The Fisher 30 MS (Motorsailer) stands as a definitive benchmark in the world of heavydisplacement cruising. Designed by the renowned duo of David Freeman and Gordon Wyatt, this 30foot doubleender was first introduced in the early 1970s and quickly became the backbone of the Fisher range. Built initially by Fairways Marine and later by Northshore Yachts, the vessel was conceived as a "goanywhere" boat for the North Sea and beyond, prioritizing safety, warmth, and structural integrity over raw racing speed. Its design is unapologetically derived from the rugged lines of traditional Baltic fishing boats, featuring a highvolume hull, a deepseated wheelhouse, and a distinctive canoe stern that provides exceptional buoyancy in following seas.
