Many people come looking for the original lines, as drawn by Carl Alberg, or the
construction drawings from Whitby Boat Works. I'm sorry to say that I've never been about to find these. The Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA has the plans for many Alberg designs, but apparently not the A30. I suspect those plans are forever lost.
These late Bob Johns, who owned Wind Call, #397, provided these higher resolution scans of the
sailplan (149k),
the
hull plan (301k), and
the
hull layout (992k)
from page 3 of the Whitby brochure
Wes Gardner, owner of Griffin's Faith, #196, provided his trace of the boat profile in
dwg (26k),
pdf (5k), and
png (331K)
formats.

Cruising the Chesapeake: A Gunkholer's Guide 4th Edition
My favorite Chesapeake Bay guidebook. While it mentions marinas, it
concentrates on anchorages—the kind of places I prefer to spend
my time. And in addition to listing shore facilities, it rates each
location for Beauty/Interest and Protection. This is the guide you need
to really cruise the Chesapeake Bay—a smorgasbord of small creeks
and coves.
