Peter Cole designed the Traditional 30' as the ideal cruiser/racer. Out on the water with the family, twilight racing or simply cruising to your favourite location. Having raced in the competitive Hobart fleet, then to participating in both scratch and twilight racing in Port Cygnet... 'King Billy' has done it all!
With a sleeping capacity of up to 6, Traditional 30's are a well thought-out, comfortable yacht - featuring a generous galley, separate Nav Station, full headroom head and a large cockpit with wheel steering and wireless controlled instruments. 'King Billy' is also well set up for short-handed sailing with auto helm and furling headsail. She's a joy to sail!
Yes, Traditional 30's are known for their sailing capabilities, with her added bulb keel for increased stability and higher pointing angle, as a result 'King Billy' is a regular and successful participant in Port Cygnet Sailing Club events. Accordingly, she is in excellent condition and maintained to a high standard, recently antifouled and has a current Insurance Survey available for those serious enquires.
Traditional 30's do not last long, please call Jeff on for further information, including previous survey - or mail Jeff at: gmail. Com
