The design was built in four versions by a number of different builders, including Älvdalsplast AB,[8] Shipman Sweden AB and Albin Marine (all in Sweden), Nautic Saintonge[9] in France, Yamaha Corporation in Japan and the Solna Corporation[10] in the US. Production ceased in 1982, with about 1,000 boats of all marks built.[2][3][4][5][11][12][13][14]
Sailboatdata.com notes, "the Scampi was Peter Norlin's first yacht design. It's hard to think of a case where the first effort of any designer achieved similar success."[2]
The Scampi 30 was designed as an IOR Half Ton class boat.[15]
The Scampi 30 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. All versions have masthead sloop rigs with aluminum spars, deck-stepped masts, wire standing rigging and a single set of unswept spreaders. The hulls all have raked stems; raised counter, reverse transoms; skeg-mounted rudders controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keels. All models displace 7,275 lb (3,300 kg) and carry 2,778 lb (1,260 kg) of ballast.[2][3][4][5]
All versions have a draft of 5.41 ft (1.65 m) with the standard keel.[2][3][4][5]
The design has sleeping accommodation for five people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, two straight settees in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a single quarter berth on the port side. The galley is located on the starboard side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a three-burner stove and a sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the port side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side.[2][5]
All models have hull speeds of 6.42 kn (11.89 km/h).[5]
The boat is supported by an active class club based in Sweden, that organizes racing events, the Scampiförbundet (English: The Scampi Association).[20]
