Description

Fisher 30 for sale lying Darthaven Marina, River Dart, Dartmouth, with Devon Boat Sales. The Fisher 30 is a very well built motorsailer. Constructed on a heavy-displacement fiberglass hull in the classic North Sea trawler style, the vessel features a distinctive canoe stern and an enclosed amidships wheelhouse, making it a capable all-weather pocket cruiser. Drawing inspiration from traditional Scottish fishing boats, the Fisher 30 prioritizes seaworthiness, directional stability, and confident heavy-weather performance over high-speed planing. Its canoe stern helps reduce pounding and slapping in following seas, while the sturdy wheelhouse—with its raked windows and panoramic visibility—offers excellent protection and comfort in all conditions. This example has had some lovely upgrades during its curent ownership, including new engine in 2019 and has only done 148 since and has been profesionally maintained.
