The Santana 30, debuting in 1974, represents a pivotal era in the collaboration between W.D. Schock and the renowned naval architect Gary Mull. While often overshadowed by its younger, more aggressive sibling, the Santana 30/30, the original "Mull 30" was conceived as a highperformance IOR (International Offshore Rule) cruiserracer that prioritized speed and agility without sacrificing the rudimentary comforts required for weekend coastal cruising. Built in Corona, California, the Santana 30 was a direct response to the burgeoning market for 30foot racing yachts that could still serve a dual purpose for a young family. It reflects Mull’s signature design language from the 1970s: a clean, lowprofile coachroof, a moderate displacement hull, and the distinctive "pinched" ends characteristic of early IOR hull forms.
