The Mustang 30 is a high-performance 9-meter cruiser-racer that carved out a reputation as a "pocket rocket" in the competitive Solent sailing scene. Designed by the acclaimed naval architect Paul Handley—renowned for modern classics like the RS Feva and RS Tera—the Mustang 30 was produced by Harley Race Boats in Cowes, Isle of Wight, between 1988 and 1998. With roughly 30 units constructed, it remains a rare and sought-after vessel for sailors who prioritize sailing dynamics over dockside amenities. The boat was originally conceived as the first yacht designed specifically for the CHS rule (the predecessor to IRC), and its enduring success in events like the Azores and Back (AZAB) and the Round the Island Race underscores its pedigree. According to editorial analysis from Afloat Magazine, the Mustang 30 was distinguished by its almost "unfashionably narrow" hull for the era, a design choice that ensures the boat remains balanced and responsive even when heavily pressed.
