When Tartan's designer, Tim Jackett, set out to create the latest in a long line of excellent 37-footers from Tartan, he thought past the usual approach to the performance/accommodation puzzle to arrive at a number of wow, that's the way to go-style solutions. The result is a fast and stable performance cruising yacht with an uncommonly welcoming and functional interior.
A key aspect of the Tartan 3700's reassuring stability is the generous 12-foot 7-inch beam that is carried well aft, but with an innovative twist at the stern where topside flare adds plenty of deck and cockpit space, while keeping the transom waterline on the trim side. The tall, two-spreader masthead rig provides plenty of sail for rewarding performance in light winds, and each of the 3700's keel options is designed to make the boat stand up and keep driving in breezy conditions.
The accommodation plan of the Tartan 3700 works equally well for feeding and watering a cruising crowd or for pampering a family or two cruising couples on an extended sailing vacation. The two staterooms are completely
private, each with generous-size clothes drawers and hanging locker. And by cleverly angling the bulkheads of the dinette outward and angling the bulkheads of the nav station and galley inward the feel of the 3700's interior suits the
particular function of each space. Wow, that's the way to go!

NPG Isothalic gelcoat for superior gloss retention
Epoxy hull laminate producing a strength to weight ratio not attainable in any production polyester laminates
Epoxy allows all uni-directional fabric laminate, no chopped strand mat
Epoxy's superior adhesive strength reduces overall hull weight while increasing strength producing a faster and safer performance cruising yacht
Strict resin control through use of resin impregnation machine and calibrated mixing equipment produces glass to resin ratio of 65% glass, 35% resin. (production polyester boats are typically 25% glass, 75% resin=heavy and brittle)
Superior fatigue and cyclic loading characteristics of epoxy ensure a hull that retains its shape and strength longer resulting in higher resale value
Extensive internal structure designed to carry rig and keel loads, glass taped into hull using modified epoxy resin
CoreCell linear polyurethane foam hull coring, provides lightweight structure, stiffness, sound and thermal insulation and superior impact resistance
Hull is vacuum-bagged and structure is laminated in one shot thus does not rely on secondary bonding of structural materials
Hull is post-cure baked for 24 hours at 145 degrees increasing epoxy laminate characteristics.
Epoxy hull laminate is far stronger than any polyester laminate of similar weight, i. E. Greater safety margins while delivering superior performance over normal production polyester hulls
90 degree throw, Marelon, flush thru hull fittings. Marelon fittings are UL and ABS approved and are corrosion free
Complete interior paintout for enhanced cosmetics and to seal interior laminate surfaces
Built to meet ABS Plan Certification
Industry leading, non-prorated 15 year hull structural and blister guarantee
Warranty is transferable
Deck is a balanced composite laminate utilizing vinylester resin, unidirectional E-glass reinforcement, and high strength/stiffness Baltek premium AL 600 balsa coring
Our custom resin infusion process creates the best resin-to-glass reinforcement ratio possible resulting in the stiffest, lightest, strongest deck in production boatbuilding
Weight saved high increases righting moment improving safety and performance
Infusion process with vinylester resin provides a stronger more fatigue resistant deck laminate than typical production polyester deck laminates
Deck is locally reinforced at high load areas with additional plies of bidirectional E-glass reinforcement
NPG Isothalic gelcoat for improved color and gloss retention
Gelcoat is formulated for greater flexibility reducing occurrence of common gel coat crazing
White or off-white gelcoat with patterned, molded non-skid surface on horizontal deck areas.
Balsa coring also offers acoustic as well as thermal insulation increasing interior comfort
Core windows at all deck hardware installations. Window is reinforced with solid laminate and isolates hardware installations from cored laminate, reducing stress crazes around hardware often seen in laminates reinforced with plywood and eliminates rot problems associated with decks reinforced with plywood
Structurally loaded hardware backed with either FRP or 6061 T6 aluminum backing plates
Time-tested hull to deck joint. Deck is fastened to inward facing hull flange with integrally molded hardened 6061 T6 aluminum bar forming a full sheer length backing plate
Stainless steel fasteners sized to meet or exceed ABS standard for offshore use, are drilled and tapped into aluminum bar, offering full serviceability from the outside of the boat
Deck to hull joint bonded with 3M 5200 adhesive sealant
6,200 lb. (2721 kg) fin, 6,200 lb. (7812 kg) beavertail or 6400 lb. (2703 kg)
keel centerboard, 4% antimonial hardened lead casting
Template ground for fit and maximum performance
Faired and epoxy coated
Deep fin, beavertail bulb design, or keel/centerboard significantly lowers center of gravity improving righting moment. Result is increased sail carrying ability, performance and safety
