The
Bermuda 30 is a boat that commands instant admiration from "old salts" and
"newcomers" alike. You will marvel at the wealth of detail thought that has gone
into her. An adaptation of the well-known Herrshoff H-28 offshore ketch, she is a true
family boat with plenty of room and livability both above and below. A
single-hander
if need be, she's to be reckoned with in any race.
Although the Bermuda 30 slides through the water
effortlessly, she is built also for cruising enjoyment. Her roomy forward and main cabins,
storage areas, toilet room and galley are brightly lighted and well aired, and a
six-footer can roam erect throughout her spacious interior without bumping his head. As
many as ten adults can be accommodated in the cockpit of the Bermuda 30. She sleeps four.
Optional equipment is available as desired, including sloop rig and Diesel engine.
Fiberglass Model
Reinforced Plastics

available for the Bermuda 30 to take the place of teak hull, while decks, cabin sides and
interior remain in teakwood |
