Production edit

The design was built by Seidelmann Yachts in the United States, starting in 1977, but it is now out of production.[1][2][6][7]

Design edit

The Seidelmann 30-T is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig; a raked stem; a raised counter, reverse transom; an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or optional shoal draft keel. It displaces 8,800 lb (3,992 kg) and carries 3,600 lb (1,633 kg) of ballast.[1][2]

The boat has a draft of 5.42 ft (1.65 m) with the standard keel and 4.17 ft (1.27 m) with the optional shoal draft keel.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 15 hp (11 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 12 U.S. gallons (45 L; 10.0 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 30 U.S. gallons (110 L; 25 imp gal).[1][2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for five people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a double fold-out straight settee berth in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a quarter berth on the port side. The galley is located on the starboard side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove, an icebox and a sink. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the both sides and includes a sink. Cabin headroom is 77 in (196 cm).[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of 6.57 kn (12.17 km/h).[2]
