Halvorsen 30 – KARA now Exclusively for Sale with DBY Boat Sales
Designed by Halvorsen and launched in 1970, this rare Halvorsen 30 KARA is a solidly built 30ft GRP coastal cruiser with true bluewater capability. Halvorsen 30s are a rare find, and this one presents an excellent opportunity for sailors looking to explore inshore, coastal, or offshore waters in comfort and style.
With a moderate 1.8m draft, she’s ideal for navigating shallow coastal areas, bar crossings, and tucked-away inlets where deeper-draft yachts can’t venture.
Despite her compact size, KARA offers impressive space both inside and out. The large cockpit extends aft with a fold-up stainless steel swim platform, enhancing her usability for cruising and relaxing at anchor. Below deck, the interior is bright, spacious, and welcoming—perfect for entertaining or extended stays aboard.
She’s powered by a reliable, low-hour Beta 25hp shaft-driven diesel, professionally maintained and ready for adventure.
Equipped with modern electronics, an easy-to-manage sail plan, and a solid sail wardrobe, KARA is perfectly set up for shorthanded sailing and is ready to take you wherever the wind blows.
