Tillotson-Pearson Manta Clipper 1991

Introducing the Manta Clipper 34, a high-performance sailing yacht expertly crafted by Tillotson-Pearson and designed by Garry Hoyt. This 34-foot vessel boasts a forward helm and a distinctive sail plan that enhances its handling, making it an ideal choice for both experienced sailors and newcomers alike. With its innovative roller reefing rig and thoughtfully planned deck layout, the Clipper prioritizes simplicity, safety, and efficient sailing for those who prefer to sail short-handed. Its planing hull design allows for impressive speed that defies traditional displacement limitations, ensuring an exhilarating sailing experience. Built in Rhode Island, alongside renowned brands like J/Boats and Alden Yachts, the Manta Clipper is recognized for its robust vinylester construction, providing a stiff ride and outstanding sailing capabilities. Inside, you will find ample standing headroom and a spacious dining cockpit, which features an icebox, fold-down table leaves, and comfortable seating for twelve with full-length cushions. A roller-furling bimini offers sun protection, and the bipod mast enhances structural stability while minimizing hull loading. The interior layout is practical for cruising, providing comfortable accommodations and excellent storage and ventilation, making it perfect for both weekend getaways and extended coastal adventures, all while maintaining a performance-oriented feel. Powering this vessel is a professionally repowered diesel Yanmar 4-cylinder, 160 hp engine, with convenient access provided through custom engine access hatches. The boat features a stainless steel propeller shaft and a fixed bronze 3-blade propeller, along with modern conveniences such as Morse controls and an Edson steering wheel. Accommodations include a generous v-berth with a privacy curtain, additional berths outboard with inboard seating, and a well-appointed wet head compartment with a fresh water vacuflush toilet and a hot and cold faucet. The galley is designed for functionality, featuring exceptional storage, a large icebox, a fiberglass sink with a mixing faucet, and an Origo 3000 non-pressurized alcohol stove. The cockpit is thoughtfully designed with fore and aft arches to prevent any accidental contact with the boom, providing great visibility and seating for twelve. A large swim platform enhances accessibility, allowing for easy boarding and the handling of a small dinghy. Electrical systems are well-equipped with 12-volt cabin and running lights, an automatic battery charger, and two batteries with a selector switch. For electronics, the vessel includes a Data Marine digital depth sounder, a speedometer, a new Icom VHF radio at the helm, a wheel autopilot, and a Garmin GPS with depth and speed functions. The rigging features bi-pod carbon fiber masts, an aluminum boom, and a roller furling system for the code zero spinnaker, jib, and mainsail, all of which have been reconditioned. Additional equipment includes a custom winter cover, cockpit and berth cushions, safety gear, and tools, ensuring that the Manta Clipper 34 is ready for any adventure on the water.
