Ayacucho is a 1973 Tartan 30 sailboat that my wife Joyce and I purchased in 2001. This
site tells of the
substantial number of repairs, updates and modifications performed to bring
the boat back to the proud
state she is in today. I got a bit carried away
with the scope of work as I wanted more and more to make
this the best Tartan 30 that it could be.
