This 1983 Express 30 is a Canadian-designed performance sailboat built around speed and seaworthiness. The hull combines a flaring bow with a deep fin keel and spade rudder for stability and competitive performance, characteristics that made her well-suited to club racing. She has remained in freshwater throughout her life.
The interior follows classic teak design with functional accommodations including two cabins, galley, and a single head. The layout is straightforward rather than heavily appointed—there is no air conditioning or refrigeration, though either could be added. A Yanmar diesel engine rated at 25 horsepower provides auxiliary power, with cruising speeds around 5 knots and a maximum speed of 7 knots.
Original Meissner winches, autopilot, depth sounder, and VHF radio are installed. Eight sails are included in varying stages of condition. The boat comes with its original cradle, canvas winter cover, main sail cover, and sail bags. An array of personal flotation devices is also included.
