Summary
The 1976 Cape Dory 30 Ketch is a classic boat designed by Carl Alberg and this boat is hull #2.
The Watermark II is a quality boat that is great for family day outings or cruising the coastline.
The full keel makes this a very stable boat that can handle a bit more wind. She is great for keeping a straight and steady line, due to the length and surface area in the water. This makes for a very comfortable ride. If, by chance you run aground the full keel offers a bit more forgiveness. Due to the spread of the load, you’re less likely to cause major damage.
The Watermark II was originally built with a worm gear steering, but was converted to tiller steering about 20 years ago.
She comes equipped with Icom M506 VHF Radio, Raymarine SP2000+, Furvno #HM195 Radar for electronics.
