1975 Tartan Tartan Offshore Cruising Ketch 42 FT

Expired
$24,000 USD

Seller's Description

When S & S designed the Tartan Offshore Cruising Ketch, they created a unique cruiser that not only performs well but has accommodations like none other. One look at the spacious aft cabin will convince you that these boats are truly special. Although she may not be commonly known by many as a Tartan classic, the Tartan Offshore Cruising Ketch represents an interesting chapter in the company’s history. The TOCK first took shape on the drawing boards of Sparkman and Stephens in 1974 as design no. 2184 followed by a production run of 30 of these “Passagemakers” during 1976 and 1977. Drawing inspiration from Irving Johnson’s 1959 ketch “Yankee”, the TOCK has several unique features which distinguish her among the Tartan line. Perhaps the most apparent among these is her midships cockpit and high bulwarks, but it is below that the designer’s intent fully unfolds. Purposely designed as a liveaboard for couples, her layout includes a “great cabin” aft measuring a full 22 feet long by 13 feet wide spanning half the yacht’s length, a fully outfitted galley with over 10 feet of counter space, a head with a separate walk-in shower, a pullman style stateroom forward opposite a second head and vanity, and a convertible vee-berth/utility area in the forepeak. The ketch rig keeps the sails easily managed. This Sparkman & Stevens design has a long keel, lead ballast, and skeg-hung rudder for maximum stability, good tracking and maneuverability. Mechanical & Engine Equipment The engine room offers exceptional accessibility from both sides. The factory made a full-sized mock up before hull construction so there would be no unforeseen surprises which resulted in an excellent engine instalation. Deck & Hull Forward deck has a 8” high bulwark at the sheer line for safety. Aft deck is flat from shear to shear. Long fin keel and skeg-mounted rudder. Accommodations The Tartan TOCK offers forward and aft companionways from the center cockpit in addition to walkthrough access to starboard below decks.

This yacht was as built in 1975 and was actively cruising and upgraded. The bottom was barrier coated in 2008. The boat was sold in 2012 for $ 56.500. The hull was sanded down and got new gelcoat in 2012 at the cost of $ 15.200. All the windows new 2012. The yacht was stored on the hard in 2015 do to illness of the owner. I purchased the yacht in December 2015. The deck hatches had small leaks and the headliner in the main cabin was damaged by water. The headliner in the main cabin has been taken down and the leaks have been stopped. The old headliners are kept as patterns to easily be able to make new headliners. One of the small bulk heads in the main cabin was also damaged and needs to be repaired. The floor in the main cabin has some soft spots, but it is flat and a new floor ( inch teak and holly ) can be glued on top of the old floor. With some good TLC this yacht can be put back into a high standard. The hull looks like new. The boat is stored on the hard at the 5 Star RAM Marine in Rio Dulce, Guatamala. The RAM Marina has all repairs and services available on site at a reasonable rate. The 80 HP Ford Lehman Diesel engine runs well and has only 3000 hours after rebuilt. A 2006 15 HP Johnson outboard and a CARIBE Hard bottom dinghy are included. I had plans to launch the boat and cruise the Caribeean and then back to the US, but I am sorrry to have to give up these plans due to my age and health. The items which need to be replaced and/or repaired before launch are 3 or 4 thru hull fittings New stuffing box New Linear Drive for Raymarine Autopilot Need to polish the diesel fuel, A pump is part of fhe inventory New Haylard for Main Sail and genoa and Mizzen

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.9 kn
Classic: 8.04 kn

Hull Speed

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.

Formula

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

8.91 knots
Classic formula: 8.04 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
14.4
<16: under powered

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

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.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
14.37
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
38.5
<40: less stiff, less powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

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.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

38.46
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
249.0
200-275: moderate

Displacement / Length Ratio

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.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
248.96
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
34.1
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat

Comfort Ratio

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.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
34.09
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
1.8
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

Capsize Screening Formula

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.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
1.8
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
