History & Construction

GRP hull deck and superstructure
Twin keel
Saildrive with protection fin
Skeg Hung Rudder
Professionally maintained in current ownership including regular hull polishing, antifouling and engine service.
The LM30 model was designed by Bent Juuls Andersen who designed all LM models and was built in Denmark by LM Glasfiber A/S from 1980 until around 1990.

In 1990, LM ceased production of boats to concentrate on making GRP blades for large wind turbines, in which field they are now the largest company worldwide.
The LM30 moulds were moved to England in the early 1990's where production continued as the Scanyachts LM30 and later LM32 (this being based on the same hull mould, and is virtually identical).

LM Glasfiber were always capable of producing excellent mouldings and this has proved the test of time when one looks at 'Lone Star'.
