The Olson 30 is the product of George Olson's inspiration to build an ultra light rocket, designed to excel in light and heavy conditions, and to scream downwind. The Olson 30 was built from 1978 to 1984; 255 were reported built, however, the highest hull number reported still to be in existence is #246.
