NEW OWNER OF TARTAN 27 1965
ronmarinepcolafl
I am looking for specs on the interior of this boat.
I was givin this boat and it is almost completly empty. The mast I had taken down to get under a bridge and by the time I returned to the ship yard where i left it. Some crackhead cut it up and sold it for scrap. Anyway. My kids and I really like the way it looks and my son is very eager to help rebuild this boat to at least a motorized cruiser. If anyone knows where to get the best deals on parts and maybe even some blueprints so I can build stuff myself. Your knowlege would be greatly appreciated. I am also looking for an outboard to fit this until we can drydock and replace the onboard engine thanks a bunch Ron |
Ron,
You have got an old T27 if I am not miss taken.? It is a beautiful old boat and needs some of the interior perhaps replaced.? A picture or two of what had been removed or damaged might have been useful but I will refer you to a few Files on this website that has the original specifications for the T27 as well as the original owners manual.? My boat still has the alcohol stove and galley on the starboard or right side of the boat facing the bow with a bunch of nice interior varnished teak that still looks nice and my boat is from 1967 so I feel bad for you that your boat was vandalized and hurt.? I am sorry to say that I dont have any pictures of the cabin interior of the Taran 27 on this website but there are some photos of us and aour boat at my webste http://www.odalisque.us/?? I will also refer you to the Links section of this website for information about fibergalss (otherwise known as epoxy and cloth or matt) , your current engine which is probably an Atomic 4 which you might be able to get running if you havent tried much and encourage you to continue to ask about your boat project.? There is an inherent problem with the T27 where the transom slopes in towards the hull makes mounting an outboard motor platform somewhat problematic but not impossible with the use of tools and epoxy and fiberglass.? Even with the best motor you would only be able to go about 6+ mph over water minus current. Are you sure you want to turn this sail boat into a motor boat?? Does it have any sails that the crackhead did not make off with?? Maybe the old gal can still move on her own, Keep us posted and good luck with your project. #328 Odalisque Caleb ?

My mistake it is a 1964 not 65 if that makes a difference....
I did have jib with her. But dont know where to find a mast and boom. there is absolutley nothing inside of her except a sink and a bench. I think the guy who gave it to me was just putting around fishing off of her. I love the way she looks.... though kept up very poorly by the last owner. I under stand fiberglass pretty well. I know how to paint boats. I am just not real familiar with the interior and how to build correctly. I am attempting to build the interior platform for the bed in the bow area so I can at least spend the night on her. The prev. owner has already fixed a mount on the rear of the boat for a outboard. But she still has the ability to glide right along with a sail. I just need a mast. She has no atomic 4 . for some reason it has been removed and the shaft hole plugged. She doesnt leak. Alos none of the exterior is available either...... this is strickly a shell of a boat. But I see much more. Even if it takes a while to make worthy of using. I am also looking for a trailer to get her out of the water and work on her. So if you hear or know of anything send me a line. If you want to see some pics to give advice let me know. I know nothing about this boat but I am learning and love this boat more and more... --- In T27Owners@..., calebjess@... wrote: old boat and needs some of the interior perhaps replaced.
