{"id":589,"count":1,"description":"Tayana is represented in these listings by classic, full\u2011keeled, double\u2011ended cruising yachts\u2014most notably the Robert Perry\u2013designed Tayana 37 and larger models such as the Tayana 55. These boats are described as heavy\u2011displacement blue\u2011water cruisers built of solid fiberglass with traditional all\u2011teak interiors and robust joinery. The 37 is shown as a widely produced model (the example cited is hull #553 of approximately 588 built), and the platform is consistently presented as suited to offshore passagemaking and long\u2011distance cruising.\n\nConstruction and layout characteristics noted across examples include solid fiberglass hulls, cutter sail plans on the 37, and classic teak joinery in the salon, galley and navigation station. The larger Tayana 55 described carries an old\u2011growth teak interior, two cabin accommodations with a centerline aft berth, and two heads each with separate showers, emphasizing storage capacity and traditional interior volume for extended voyaging.\n\nRecent listings demonstrate the typical lifecycle of refit and maintenance work on these yachts. Multiple boats show evidence of teak deck removal with underlying fiberglass and core repairs, professional deck\u2011removal work by a yard, osmosis repairs, rebedded chainplates, serviced deck hardware, and installation of modern systems such as electric anchor windlasses, solar arrays and upgraded battery banks. Mechanical work ranges from routine maintenance to full engine and transmission rebuilds; one 37 is equipped with a 1988 Yanmar 4JHE 40hp in well\u2011maintained condition.\n\nPractical observations from the inventory suggest that owners of Tayana yachts prioritize structural integrity and system upgrades when preparing these boats for extended cruising: deck cores and teak decks are frequently addressed, electrical panels and wiring are commonly modernized, and energy and propulsion systems are refreshed for reliability. When maintained and refitted in this manner, the boats in these listings are presented as capable offshore cruisers with a long track record of blue\u2011water use.","link":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/brand\/tayana\/","name":"Tayana","slug":"tayana","taxonomy":"brand","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand\/589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/brand"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reference?brand=589"},{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yachts-for-sale?brand=589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
