1985 Carter 309m

Carter 30, 9.1 m monohull sailboat designed by Dick Carter and built by Northshore Yachts in 1985.

This IOR-derived cruiser was from the prolific and innovative board of American Dick Carter. Northshore Yachts built the first batch as racers, with a large cockpit and bigger sailplan, but when racing success dried up, the company produced a second version with a smaller cockpit, less sail area and a fully-fitted interior with a conventional but effective five-berth layout. In this format she was well built and finished, and made a good fast cruiser with excellent handling.
