The listed weight of the 30-1 on the spec sheets is 8000#. I doubt there was ever one that light. The ones which have been weighed seem to hover around 9000. After looking at Rich’s #1, I can see a lot of differences, such as his chainplate system. And, after seeing pictures of other boats – mine has the teak and holly floor throughout, a sump pump for the shower, pressure water, hot water heater, two batteries, and the three burner propane stove/oven which were accessories.
>From some earlier comments by owners, I don’t think the raising of the boom >did much for performance, but it did relieve a lot of headaches. And I agree with Michael, the boat does quite well in 15 knots and above.

The earlier models tended to be heavier, possibly due to things like the water tanks being made out of fiberglass versus the later models having plastic tanks. The rudder design changed and the boom was raised 1'. I have pictures of 30-1s side by side with obvious differences in the spreader height. At the club haul out the crane measures the boat weights. While not striped out but somewhat equally emptied the 30-1s can be as much as 500 lbs difference in weight to each other.

San Francisco verses San Diego for example.

PHRF Chesapeake has done some, but not often. Looking around the country, the 30-1, from hull number 1 (on the Chesapeake) to hull numbers over 600 seem to have the same 174 handicap (mine is number 593 and is 174 also). There may be exceptions, but I would doubt that Randy’s boat (assuming it has not been modified in major ways) would prompt a review. I’m not sure what one would do to a 30-1 to increase performance unless you cut a bunch of weight off the keel – and that would decrease it’s performance in heavy weather. At the Chesapeake rendezvous a couple months ago, I got to look at Rick’s number 1 and it is very similar to my 593, only differing is the area of chainplate attachments and some cabinet doors.
