Last Updated: 2025-04-29

PAPA BILL is in excellent condition with a new engine recently installed. She has been loved by her long term owner who is now moving to a power yacht. Her specious, comfortable interior is immaculate with fresh upholstery throughout. her fit and finish is impressive with solid teak in excellent condition throughout.

Sparkman & Stephens produced the design for this 37 foot cruiser/racer in the late 70's. Almost 500 hulls were eventually built by Tartan - an impressive production run for a high quality cruising boat. Construction details are fantastic and her interior is beautifully constructed. Accommodations are comfortable and conceived for living while under way. She features a swift hull shape that sails well and her centerboard design accommodates anchoring in areas where normal fixed keel vessels can’t go. Her timeless lines turn heads wherever she goes.

Don't wait on this one! She will sell fast!
