Van der Stadt – Strooker 900 Vita 30 “My Fair Lady” – characterful sailing yacht
The Van der Stadt – Strooker 900 Vita 30 “My Fair Lady” is a characterful, solidly built classic cabin sailing yacht from 1995. This special sailing yacht was built by Vreugdenhil's Jachtenbouw in Alphen aan den Rijn to design no. 409 by EG van de Stadt. The combination of a Red Cedar woodcore/fiberglass-reinforced epoxy hull, oak frames, a dark blue hull, and a warm mahogany/oak interior gives this ship a completely unique appearance.
With a length of 9.25 meters, a beam of 3.15 meters, and a draft of 1.50 meters, the Vita 30 offers a fine balance between sailing characteristics, comfort, and practical usability. The fixed lead keel and displacement of approximately 4,000 kg contribute to a solid and stable character. Steering is performed
Traditionally operated with a tiller, equipped with a Navico TP100 autopilot. On deck, the teak walking deck stands out, extending over the foredeck, side decks, aft deck, and cockpit. Furthermore, the “My Fair Lady” features a sprayhood, guardrails, pulpit and stern pulpit, swimming ladder, swimming platform, winter cover, and two Bruce anchors. The aft cockpit is fitted with a movable cockpit table and offers a pleasant spot to enjoy the outdoors while sailing or at anchor.
The interior is typical of a classic Dutch sailing yacht: warm, atmospheric, and finished in mahogany and oak. The spacious saloon features two longitudinal settees and a cabin table. There are two sleeping areas with a total of four fixed berths: a V-berth in the forward cabin and a double berth in the aft cabin. Additionally, the longitudinal settees can be used as two extra berths. The accommodation is complemented by a 100-liter water tank, an electric compressor fridge, a two-burner ENO gas stove with oven, and a Wallas Marin kerosene heater.
Propulsion is provided by a Yanmar 2GM20 diesel engine with approximately 16 hp continuous power and 18 hp peak power, coupled to a Yanmar Kanzaki KM2P gearbox and propeller shaft with folding propeller. Two VARTA batteries, shore power with battery charger, and a battery monitor are present. Navigation equipment includes, among other things, a 2021 Garmin GPSMAP 722 Plus, Furuno GPS Navigator, Silva depth sounder, and Navico autopilot.
For the sailor, there is an aluminium mast with four sails, including a mainsail and a 20.2 m² Hagoort Sails High Aspect jib from 2022. Additionally, an older dacron genoa and spinnaker are present. The five manual Lewmar winches complete the rigging.

Please note: the coating of the hull and the anchor hatch require some maintenance. Additionally, the gas installation and shore power installation need to be brought up to current standards. Some electrical/navigation equipment is currently not functioning, including the VHF radio, the compass, and the anemometer.
