Thanks a lot Bill, is that your new construction or the original? Can you also tell me whether the chainplate is through-bolted to that wood or screwed on?...
Dave, The big thing with adding a bridge deck is what it does to cabin access: a step is needed at about the same height as the factory threshold. One 26,...
Curtis I would guess that the knees are about the same construction that Tartan used on this 27: http://www.goodoldboats.com/PROJECTS/T27%20Chainplate.htm Tod ...
A smidgen more progress. Cut into the sole a bit. Talk about filthy, caked in old engine oil and other crud. I expected it, though. After all, when I first was...

Bill, Is there anything in particular you would like to see about the spreaders? Mine are off the mast in a box at the moment but I could certainly dig them ...
My job is to make all other progressers look exceedingly fast and skillful! Okay. Finding one: particle board paneling (I had a few sheets in the house when I...
Continuing the mock-ups: Tonight I adjusted the height of the platform covering the porta-pot/head to what I think will work. I tried a couple of heights and...

Hi, Bill First let me apologize for removing you from the list. I'm not real savy with this list administrative stuff. On of the things the admin tools show ...
Tod, The reason that e-mails were bouncing was that I changed addresses and did not upgrade my Yahoo profile. That is probably the case with a lot of people. I...
Well... I hate to do it, but I've decided to go ahead and sell my T26. I just can't see myself (actually my wife can't se me ;) jumping into another boat...
Hey there, My name is Chris Graham, and my wife Kerin and I are searching for a reasonable coastal cruiser for the NEw England Coastline. We want something...
The Tartan 26 might be a good fit for you if you can find one in the condition you want. I and my girlfreind brought ours up to Casco Bay from NYC in the...
Hi Curtis! Thanks so much for your information. We received some unfortunate information from our broker about the boat that we were considering. He said...
Chris, Was the 26 you were inquiring about the green one (Valcour VI) in Shelburne, VT or a blue one near Fairhaven, MA? When I was looking for a 26, I toured...
I am not sure if I am the only one wondering this, but I figured I would throw it out here anyway. Of the 73 Tartan 26s that were produced how many are still...

Thanks. A few weeks ago I bought a 27' Birchminster, dual axel trailer and a 15hp Johnson outboard at a very good price. A fixer-upper, but I see quality under...
Hey Tod, are you still working on your boat? Still got it? Just curious. I have been working at mine in fits and spells for a couple of years now with the...
