The Grampian 30 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a reverse transom and an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel. It may be fitted with a fixed fin keel or, optionally a centreboard and stub keel. It displaces Шаблон:Convert and carries Шаблон:Convert of ballast.[1]

The boat has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the standard keel fitted. The centreboard version has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the centreboard extended and Шаблон:Convert with it retracted, allowing ground transportation on a trailer.[1]

A tall mast version was also produced that has a mast about Шаблон:Convert higher.[1]

The boat is fitted with a Universal Atomic 4 gasoline engine. The fuel tank holds Шаблон:Convert and the fresh water tank has a capacity of Шаблон:Convert.[1]

The centreboard version has a PHRF racing average handicap of 201 with a high of 180 and low of 216. The tall mast model has a PHRF racing average handicap of 195 with a high of 186 and low of 207. All models have hull speeds of Шаблон:Convert.[4][5][6]

Operational history

A Grampian 30 was run aground off Cape Hatteras in a severe storm. The crew remained on board while the boat was laid on its side for four hours as they had no escape in the storm. After the storm had abated and the tide went out, the boat was left high and dry. When the tide came back in the boat was floated off the shore. Back in port the only damage found was bent keel bolts.[7]

In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "Regardless of their size category, the various Grampian models have one thing in common - they offer a lot of boat for relatively little money... Some people find that it isn't the sleekest looking sailboat, and that its appearance may be a little dated, but the Grampian 30 is very much a modern 30 foot production fiberglass sailboat of the 1970s. While it has been suggested that this model doesn't quite live up to the Grampian 26's reputation as a good sailing boat, it does have a nice interior layout with loads of room."[8]
