Alternating layers of strand mat and mulit-axial glass in modified epoxy resin are locally reinforced and cored with closed cell synthetic foam in order to achieve an optimum balance of strength, stiffness and weight in the laminate composite.
- Page 35 Ballast The keel of your Tartan Yacht is of lead alloyed with antimony for added strength and cast to exacting tolerances. In addition to providing the yacht's stability, the foil shape of the keel produces hydrodynamic lift while sailing to weather, enhancing upwind performance.
- Page 36 The lower shrouds may require adjustment to straighten the mast. Now check the rake. Rake is the fore and aft angle of the spar. The Tartan 3400 spar is designed to carry up to (approx.) 12 inches of rake. Rake effects the position of the center of effort of your sail plan and, consequently, the balance of the helm.

Page 52: Fitting Out
13.0 FITTING OUT Note: Tartan Yachts must not be lifted in their shipping cradles by fork lifts without additional strengthening of the cradle. Most fork lifts tend to concentrate the maximum weight in a small area, therefore damage may occur. Recommended procedure requires that boats being lifted in shipping cradles have straps placed under fore and aft upright supports and be lifted by a crane. - Page 53 ELECTRIC OR OTHER WIRES WHEN LIFTING AND STEPPING THE SPAR AS DAMAGE, INJURY OR FATALITY COULD RESULT. TARTAN YACHTS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU HIRE A PROFESSIONAL RIGGER TO ASSIST WHEN STEPPING YOUR SPAR. The spar is stepped through the deck at the mast collar and is seated on the mast step in the bilge.
- Page 54 Do not expose a spar wrapped in plastic to direct sunlight. When storing the spar for the off season, do not allow water to be trapped against the painted finish. Trapped water will fog and blister the paint. master OM Tartan 3400 2012.doc Page 54 of 69...
- Page 55 Refer to the engine Owner's Manual. Remove the engine drain plugs. The engine Owner’s Manual or your Tartan Dealer may be consulted for the location and quantity of these plugs.
