Reinke Super 11 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the used market for a Reinke Super 11 means entering the world of German-engineered aluminium cruisers where factory-finished and owner-completed hulls sit side by side. The model was offered both ways from new, so a buyer must read each specimen on its own merits rather than assume a uniform production standard.
Layouts on the Used Market
The Super 11 carries two cabins and a 4+3 berth arrangement, with a galley and a toilet facility below anchor. Headroom is above average, which matters on a metal boat where interior liners can eat vertical space. Keel choice divides the fleet: a bilge-keel version draws only about 1.30 to 1.40 metres and reaches shallow marinas, while a fin-keel example needs 1.60 to 1.70 metres but remains manageable in most harbours. The aluminium hull and deck are constant; the completion level and keel type are what separate one used Reinke Super 11 from another.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Well-equipped boats on this market commonly carry heating, bow thrusters, autopilots, solar, AIS, chartplotters, lithium batteries, inverters, hot water, and swim platforms. For a cruising buyer the consequential clusters are power and energy—lithium batteries, inverter, and solar together define off-grid range—and navigation and control, where autopilot, AIS, and chartplotter turn short-handed passages into a realistic plan. Bow thruster and heating are comfort and docking aids that signal a northern-European use history. Less common, seen as owner upgrades, are freezers, radar, life rafts, and setups arranged for short-handed or circumnavigation use.
What to Inspect
The defining inspection point is that the Super 11 was also sold to be home-completed, so build quality may vary hull to hull anchor. On an aluminium yacht that means checking weld quality, hull fairness, and corrosion protection at every through-hull and bonded joint. Confirm which keel is fitted and its actual draft under load, since the bilge and fin versions behave differently ashore and afloat. Verify the shaft-drive transmission and the rigging sizes—jib and genoa sheets at 11.7 m and 14 mm, mainsheet at 29.2 m, spinnaker sheet at 25.7 m—as worn or undersized running rigging is a visible neglect indicator.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats typically appear in Germany, Netherlands, France, Greece, Italy, and Croatia. A short buyer checklist: confirm factory versus home completion; inspect aluminium welds and corrosion defense; identify keel type and measured draft; test shaft drive and rigging; review energy and navigation fit-out against your intended use. The Super 11 rewards a careful survey with a Class A ocean-certified aluminium hull that can be as shallow-draft or as deep as your cruising grounds require.
