Tartan 3800 Knowledge or Experience or a Friend With One?

[jviss]

Greetings,

I'm looking at a Tartan 3800, and I have a bunch of questions. Anyone here have one, or know someone who does?

Thanks very much, in advance.

We had a Tartan 372 which was the predecessor to the 3800, and pretty much the same boat, as near as we could tell.

Yes, it looks similar, but of course, there are differences. May I ask you, did you have refrigeration, and if so, where was the compressor and condenser unit installed?

Thanks,

jv

(I have many random questions about this boat!)

Starboard side, behind quarter berth, under a pull-out tub accessed from the cockpit on the right side of the helm seat.

Ah, thanks. On this one the linear drive for the autopilot appears under that. That location makes sense, though.
