Gs 30

Designed by the respected team of Graham & Schlageter and first launched in 1979, this 30-footer represents a thoughtful approach to coastal cruising and weekend sailing. The wood and fiberglass construction reflects the transitional building methods of its era, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern materials for durability and performance. With a moderate displacement of 5,650 pounds and a substantial 5.30-foot draft, the Gs 30 offers good stability and tracking ability. The fin keel with spade rudder configuration provides responsive handling while maintaining reasonable performance under sail. Her fractional sloop rig carries 417 square feet of sail area, delivering a sail area-to-displacement ratio that favors comfortable cruising over racing performance. The boat's 17.17 comfort ratio suggests she'll provide a relatively stable platform in typical coastal conditions, while the 2.15 capsize screening value indicates reasonable stability for protected waters and moderate offshore passages. Her 23-foot waterline length enables a theoretical hull speed of 6.43 knots, making her well-suited for relaxed coastal cruising and harbor sailing. The Gs 30 appeals to sailors seeking a traditional feel with manageable size, ideal for couples or small families exploring coastal waters with occasional forays into more challenging conditions.
