It’s almost time for the TVK Spring Meeting 2023. We will gather in the North of The Netherlands this year.
The programme is as follows:

On Ascension Day, Thursday 18 May 2023, we will gather in Lelystad,  Flevo Marina . We have reserved dock 12B, where we will be docked side by side. But for those who prefer a box: this is possible too. Around 16:00 we will meet on the docks for our famous Dock Drinks. By 18:00 we will be expected in a restaurant near the harbour:  Aan ut Water . The buffet will be ready for us in ‘our’ hall on the first floor. A stair lift is present.

On Friday 19 May we will travel to Schokkerhaven. We will pass the Ketelbrug that runs every half hour. The regatta will be held on the Lelystad – Ketelbrug route. (or Ketelbrug - Schokkerhaven, depending on wind and weather). In Schokkerhaven   Marina Schokkerstrand we have another dock waiting for us. And there will boxes available too.

After arriving that afternoon there will be no formal TVK programme. However: because no restaurants near Schokkerhaven can be reached without a car apart from the harbour’s own restaurant, we would like to know who will be eating on their boats, and who has dinner plans with others, and who would like to eat in the restaurant (own expenses). To avoid disappointment TVK will book a number of tables at the restaurant, called Pier 16

Saturday 20 May we will start the programm on time:
"Peeping at the neighbors"
From 10.00 - 11.30h we can visit each other's boat under the motto "peeping at the neighbors" (Concours de Créativité in a different guise). Gerard Hoogewerff coordinates this. What exactly we are going to do remains a surprise, Gerard will help us on our way on Thursday evening.

11.30 - 12.30 Lunch on your own.

In the afternoon we will explore the area. We have the choice to visit the Waterloopbos or the Museum Schokland.

Waterloopbos  Rijksmonument Waterloopbos is a historical outdoor laboratory in a beautiful ‘polderbos’. Hundreds of experiments took place here to research the behaviour of water. You will find remainders of research into the Deltawerken and of waterworks for exotic locations like a harbour in Lagos. The forest is freely accessible from dusk till dawn. Trails have been marked that will guide you past different models, visible as ruins in the forest. For more information, visit the Dutch website here.

We are shown around by guides from Natuurmonumenten who can tell us everything about nature and technology

Museum Schokland Schokland was the first Dutch monument to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is because the area offers a rare view into Dutch history. In the soil you will find archaeological remains that span ten thousand years.”

12.30h Departure of the bus from Schokkerhaven to Museum Schokland and Waterloopbos

Friday regatta / rally Schokkerhaven.

Because there is (without a car) no other restaurant in the vicinity of Schokkerhaven then that of the harbour itself, we like to know who should like to dine in a restaurant (at own costs). To prevent disappointments the TVK made a reservation already for some tables in the harbour restaurant.

A few weeks ago we received following mail from Mr. Wolfgang Willutzki: I'm the owner of a Trintella Ia from1969 with a fiberglas hull, teak deck and mahogany superstructure. The ship was bought in Holland in 2008 and has since been fully refurbished. Not only has she been restored where needed, she is now also fitted with today's technology.

After a short period of illness our treasurer and member of the comission Care and Maintenace  Henny Op de Weegh died on october 21.  Henny sailed after a Trintella II many years with the Trintella 42 Onyx in Greece.  As old -mechanic on the freighters of KPM was a real sailor. We thank Henny for his voor his dedication to our Association.

For the fouth  time  Peter van der Waa was very succesfull in publkishing our new style glossy magazine. Again it is a very readable high standard quality magazine.   It is for the members as well as for  relations in the yachtmarket. Read here the Dutch version. The five articles  marked on top with an English flag are translated.  For the English Translation :

 We have found Theo Neilen from ’s-Hertogenbosch willing to work on the Project Scale Models led by Peter van der Waa. Theo will be checking the models, cleaning them and repairing them where needed, before we take the pictures.

Yachtbuilder Joop Doomernik announced two new sailingyachts which get the name Trintella .  The ships are  45 and 50 feet long and designed by  German Frers.

Reed  here  the article from  Jachtbouw Nederland (Yachtbuiding Holland) which announced the news. The article is in Dutch but you can already see the beautifull artist impressions.

In our newsletter of March 2018 we mentioned the film Adrift, based on a book by Tami Oldham, in which a Trintella 44 named Hazana has an important role. After seeing this film, some of our members have recorded their experiences.
