The Tartan 5300 has been designed specifically for long-range cruising and is positioned as an intermediate between long-range and high-speed cruisers. The long waterline and good length/water-displacement ratio indicate that this yacht is capable of high speeds in passing winds, while the sharp waterlines in the bow and the large enough width in the stern ensure a good ride even on sharp courses. The absence of tilting waterlines ensures good handling and stability even on a strong roll.
Traditional Tartan yachts are highly efficient sailing weapons and low center of gravity. The very high quality interior and the architecture with the raised saloon and the cockpit shifted to the center complete the description of this expensive but interesting boat.
