What's New For Tartan Yachts
Tartan C&C Yachts is proud to introduce three new vessels to its line of fine sailing yachts.
2006 has been a positive and successful year for Tartan and C&C yachts and 2007 is looking even brighter and more promising!
The Tartan 5100 expands on the possibilities offered by the raised saloon layout. Tartan's 5100 sports a very long sailing waterline and extremely clean hull form, promising fast passages and broader cruising range for the dedicated performance sailor.
Her balanced hull volume ensures a well-mannered yacht that will reward her owner with exhilarating performance. Should your desire be racing to Bermuda, the 5100 will get you there in comfort and ahead of the pack.
Tartan's dedication to the most advanced yacht construction allows the design to maximize the performance ratios.
Tartan has made the commitment to excellence in construction, affording the designer greater latitude in offering that most rare combination; comfort and speed.
Ask our competitors about their build techniques, if they are not talking about epoxy hull laminates and carbonfiber masts, they simply cannot deliver the performance you deserve!
WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE ADDITION OF A 43-FOOTER TO THE TARTAN LINE.
THE TARTAN 4300 ~ Traditional styling coupled with a hull and rig that are designed to deliver optimal cruising performance all in a very easy to sail yacht are the hallmarks of the Tartan 4300 design. On the surface, the 4300 has all the design elements of classic American yacht design. Graceful sheerline, balanced overhangs, complimentary low coach roof, sweeping cockpit coamings and thoughtful convenience details on deck all give the 4300 a very classic profile. However, built within these stylish good looks are elements that take full advantage of Tartan's advanced construction practices providing excellent performance that is realized with minimum effort.
A long and lean hull is fit with a choice of low CG keels designed for great stability and sail carrying ability, and a carbon mast and "Pocket Boom" that are extremely stiff and strong. Tartan's overall commitment to advancing the art of yacht construction allows an opulent interior while still maintaining impressive performance numbers.
Her weight control results in a center of gravity that is lower than most cruising boats, improving performance and handling characteristics, even when loaded for extended passages.
A modern classic in the making, the Tartan 4300 promises to be a head turner in any harbor!
The Tartan tradition of offering unmatched interior comfort is expanded in the Tartan 4300. Choose from layout plans with two or three cabins to meet your cruising family needs. Foth feature a forward owners stateroom with a queen size double "island" berth for easy access and extensive lockers and storage for extended time aboard. The forward head is accessed from this stateroom. The center of the boat has a large main cabin area with plush seating, entertainment locker and plenty of storage in varnished cherry cabinetry.
The galley is fully equipped for preparing meals dockside or underway. A full forward facing nav station with electrical controls and nav locker to house a full array of naigation equipment rounds out the central living areas. Aft the 4300 can be fit with either a single cabin or split aft cabin providing private accommodations for 3 couples. Finish throughout is varnished cherry cabinetry and trim, and varnished teak and holly sole, the 4300 surrounds her owner with opulent comfort.
A classically styled yacht, built with uncommonly advanced materials and methods, and a hull driven by a high performance easy to sail rig, the Tartan 4300 is the latest in Tartan's fleet of crusing thoroughbreds.
Walking down the dock, theTartan 3700 CCR's rig stands out from the crowd. A carbon fiber engineering showpiece, the lofty tapered rig sports an integrally molded, strong and lightweight masthead and crane.
Her double spreader rig is stronger, stiffer, and lighter than an aluminum mast. This results in an increased righting moment, greater sail carrying ability and vastly improved sailing performance. Stronger and stiffer mean safer and faster, because carbon can be tailored to meet the changing load requirements in a mast, extra material can be added where it is needed most, this results in a mast that can be engineered with higher safety margins. A stiff rig remains in tune through changing conditions and results in all of the energy of the sails being directly transformed into the energy that drives the boat. A yachts rig is the engine that powers the boat, carbon fiber delivers maximum performance, while increasing safety and strength.
Tartan developed its "Pocket Boom" on its award winning Tartan 3400. This unique feature provides the ability to fit an easy to manage, uncompromised performance mainsail. Unlike furling masts or booms, the "Pocket Boom" mainsail is cut with full roach, full battens and optimized draft. The "Pocket Boom" is fit with an always-in place sail cover, unzip it and raise the sail from its contained "pocket". When dropping the main, it falls into the boom and lazy jack enclosure, no muss, no fuss! Zip the sail cover back over the sail and the 3700 CCR is shipshape. With Tartan's "Pocket Boom", performance cruising is not compromised by convenience, instead it is enhanced.
