This 1984 Tayana 37 is a Bob Perry design built around a full keel, canoe stern, and classic bowsprit cutter rig. The fiberglass hull sits on a cutaway keel, and a Yanmar diesel engine rated at 30 horsepower provides power for cruising. The boat reaches a maximum speed of 7.3 knots. Designed for offshore passage-making, this yacht combines traditional proportions with proven seaworthiness and has been substantially built to withstand demanding conditions.
The interior layout accommodates a couple with space for occasional guests across two cabins and two heads. The main saloon centers on a solid teak drop-leaf table that opens to seat eight, with a long bench settee to port and a dinette forward to starboard. A large butterfly hatch and numerous opening ports provide ventilation and natural light throughout. Headroom reaches 6 feet 4 inches. Teak joinery details the cabin sole and cabinetry. Storage is abundant across numerous lockers and cabinets, with dedicated provisioning space for extended cruising.
Recent years have brought extensive system updates and replacements. A new integrated air conditioning unit was installed in 2024, though its compressor requires repair. New upholstery refreshes the interior. The rigging includes a new mainsail, staysail, and roller-furling genoa at 130 percent. Equipment aboard includes a Winddex wind vane, chart plotter, GPS, and AIS. The deck is fiberglass throughout rather than teak, finished with varnished trim and a polished hull. A retrofit that began in 2019 remains nearly complete.
