Sails 4 Sale
I recently replaced my sails on our Tartan 27-2, and I have a serviceable set of sails. This includes; a genoa and a full-battend mainsail. I also have a mainsail cover (dark green) complete with a

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
Well, I'm replying right now from the Nassau Harbour Club in the Bahamas after two dark & stormies and a decent cigar celebrating another easy 40 mile day, going on 4 months cruising aboard, and I can

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. I'll

Re: Type ll cockpit on later T27's
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

Re: NEW OWNER OF TARTAN 27 1964
Ron, You are correct. The difference between a 64' and 65' is pretty minimal if at all. Since you have no mast or boom I can safely assume that you have no standing rigging either (the wires that
