Re: Fairport Marine?
You can find sails that will fit with minor modification. If you need
boom vang ideas let me know. I had one installed and it's pretty
straightforward if you disable the boom reefing. It makes a

Re: Fairport Marine?
Chris,
I do have a pretty good memory when I am sober and I remember Marino Curati from the old discussion threads at sailboatowners.com. That is how I know he added a boom vang to his rig; he

Re: Fairport Marine?
Hey Caleb,
Check my last response. It is Marino that still own's the boat.
You know it? He said he used to check in all the time until the site
crashed... No health issues I think he just wants to

Re: Fairport Marine?
Hey Caleb,
I don't think Mario owns this boat anymore. The guy who is selling it
is named Reno. He's done some work to it and it look like it's in fine
shape. There is a boom vang on the boat, you

Re: Fairport Marine?
Chris,
That was Marino Curati's old boat from the tartan27owners.com website where he was a regular contributor. I am curious about WHY he is selling his boat? This can be an important question. If

Re: Type ll cockpit on later T27's
Hey Adam!
You rock... all great information. Good to know. I've got my eye on
two boats actually, one a 69 and one is a 74 or 76... not sure. Either
way, I'm trying desperately to get rid of my

Re: Type ll cockpit on later T27's
Hi Chris,
I have a Type II, #636. As Caleb points out, most of the changes are
very minor, but for the most part a little better. I have cut and
glassed in a lazarette locker to my boat and even with

Re: Type ll cockpit on later T27's
They are barely trailerable. It takes a hefty trailer to move one.
I got some really good sailing in this weekend. Sailed both Sat and
Sun. Sunday in particular I sailed about 10NM in the evening.

Re: Type ll cockpit on later T27's
Thanks Caleb! I like the older models myself as well. I'm in
Nashville, TN and I keep my current boat (San Juan 24) on Old Hickory
lake. I'm trying to sell the SJ in order to purchase the T27.

Chris,
Sorry to take so long to respond to your post. I have a type 1 T27
from 1967 so I can't comment on the changes made to the type 2
cockpit. All I can tell you is that there are a lot of happy

Re: NEW OWNER OF TARTAN 27 1964
Ouch..... I think on that boat I would tell you to hunt down another
one. Your going to spend $4k getting it back to being a sailboat, even
conservatively. You might find a mast for about $200. But
