The Odyssey 30 is an American sailboat, that was designed by Carl Alberg and first built in 1960 in the San Francisco bay area. A total of 15 examples were completed.[1][2][3][4]

Many of the design elements of the Odyssey 30 were used in the Alberg 30 of 1962.[1][4]

The design is often confused with a different boat with the same name, the George Cuthbertson-designed 1987 Odyssey 30.[5]
