Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Endeavour 30 is a rare Australian-built cruising sloop designed by Graham Tilley/Marine Reasearch pty. and constructed by Reg Gardner - Endeavour Yachts (AUS). With only 30 hulls built in 1973, this model represents a limited production run of a classic 30.5 ft LOA vessel.

Best for:
This boat suits coastal cruisers and weekend sailors seeking a manageable, classic masthead sloop with a comfortable interior layout. Its moderate displacement and beam make it well-suited for protected waters and short offshore passages rather than heavy ocean racing.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 7200.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.11, the Endeavour 30 offers moderate offshore stability suitable for coastal and nearshore cruising. Its fin keel and masthead sloop rig provide adequate performance for short offshore passages, though its age and limited build count suggest careful evaluation for serious bluewater use.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Cal 30 and O'Day 30, which share similar dimensions and eras of production. These vessels offer similar cruising comfort and sail plans, making them direct competitors for buyers seeking a 30-foot classic cruiser.
