These are great bluewater boats. Ketch rigged design with good accommodation and seakindly motion. 
We have done 3 Atlantic crossings in our and we have another couple of crossings planned for the next 2 years.  
Huge storage, walk in engine room with a bench. Excellent engine and generator access.
For a heavy boat she has a tall mast and sets a lot of sail. Her light wind performance is good. Being deep draft, 7'2" she goes well up wind in a blow. 
We love our Trintella
