hello,
i have recently started crewing on a Beneteau First 30 half-tonner built 1980 (or about that time).
the owner has been rebuilding the boat (interiors etc) and we''ll start racing it soon on club races etc.
have checked the beneteau web site but the model is not even listed (too old probably).
we would be gratefull to hear from anyone that has experience with this boat, opinions etc about its behaviour, rigging guides etc. Is it a good boat after all? what reputation did it have in its days?
Moreover, if any of you has pollar diagrams, tunning guides, manuals, plans or whatever else documentation please let me know. i am willing to discuss paying for any such documents + your time for scanning etc.
thank you for your help
regards,
ben
