Tartan 3100
Description
The Tartan 3100, designed by naval architect Tim Jackett, was produced by Tartan Marine in 1994 as an updated iteration of the acclaimed Tartan 31 series (total ~318 hulls across variants -- exact hull count unspecified but low-volume within the 31 series). This masthead sloop refines the original with minor hull tweaks for improved performance, a fin keel with spade rudder for responsive handling, and a fractional-like sail plan for balanced cruising/racing—sleeping 4–5 in a modern teak interior, renowned for its build quality, speed, and value retention as a coastal/offshore performer.
