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.

Boatowners Mechanical And Electrical Manual
by Nigel Calder
An in-depth reference to almost every essential system
found on a sailboat. Calder has well-considered strategies for everything.
Granted, there are good alternatives to some of his approaches, but he
won't lead you astray. This is a book you can trust. Now expanded in
its second edition.
