Fisksatra Varv S 30 - Vendido

The S30 derives from the Skerry Cruisers; long narrow wooden boats dating from the early 20th century and brought up to date with this fibreglass construction design in 1969; the first boat tested in 1971. This version benefits from the further modernisation brought in 1978 intended to make the class more comfortable to sail as a family boat and by running halyards and trim lines back to the cockpit. The boat has a comprehensive equipment spec enabling fine tuning for optimum race performance, while the self tacking jib for example eases her handling for the less demanding needs of family cruising.

The hull and deck/superstructure are built as separate one piece GRP mouldings with bonded in internal stiffening structures. The keelson is reinforced with generous floors. The fin keel is incorporated in the hull moulding with lead ballast bolted on to the bottom with stainless steel fastenings. The rudder is GRP with through hull shaft
