Vessel is built for cruising and for living aboard.
The boat has German and Brazilian documents.
Length over deck: 35’
LOA: 40’
Beam: 10’ 2”
During the general overhaul and rebuilding of the boat from 1992 to 1994 at the KALMAR boat builders in Itajaí-SC in southern Brazil, the whole interior construction, decks, cabin top, cockpit and the aft cabin were removed and then reconstructed accordingly to a new design which was based on the experience of ten years cruising and living aboard.
The galley is totally equipped.
For all bunks exists at least two sets of bedding stuff.
All kind of tools help to keep things up and guarantee a certain independence.
OWNER COMMENTS:
Why did I buy the boat (in 1974-75)? Why did someone buy at that time a Hinckley?
Look at "The proper Yacht" - and a VINDÖ is in there.
They were strong, safe and beautiful cruisers. And I knew the boatyard, the owner and the people which build the boats (we had a 28' and a 33' before).
And when I ordered I had a 120 items list of changes and extras - and they accepted.
My guru at that time was Bernard Moittessier - tells you everything, or not?
I have lived on the boat for ten years, until 1985, when I settled in Brazil. I never have been afraid of work or maintenance - but tropical sun and varnished mahogany just don't go together. And teak decks are for people which don't have a clue.
After building a house and stating a new family I decided to re-build the boat - getting it the way I wanted it after some 50 K miles at sea.
I could have sold and buy something else - but what? I wouldn't trust one of these Beneteau -type new designs and a Valiant 40 or a Maramu where a bit out of reach.
So I decided to keep the best of it - the hull and the rig and a few other things - and shoot the rest.
In the end I had spent US-$ 125 K - but had a boat which could go anywhere.
And we did. With my wife and our two small kids we sailed to the Caribbean, the US, to Europe and then via the various Atlantic islands back to Brazil.
Approaching the Canaries the spanner screw of the Genoa furling gear came apart - material failure. But the mast didn't come down - because of the inner fore stay. The manufacturer replaced it and my only technical problem in a three years cruise with
13 K nm was resolved.
She requires a knowledgeable buyer, someone who knows the difference between quality and just eye catching.
She requires someone who wants to sail offshore and live comfortable and needs to trust his boat even then, when the weather window is actually closed - that's the one.
And why do I sell such a good boat? Moving on with new interests.
Accommodations
The cockpit section:
Inside the doghouse is a bracket for a GARMIN 48, the command for the Autohelm 3000, the Tri-Data, motor panel, the inlet for shore power, two 12V sockets and the main sheet winch.
The second autopilot is a RAYMARINE 1000 which works in conjunction with the wind vane steering (replacing the wind vane but using the mechanical power of the servo rudder to steer the boat).
The cockpit is well to the aft and extremely comfortable with three bunks - two meters long, cockpit cushions, a table for four and a grill on the stern.
Left of the navigation table is the pilot bunk with a port hole towards the cockpit, reading light, ventilator, boards and nets to store personal stuff.
Another single berth one will find on the port side of the main cabin – opposite of the U-sofa with a table which seats four, with the table extension a crew of six will sit comfortable.
The cushion covers are in a light colour and in excellent conditions.
With the table lowered one will have a double bunk or two sea berths with the divisions in place.
On both sides of the main cabin and on the bulkheads are plenty of shelves and cup boards.
Reading lights and ventilators are standard.
An ample bathroom with shower and the cloth locker are separating the main and forward cabin which has a double bunk and shelf’s for cloth and books, reading lights and ventilators – besides the fact, that there is big hatch right above the heads for ventilation.
Galley
The galley has a SS sink with fresh water and a salt water taps, a two burner stove (gimbling) with oven, ventilator, three lights, a freezer/fridge (gimbling) which runs on propane/butane, 110 V or 12 V and lots of lockers and space to store food, drinks, pots and pans

The self steering equipment is a WINDPILOT, integrated and protected by a platform which carries as well the 23’ High Gain SSB antenna.
Integrated into the stern push pit is a SS structure which carries the antennas for radar and GPS and has still room and connections for a wind generator.
The navigation table is big enough for half a chart and equipped with a GARMIN 76, a FURUNO 16-miles-radar, an ICOM 728 SSB transceiver (which has an automatic antenna tuner) and a manual tuner for emergency antennas. A VHF Uniden MC 625, a SEAFARAR 3 depth sounder (back up), plenty of space for charts, a lap top, books and navigation “toolsâ€, lights, a ventilator and a hand bearing compass. Right next to it are the electrical switch board, volt- and ampere meter, the AUTOMAC alternator control and the engine hour counter.
Electrical
When entering the companion way one steps onto the box of the YANMAR 3GM30F with 27 hp. After removal of the ladder and the two parts of the engine cover, the entire engine until the prop shaft is accessible for maintenance.
Behind the ladder and underneath the bridge deck is the battery compartment with six batteries (a total of 460 amp./hrs.) and the 1750 W inverter. Next to it are two main switches for the three separate battery banks.

The double life lines are SS, the netting goes from the pulpit until the splash guards.
There are awnings for the forward section and the main cabin (with rain water catchments). The cockpit awning stays normally in place when sailing and has additional side panels.
All fittings and tracks are mounted on the toe rail. The cleats are heavy duty and fixed with horizontal bolts. The chain plates for stays and shrouds are bolted onto the hull from the outside.
