About the LINDENBERG 30

LINDENBERG 30 derives from the original protype 'Wavelength'. Later became the WAVELENGTH 30.

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Lindenberg 30 is a rare, custom-built masthead sloop designed by Paul Lindenberg and constructed by Lindenberg Yachts (USA) between 1980 and 1983. With only 3 hulls built, this vessel represents a highly exclusive production run that combines the designer's signature attention to detail with a robust, displacement-heavy hull form.

Best for:
This boat is best suited for experienced coastal cruisers and bluewater adventurers who value a quiet, stable ride and are comfortable maintaining a rare, low-production vessel with limited aftermarket support.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 6900.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.1, the Lindenberg 30 exhibits strong offshore stability and seakeeping abilities suitable for protected coastal passages and cautious bluewater cruising.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Cal 30 and O'Day 302, which share similar beam and displacement characteristics, though the Lindenberg distinguishes itself with a much lower production volume and a more refined, custom finish.
