That's the reason I"ve mentioned the Telstar and the Dragonfly
trimarans. These two are more geared for cruising than are the
Corsairs, which really appear to be racing oriented.

Why do you think that they're a bit more safe than a monohull of
comparable capacity?

If you like spartan, as in camping with about the same equipment &
comfort you would have on the trail with everything toted on your back,
only with a solid roof over your head, then yeah they're great. If
you're decadent and want a place to stand up while you put on your
pants, or a supply of cold beverages, then too bad.

As ocean sailers, they're probably a bit more safe than a monohull of
comparable capacity, and much faster. The biggest issue is the skill of
the skipper, and 2nd to that is how well outfitted.

If you're trailering, be prepared to spend a lot longer rigging up than
anybody likes to admit.
