    CRUISING WORLD MAGAZINE HAS A SERVICE WHEREBY THEY WILL PROVIDE THE
    NAMES OF OWNERS WILLING TO PROVIDE INFO. ON A WIDE VARIETY OF BOATS.
    
    THE "OLD" TARTAN 27 IS A WELL RESPECTED, TRADITIONAL DESIGN, NARROW
    BEAM, FULL KEEL.
    
    I'VE LOOKED AT A FEW WHILE SHOPPING AND HAVE ADMIRED THEM FROM AFAR FOR
    A FEW YEARS.  THEY TYPICALLY HAVE GAS, ATOMIC-4 ENGINES, NOW
    BECOMING OBSOLETE RELATIVE TO DIESELS ESPECIALLY WITH THE NO-LEAD
    AND SAFETY ISSUES.  TYPICAL ASKING PRICE IS IN LOW TO MID-TEENS.
    THEY ARE A POPULAR BOAT SO THERE ARE QUITE A FEW AROUND TO CHOOSE
    FROM.  SPOKE TO AN OWNER IN FALMOUTH THIS FALL WHO WAS JUST GOING
    ON THE MARKET.
    
    ARE YOU SHOPPING ?  HOW ABOUT MY BAYFIELD 25 ADVERTISED IN THE #263
    FOR SALE NOTE ?
    
    REGARDS,
