Capo 30
Description
The Capo 30, also known as the Schumacher 30, is a 30-foot monohull sailboat designed by Carl Schumacher and built by Westerly Marine (US) between 1984 and 1985, with only 8 units produced. It was designed to compete under the MORC (Midget Ocean Racing Club) rule and is considered a high-performance racing boat, though it’s better suited for coastal cruising due to its stability and capsizing characteristics.

Disclaimer. Boats are not all the same -- even when produced in the same factory of the same model. Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them. You should take the same precautions, especially when the data is not from Sailrite.
