The Friendship 30 is a quintessential Dutch cruiser, hailing from the prolific Jachtbouw Meijer yard in Balk, Netherlands. Primarily recognized in two distinct iterations—the racingpedigree "Pion" (designed by Van de Stadt) and the later dedicated cruiser models—the 30foot platform represents a balance of North Sea durability and refined GRP construction. These vessels were mainstay sightings on the IJsselmeer and the Wadden Sea throughout the 1980s and 1990s, offering a step up in volume and seaworthiness from the yard's smaller siblings like the ubiquitous Friendship 22 and 26.
