Description
WILLOW
1986, Tartan 28 Sloop, 28'
This 1986 Tartan 28, WILLOW is a Sparkman & Stephens design that combines a fast and agile modern underbody with classic Tartan interior and exterior craftsmanship. Her fin keel/spade rudder design allows for speed and maneuverability whether under sail or powered with her diesel auxiliary. The double spreader rig is powerful yet easy to handle with control lines led aft.
WILLOW is a fast, performance-oriented sailboat that doubles as a comfortable family cruiser. WILLOW features a teak interior that is spacious, well ventilated and can easily sleep 4-5, ideal for a young family coastal cruise to the Islands. Below decks you are treated to a rich oiled teak interior with standing headroom and plenty of ventilation for overnight stays onboard. Forepeak double berths and a salon double berth make for comfortable private accommodations for a couple of couples enjoying time on the water. The aft berth is extra-long, perfect for an outsized adult.
WILLOW is nice clean boat, well maintained and ready to go.

John joined Brooklin Boat Yard in 2004. Using his expertise and experience in used boat brokerage sales he established a successful used boat brokerage operation. Also, in 2004 John started the development of a racing program for the Brooklin Boat Yard built 76’ Spirit of Tradition Goshawk resulting in podium finishes in the 2005 Marblehead to Halifax Race, the 2006 Newport to Bermuda Race and equally impressive performances in classic yacht regattas here in Maine and Southern New England.
John continues to race in local mixed fleet races and Classic Yacht Regattas mostly on boats built by Brooklin Boat Yard and notably as “the world’s oldest bowman” on the Brooklin Boat Yard built Eggemoggin 47 Lynnette from 2013 to 2021 and occasional guest appearances on sister-ship Lark.
Today, John continues to manage and expand the brokerage operation but can just as likely be seen out in the yard or on the water helping the rigging and yard crews in the busy Spring and Fall launching and hauling seasons.
