Description
This 1986 Tartan 28 was designed by Sparkman & Stephens and combines a fast and agile modern underbody with classic Tartan interior and exterior craftsmanship. The graceful fiberglass hull is hand-laid for the best possible ratio of strength to weight. Above and below decks, extensive teak trim and cabinetwork provide unusual warmth and character. The 28 is built and equipped like larger Tartans and its efficient deck, cockpit and interior plan will comfortably entertain and sleep five. The Tartan 28 was built not just for waters where under 30 foot boats normally sail but for ocean conditions.
