1992 Martens Marine Pinta One Tonner, EUR 20,000

This unique vessel is in excellent condition and boasts a distinguished history. As the winner of the 1993 Admiral's Cup, she is well-known among competitive sailors.

Pinta remains in her original condition. She was built using 100% carbon fiber by Martens Marine in New Zealand. All components are original to the build, with many parts crafted from titanium. The vessel has undergone structural and keel-bolt inspections and is in excellent shape. Rated for Ocean Category 1, she is fully capable of offshore sailing, including crossings of the Atlantic. She participated in the 2023 AZAB race (Falmouth–Azores and back). Equipped with an NKE autopilot and Garmin electronics, she is well-suited for double-handed sailing. All electrical systems have been renewed; GPS and AIS are installed. The helm can also be operated via remote control.

What makes Pinta special is her relatively light weight and superb lines. Designed by Judel/Vrolijk, she is fast and offers precise handling. The extensive trim options offer a world of possibilities for fine-tuning, yet she remains easy to sail however you prefer.

The running rigging was completely replaced in 2023.

Sail inventory: High-aspect laminate jib, laminate mainsail, 140% Dacron Genoa, 3 spinnakers, and a storm jib.

The galley features a two-burner gas stove and two water tanks with a Whale pump. A marine toilet is installed, and the boat sleeps four people.

She is powered by a Volvo Penta 2003T engine. New batteries are on board, along with a solar panel and Victron inverter.

In short: if you are looking for something truly special that will provide years of enjoyment, Pinta is the perfect choice. An excellent boat for learning to sail. She is ready to sail right away. Everything is on board for future sailing trips.

A Garmin chartplotter and a Standard Horizon VHF radio with AIS are available for purchase as well. The onboard system is N2K-based.
