A real blue-water sailor, robust in steel, rust-free thanks to galvanising, with deck saloon and protected cockpit!

High-quality interior fittings
Bright and friendly
The entire interior is finished in solid teak. Many surfaces are painted white with 2K varnish (underneath is mahogany boatbuilding plywood), which makes the ship bright and friendly. There are 3 cabins with 2 berths each. The deck saloon offers a great all-round view. Here, too, the bench seat can be converted into a sea berth. Opposite is a large galley with a new cooker, large double sink and two refrigerators. A satellite telephone is permanently installed on the navigation table (currently not registered).

Reinke knows the way
The Reinke has already completed an Atlantic round and always brought her owner safely and comfortably from A to B. She is extremely robust and, thanks to the higher mast than designed by Kurt Reinke, sails amazingly fast. Wind steering system, electrics for self-sufficient sailing and a sensible anchor harness are all part of the programme here.

The owner put a lot into the ship after his Atlantic tour and got it running again. The engine was completely overhauled by a specialist in 2013 and has run for around 100 hours since then. Every year, the sails were checked by a sailmaker (a visit is due again). The boat has had a lot of repainting, some work done on the teak deck, and so on and so forth. Still, there are a few things to do on the ship before you can set off again:
But when that's done, you have a super boat with which you can sail around the world.
