Hi Keith,
Here is some information about preparing your Tartan for transport.
http://www.brownellsystems.com/uploads/boat_prep.pdf I used Brownell Systems to transport my boat from Lake Erie to the east coast. Your transporter may have some additional information. I also took the time to remove the standing rigging and spreaders, except the head stay and roller furler. I used carpeting to pad the roller furler and head stay and tied everything up very well. Be sure to label all the rigging, so you know what goes where when you put it back together.
You may want to leave the mast down during winter storage and step it in the spring. When stepping the mast, be sure to support the centerboard as you will have to run the pennant up through the mast using the tag line left by the yard when they unstepped the mast. There was some good information about tuning the rig and using Spartite at
http://www.tartan37.com/page6.html, but the page is currently unavailable. I have asked the webmaster to check into it. I have heard that the local yards here are fond of the butyl rubber, sticky backed construction tape available at your local home improvement center for sealing the mast at the partners. Then cover it with your choice of mast boot.
Have fun!
Mark
