This is an incredible opportunity to purchase a well-maintained Tartan 31! “Tangent” is a solidly built, excellent sailing Tartan 31 that has been meticulously maintained and upgraded. Through a combination of her double spreader rig and tight sheeting angles, high performance Sheel keel, deep balanced rudder and hull form that carries fullness to her long graceful ends, she exhibits strong windward performance as well as reaching and off-wind performance.
Equipment: Accommodations Tangent features a beautiful traditional layout below with a slightly modern touch wrapped in stunning wood throughout with teak joinery and teak and holly sole . Stepping forward through the companionway, the large galley is to starboard and the nav station is to port. Behind the nav station is a double quarter berth. In the main saloon, there are settes on both sides and above each setee is a pilot berth to port and cabinet storage to starboard. The folding dinette table is against the forward bulkhead. Continuing beyond the main saloon, the masterstateroom is forward with a double v-berth and private access to the head.
Galley The fantastic, spacious u-shaped galley is very funtional with a deep refrigerator box, lots of storage and hot/cold pressure and manual water. The stove has 2 burners and an oven.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Shoal draft, sheel keel version: 4.33’/1.32m.
