The Jeanneau Trinidad 48 stands as a significant milestone in the evolution of French production yachts, representing the brand’s ambitious entry into the high-end bluewater cruising market during the early 1980s. Designed by the prolific Philippe Briand, who has been an iconic figure for Jeanneau since 1977, the Trinidad 48 was conceived as a robust, sea-going flagship capable of global circumnavigation while offering a level of interior volume that was revolutionary for its era. Produced between 1981 and roughly 1990, the vessel features a powerful masthead rig—often configured as a ketch to break up the sail area for short-handed crews—and a hull form that prioritizes stability and tracking over the light-air agility of modern racing designs.
