The Halmatic 30 is a quintessential British "pocket cruiser," designed by John Sharp and introduced in 1979 as a response to the demand for a seaworthy, traditional longkeeled yacht that could be handled easily by a small crew. Emerging from the Portsmouth yard of Halmatic Ltd.—a firm already legendary for molding the hulls of prestigious brands like Camper & Nicholsons—the Halmatic 30 represented a move toward a proprietary model that prioritized heavyweather capability over racing metrics. Often described as a "little ship" rather than a mere boat, the model was produced until approximately 1986, with nearly 200 units launched. While Halmatic provided the highquality GRP hulls and decks, many units were completed by other yards or as highend ownercompletions, leading to a degree of variation in interior joinery and finish.
