For Sale: REDUCED: Tartan 30 now $8000

[thetinii]

Unfortunately, we have to sell our 1975 Tartan 30 because we are moving out of the country soon. We are reducing the price to $8000. We have had this boat for 2 years and spent the summer on it sailing the southeast coast. The boat is currently docked in St.Augustine.

Atomic 4 Engine
We have redone a lot on the engine. Prior to leaving on our trip down the ICW, we had a mechanic look over everything and he said that it was in better shape than many new engines he works on. There are plenty of hours left on this it.

New Components
Carburetor
fuel pump, sediment bowl, and lines
starter solenoid
points and condenser
distributor cap
voltage regulator
ignition switch and wiring
alternator belt

Issues to address
Choke wire needs replacing, doesn't work from cockpit

Interior

New LED cabin lights
Installed bead board ceiling
Newly recovered cushions
New 8 inch memory foam mattress with Froli system
Most woodwork has been refinished
Pressure water system with shower in head

Issues to address
Bilge pump float switch needs replacing - have a new one just haven't installed it
The windows leaked at some point and warped the cheap veneer over the storage space. It's purely cosmetic but could use replacing. There are no leaks on the boat at this point.

Exterior
Dodger (but needs some stitching)
Recently refinished woodwork
Magma grill
New mast light
Standing rigging in good shape

Issues to Address
Deck needs repainting - previous owner did not use quality paint and it's flaking

Upgrades & Extras
Prop shaft stuffing recently repacked
Self-tailing winches
New rudder (yes, that's an interesting story)
3 Danforth anchors and 200' of new rode
4 sails
90 watt solar panel, two new batteries, and new battery switch
Auto pilot on the boat but we've never used it so we don't know if it works

We also have a 2003 Achilles inflatable dingy and 2004 4hp 4stroke outboard - both in good condition. If you are interested in that as well we can include it for an additional $800.

Is it still in St. Augustine? I'm not sure what the date is for your post. I am planning to go back down this winter, I can either sail down from the Chesapeake (not a bad plan, did it last year had a good time) OR I can find a boat already "Docked" there??? I'd like to know also if you have docking arrangements currently, if so what are the terms.

Thanks,

RG

It is still here! We just posted this last night and we do have it docked at a marina here. I am pretty sure the slip could just be transferred but I will double check. Are you wanting to buy soon or wait until winter? We are leaving the country in two weeks and really want to sell quickly!

I will send you a message with docking terms too!
