Additional Info

Cruise-Ready Layout:

Originally built for the charter market, Tana features a generous cockpit that seats up to 8 people, dual helms that open the space, and a fold-down transom for easy water access and added space at anchor.

On deck, she’s designed for easy handling with all lines led aft, allowing for safe and manageable single-handed sailing. The shrouds are well positioned, providing unimpeded side deck access.

Hurricane History & Refit

Tana was briefly in charter before sustaining storm damage during Hurricane Irma in 2017, when the port-side transom cracked, allowing water ingress up to the galley. In response, the engine was replaced with a used Volvo Penta (approx. 3,000 hours). All wiring aft of the galley was redone, and the fridge compressor and stove were replaced.

Interior staining is visible on cabinetry aft of the galley, but the forward sections remain clean and intact. Overall, the below-deck space gives a good impression with solid cabinetry, generous headroom, and a modern, liveable design.

Interior & Comfort

Despite her size, Tana feels remarkably spacious. She offers:

• Two full-sized cabins
• A large head with storage
• Ample lazarette space
• A bright, modern salon with good ventilation and layout

Her interior layout and natural light make her well-suited for extended stays aboard.

Recent Mechanical Work

• Sail drive seal replaced (2023)
• Heat exchanger, exhaust elbow, and pan gasket replaced 2024
• Fridge compressor and stove upgraded

Sails & Rigging

• Genoa was improperly cut from a larger sail; currently usable when reefed, but should be replaced
• Fully battened mainsail is serviceable but aged
• Standing rigging: Age unknown, annual inspections recommended
• Estimated cost for new jib, main, and sail bag: ~$6,000 (6-week lead time)
