Carter 30
The Carter 30 is a 29.75ft masthead sloop designed by Richard (Dick) Carter and built in fiberglass by Northshore Yachts (UK) between 1972 and 1990.
300 units have been built.
The Carter 30 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
