About the Tartan 335

Launched during Tartan's golden era of performance cruising design, this 33-footer represents the Ohio builder's commitment to blending speed with comfort. The 335 emerged when Tartan had established itself as a premier manufacturer of well-built fiberglass sailboats that could handle both spirited weekend sailing and extended coastal passages. Built with Tartan's characteristic attention to construction quality, the 335 features the company's signature deep keel configuration and balanced helm that made the brand popular among serious sailors. The hull design emphasizes seaworthiness over pure speed, making this boat well-suited for coastal cruising and longer passages where reliability matters more than racing performance. Below decks, the 335 offers practical accommodations typical of Tartan's thoughtful approach to interior layout. The builder's reputation for solid joinery work and functional galley arrangements continues in this model, creating a comfortable environment for extended cruising. While not primarily intended as a racing machine, the 335 possesses enough performance potential to be competitive in club racing when well-sailed. This versatility, combined with Tartan's established reputation for building boats that age gracefully, makes the 335 an attractive option for sailors seeking a dependable coastal cruiser.
