We get calls all the time saying "My boat is better than New" In this case the boat has been maintained and improved to such a high level it can be called "Better than new"
The Tartan 3700 herself is one of the longest in production, most popular models out there featured in such lists as 5 Top Affordable Bluewater Cruising Sailboats. First introduced in 1999, Tim Jackett's 3700 quickly achieved fame, winning Cruising World's Best Midsize Cruiser award for 2000. Sure there have been some issues, but overall, and with over 100 hulls on the water, the 3700 has claimed her spot in the cruising sailboat pantheon. Many confuse the 3700 with the old Sparkman & Stephens 37-footer built in the 70's and 80's. The 3700 is another animal with a ultra-modern underbody that can move - and I mean move - in light air.
Dockside
The 3700 is a handsome design with down right sexy lines. While floating at anchor, underway, or parked along a pier dock, she turns heads. She has a traditional raked bow, a relatively flat sheerline, and a rocket ship stern. . Tim Jackett decided for a flush transom instead of the sugar scoop stern
On Deck
Starting forward she has a large, separate anchor locker and optional washdown. High quality hardware, a refreshing change from the junk most production builders use, is generously sprinkled about deck. Walking aft, dorades along the cabin top provide ventilation and accompanying handrails security. A carbon fiber rig was originally an option, but in 2004, Tartan made the double spreader, 56' carbon fiber standard - realistically a must have for any club racer. The masthead, keel stepped rig setup is simple with tie ins below deck through mid sidedeck attachment points. The speader are slightly swept with a split backstay aft and optional hydraulic adjuster.
The 3700 still has a centerline wheel instead of the twins you'll see on the latest designs. There is a gigantic portside cockpit locker that houses the holding tank, power suppy, and provides access to the steering aft. Under the helm, there are two more opening lockers to the steering, autopilot, emergency tiller, and electric transom door equipment.
Down Below
Interiors sell yachts - even racing sailboats. And by interiors, I mean not only space but finish. Tartan has held her margin for 40-odd years because of the fantastic interior finish. Let's face it. Stem to stern, the 3700 is fitted out with masterful American craftsmanship.
