Trintella Iia Buyer's Guide
The Trintella IIA is a late-1960s masthead-sloop cruiser with naval architecture by Ericus Gerhardus van de Stadt and construction by Jachtwerf Anne Wever B.V. of the Netherlands, with fewer than 100 completed. For a shopper on the used market, she presents as a small-volume Dutch fiberglass boat whose numbers reward a careful look at structure and rig rather than at flashy equipment.
Layouts on the Used Market
Used Trintella IIA boats follow the original two-cabin, three-berth arrangement with a galley and a toilet. The hull is fiberglass with a fin keel and skeg-hung rudder, about 32.8 feet long on a 24-foot waterline and 9.2 feet of beam. Fresh water is 100 liters and fuel is 25 liters, so the layouts you find will be compact coastal cruisers rather than bluewater liveaboards with enlarged tanks.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
The most consequential factory item is the optional Volvo Penta MD2B diesel with shaft drive, which defines the auxiliary setup you will be maintaining. Beyond that, the boat's masthead rig invites attention to running rig: listed estimates give a 29.2-meter mainsail halyard and matching genoa halyard at 10 mm, a 25-meter mainsheet at 12 mm, and 10-meter genoa sheets at 12 mm. A buyer should treat a 135 percent genoa as the standard overrigged configuration, since the sail-area-to-displacement figure rises to 19.9 with that sail. Canvas, navigation, and comfort gear should be evaluated as owner-fitted variables on each specific boat.
What to Inspect
Inspection should center on the fiberglass hull and deck for osmotic or impact damage, since both are molded glass and the wetted surface runs about 23 square meters anchor. Verify the fin keel attachment and skeg-hung rudder bearing condition, and confirm the Volvo Penta MD2B installation and shaft drive are intact where fitted. Check the masthead rig's standing and running rig against the listed lengths and diameters, as worn halyards at 29.2 meters are a real replacement cost.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
No regions are stated for this model. For a buyer, the takeaway is a short checklist: confirm hull and deck are sound glass, verify keel and rudder attachments, test the MD2B and shaft drive if fitted, and budget for full running-rig replacement based on the masthead sloop's long halyards. Accept the two-cabin, three-berth layout as fixed and the 100-liter water and 25-liter fuel capacities as limiting range.
