The Us 30 is a 29.92ft masthead sloop designed by Douglas Peterson / Daryl Watson and built in fiberglass by Bayliner (Buccaneer/US Yachts) between 1979 and 1983.
The Us 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 day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
