Again, this manual is intended to help you to know your new Tartan Yacht. It is most
important to familiarize yourself thoroughly with all aspects of operating and maintaining
your yacht in a safe and efficient manner. Read your manual carefully as well as the
booklets supplied by the manufacturers of the components. If any questions arise for
which you can’t find an answer, your Tartan dealer will be pleased to help you.
It is Company policy that the Tartan line of yachts is continually upgraded and improved.
Therefore, you may find your yacht equipped with gear different from that shown in your
manual. Any new piece of equipment will be in all cases equal to or better than, its
predecessor.
On taking delivery of your yacht, be sure to read and understand the Tartan warranty.
Complete the warranty registration and return it to Tartan immediately.
If you are a seasoned sailor much of the manual may be old news but if this is your first
boat, we hope this will prove useful. We know that you will have many satisfying and
happy hours of sailing in your Tartan Yacht.
