The Halmatic 30 is a well-regarded cruiser that combines solid British construction with reassuring sea-keeping ability, making her an ideal choice for coastal cruising and passage making alike. Designed with practicality and comfort in mind, she offers a spacious interior for her size and age along with dependable sailing performance. This particular boat appears to be ready to sail away by her new owner, weather stepping up into a capable family cruiser or seeking a proven and affordable offshore passage maker.
