Trintella IV

This sailing yatch is a bluewater cruiser ready for long trips, and appears both venerable and modern. In our possession it has been given a solid upgrade. We, a family of four with small kids, have recently arrived back home after a successful sailing journey from Greece to Norway - a trip 6000 nautical miles long.

The boat has new and integrated instruments from Raymarine - where everything communicates:
-Chartplotter Axiom9+ with Navionicsmap of Europe
-Autopilot
-Wind, depth and speed
-AIS sender and receiver
-Camera in mast head
This instrument pack is alone 900 Euros plus installation and commissioning.

The boat has a solent rig and center cockpit, a long keel with keel attached rudder, is spacious with the aft cabin, is sturdy, and therefore suitable for long journeys.

It is designed by E.G. Van de Stadt, and build in 1974 by the Dutch shipyard Anne Wever, as one of hundred boats worldwide. The engine, a Perkins M90, is from 2009. The boat is 15.5 meters from the waterline to the top of the VHF antenna.
