Description
Flying Cloud is an exceptional Performance/Cruiser, which offers a big-boat-feel, in 28 feet of boat. On any point of sail, you will never tire of her balanced design. With her high freeboard design, below deck is open and spacious, providing six feet of headroom throughout the main salon. Her (7) opening ports and (2) opening hatches allow for great ventilation and lots of light. The V-berth is comfortable for a couple, and the quarter berth is also spacious. If needed, there is a slide-out double berth in the main salon. The interior teak woodwork is clean and rich with hand rubbed oil, also with the classic teak and holly cabin sole. The galley and head have pressurized water, and the galley sink also has a foot pump. The icebox is deep and well insulated, with a teak grating shelf and separate drainage. The Gimbaled Stove is CNG with oven and two top burners. The access to the engine is excellent for standard maintenance, and there is an engine pan to prevent fluids from leaking into the bilge. The bilge is very clean, no smells. Flying Cloud is a pleasure to sail…her fin keel with spade rudder lets her turn on a dime. She is easy to set into a groove, on any point of sail. The reverse transom also helps to keep her stable when running downwind…Flying Cloud is a wonderful boat inside and out…and a lot of fun to sail. The ever-popular Tartan 28 is an ideal pocket cruiser and Flying Cloud is an excellent example of this model. Flying Cloud has been well maintained by all three of her owners. Sails include Doyle Mainsail with cover, Doyle 135% Furling Genoa, 110% Jib and an Asymmetric Cruising Spinnaker with Sock. Instruments Include: New Garmin GPS Chartplotter and Radar,...a Depth sounder, Knot Meter, VHF and Autopilot.
