The Anne Wever KETCH TRINTELLA IV sailing yacht, available for sale in Sanxenxo, Pontevedra, represents a true icon of classic and safe sailing. With a length of 12.2 meters, a beam of 3.5 meters, and a draft of 1.6 meters, this model launched in 1971 by the prestigious Dutch shipyard Anne Wever is a testament to the excellence in shipbuilding of its time. The reputation of Anne Wever is closely linked to the robustness and elegance of its vessels, and this particular yacht is the result of the design by E.G. van der Stadt, known for his focus on reliable ocean-going boats with great seafaring character.

The KETCH TRINTELLA IV was conceived as a cruising yacht with great autonomy, ideal for long-distance voyages and extended stays on board. Its timeless lines and ketch rig with a central cockpit provide a perfect balance between maneuverability, safety, and comfort. With approximately 50 units manufactured during the 1970s, this model stands out for its structural solidity, thanks to a hull laminated in polyester reinforced with fiberglass, thicker than many modern vessels, giving it remarkable resistance against osmosis and impacts. The deck, renovated in 2017 with teak installed by Nauteka, also offers a warm and secure feeling underfoot, combining functionality with classic aesthetics.

The experience of sailing this yacht is unparalleled: the stability provided by its long keel and the balanced arrangement of the aluminum masts with renewed rigging ensure smooth passages even in demanding conditions. Maneuvering is facilitated by elements such as the Facnor Flat Deck furling system for the genoa, Andersen winches —including an electric one for the mainsail— and a completely renewed sheet and halyard system. The main sails (mainsail, mizzen, and furling genoa) were replaced in 2017, and a spinnaker in excellent condition is also included, expanding the sailing possibilities to different courses and winds.

In terms of autonomy, this yacht excels. It has fuel tanks with a capacity of 800 liters and fresh water tanks of 600 liters, both with baffles and inspection, allowing for long voyages without relying on frequent stops. The Perkins 92 HP engine, housed under the cockpit and completely isolated from the cabin, provides generous power to achieve cruising speeds over 8 knots. The electrical system is reinforced with AGM batteries for both services and starting, supported by state-of-the-art Victron and Phoenix Smart chargers with Bluetooth, ensuring energy at all times for navigation and comfort on board.

The interior of the KETCH TRINTELLA IV is surprisingly spacious and welcoming. The layout maximizes the length, with two independent cabins —one in the bow and another in the stern— and capacity for six people in comfortable berths. The noble wood decoration and the classic layout of the salon, with a fully equipped L-shaped kitchen (three-burner gas stove, oven, electric refrigerator, double stainless steel sink, and gas water heater), invite life on board for long stays. The yacht has two bathrooms (one with a shower and both with hot and cold water), and access to the stern cabin is from the cockpit, enhancing privacy and comfort for the crew.

Regarding instrumentation, the Raymarine electronics include GPS, C80 radar, wind equipment, sounder, autopilot, and Ray52 VHF installed in 2019, facilitating both coastal navigation and ocean crossings. The safety equipment is up to date, with elements such as a plow anchor with chain, fenders, mooring lines, life rings, and fire extinguishers.

The exterior equipment is completed with a bimini top, renewed sprayhood, electric windlass, bow thruster, davits for the dinghy, and a 2.5-meter auxiliary boat with a 2.5 HP Mariner outboard motor. In the main salon, a television with DVD and CD radio has been installed, and the interior lighting has been upgraded to LED for greater efficiency. The incorporated Navtex adds an extra layer of safety and additional information during voyages.

The port of Sanxenxo, in Pontevedra, is a privileged location for those wishing to explore both the Galician coast and embark on routes to the Atlantic or the Mediterranean. The natural protection and services in the area make this destination an ideal base for enjoying and maintaining a yacht of these characteristics.

Whether for long journeys, family cruising, or living aboard, this second-hand yacht combines tradition and modern technology to offer a genuine and safe maritime experience, ready for new voyages from one of the most attractive ports on the Galician coast.
