The Tartan-34C is a traditional Sparkman Stephens designed in 1969. Stepping aboard one notices wide decks and a generous cockpit that drains well. The design is a keel centerboard which allows the boat to perform well to windward and yet still capable of shallower harbors frequently encountered when cruising. The companionway is designed for off-shore sailing such that up to three hatch boards can be set to prevent any boarding wave from going into the cabin.

Looking below you will find a well-ventilated quarter berth to port, just aft of a small navigation table with chart drawer underneath. An 18" opening port provides excellent air and light. Immediately to starboard is an L-shaped galley that has a 10" deep sink with a retractable swiveling spray hose. The original, two burner alcohol stovetop, with a cutting board cover providing a generous counter top.  Just aft of the stove is a generous storage area for dry goods, the Icebox has been removed.

In the main cabin, there is a generous dinette to port that utilizes one of the seat-back cushions to create a large double berth. A bulkhead-mounted drop-down table with an extension leaf provides for comfortable seating for five. Under the dinette is a 25-gallon fuel tank and dual, oversized batteries.

The engine is located amidships, along the centerline, a product of smart S&S nautical engineering. Then the easily removed engine cover provides nearly all around engine access.

To port and aft is a cozy pilot berth that has a padded bunk board that can be positioned to serve as either a back rest or lee board. Underneath is a 35-gallon water tank that has two access / inspection ports to facilitate cleaning.

Forward of the mast, and to port is a double entry head with a standard WC and vanity sink. There are closets and drawer stowage on the Starboard side. The spacious v-berth can accommodate 2 people. There is also a hatch providing light and ventilation.
