Overview
About this vessel
Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, this 1976 Cape Dory 30 Ketch is a rare opportunity to own one of Carl Alberg's most admired cruising designs. Timeless New England craftsmanship, dependable modern upgrades, and a freshly painted hull make her a standout in any harbor.
Powered by a newer freshwater-cooled 18 HP Universal diesel with a three-blade propeller, she offers reliable, economical performance. Her legendary full-keel design delivers excellent tracking, confidence, and comfort underway.
The classic ketch rig provides exceptional balance and versatility, with an excellent mainsail, roller furling headsail, and covers for both the mainsail and mizzen. Premium self-tailing winches make sail handling easy whether sailing solo or with crew.
Above deck, you'll find an unusually spacious cockpit with seating for up to eight, dependable worm-gear steering, heavy-duty bronze hardware, ten bronze opening ports, two opening skylights, and beautiful teak trim that gives the yacht her unmistakable character.
Below, the warm handcrafted teak interior is complemented by new cushions throughout, abundant storage, and the solid construction Cape Dory is known for. The exceptionally thick fiberglass hull is sound throughout with no soft decks.
Whether you're seeking a capable coastal cruiser, a weekend getaway, or a yacht that turns heads in every harbor, this Cape Dory delivers classic elegance with the kind of dependable upgrades that are increasingly hard to find.
