History

Originally published in 1978 by Eric Bohn, Deborah James, and Hugh Wallis, the Tartan 27 Handbook is a compilation of articles from the T27 Association newsletter, The Jib Sheet, augmented with material from symposiums and other sources. The demand for this information far outstripped the initial printing of 200 copies, and a second edition was issued in 1981. Ten years later, as the boat achieved "classic" status, the handbook was revised and reformatted in its current form.

To simplify distribution, this third edition of the handbook has now been converted to a searchable PDF format suitable for browsing on your computer or for printing (165 pages).
