled Triton. It then wound up in Pompano Beach Fl & renamed
" Yuck Fou ". Then it sat for years outside in the Florida weather.

Here are photos of my uncles old 30' Corsa. It ran on the great lakes in the mid-late 70's. Great rough water boats.
