Cs 30
Description
The CS 30 is a Canadian coastal cruiser-racer sailboat designed by Tony Castro and introduced in 1984 by CS Yachts (Canadian Sailcraft) in Brampton, Ontario. Production ran until 1990, with around 500 units built, making it the most popular model in CS's lineup (over 90 sold in the first year alone). Known for its IOR-influenced hull (fine entry, flat underbody, wide transom), it's a slippery performer with a comfortable interior, blending speed and stability for club racing or family cruising. Variants include standard fin keel (5'6" draft), shoal fin (4'3"), and wing keel (4'6").
