I am specifically looking for a T-37. How many of the 40 boats you looked at to possibly buy were Tartan 37s? Yours is a nice looking boat!

We only looked at one Tartan when we were shopping, they are pretty rare on the West coast. Searching Yachtworld.com shows 9 currently for sale. all on the East coast, probably all centerboarders. Betty Lou is a deep fin keel model.
