The Tartan 3400 is both a tribute to the rich history of her predecessors and the embodiment of Tartan Yachts’ dedication to advanced construction and equipment technologies. Clearly a top shelf yacht, the exterior of the Tartan 3400 is a classic East Coast look that seems timeless. The sole contemporary distinction is a large, square-cornered opening in the reverse- raked transom that allows for walk-through boarding (when the swing-up helm seat is out of the way), and unrestricted self-bailing. She’s a beautifully crafted sailboat that’s fully capable for offshore sailing.
Equipment: The 30 HP Volvo Penta diesel (550 hrs) is installed with a sail drive unit forward;
Beautiful woodwork fills the interior with a layout that features an aft galley arrangement and symmetrical settees on either side of the drop-leaf table. Headroom near the midline is at least 6’ 4”. The V-berth has a door and good ventilation with ports on either side and a deck hatch. There are also enclosed shelf and hanging locker cabinets forward of the bulkhead. The private aft cabin is entered on the port side, aft of the galley. The enclosed head and shower are aft of the chart table on the starboard side;
AGM batteries
The 3400’s sail-handling equipment and overall rig design are aimed at achieving optimum performance with minimum hassle. The mast is built with a unique integrated, low-friction track system, allowing the full-battened main to be easily raised and lowered within a lazy jack system. Custom-made for Tartan, the carbon-fiber boom is a “trough” design further aiding mainsail drops and flaking.
The roller-furling 100% jib is self-tacking. The sheet is led to a self-tacking cabin top traveler just forward of the mast. This working sail, with the tack located just aft of the stem, is used for all upwind and heavy-air sailing while providing effortless tacking for sailing shorthanded.
I : 47.25 ft J : 13.75 ft P : 41.92 ft E : 13.67 ft Working Sail Area : 573.00 sq ft
The 100% jib is self-tacking, making single handed sailing easy. In addition to the main hatch there are two addition overhead hatches in the main salon and the forepeak. Deck mounted shroud terminals are thru-bolted to wide stainless chainplates, which in turn are bolted to husky fibreglass settee backs securely bonded to the hull itself.
The cockpit has high seat backs and is deep and secure for safety, and the wide side decks make it easy to move fore and aft.

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)
