This anniversary we are having the 50 Year Jubilee Spring Meeting where it first took place, Veere.
This will be an extra festive gathering, not a copy of the old days but strongly inspired by it.
Hosts and hostesses are Ineke and Piet Jongepier (Vrijheid II, Trintella Ia) and Trees and Willem de Graaf (Ros Beyaert, Trintella IIIA). They have put together a fun and festive programme for us.
The Fall Reunion on Saturday November 17th will be turned into a proper anniversary party. We want to have the party in Den Bosch, for as many members as possible. The programme is getting pretty solid, but we won’t spoil too much.
What we can and will say, is that the location is nearly the native soil of the ships. The programme has a clear nautical theme that will be combined with the pleasures of the great city.
Saturday 18 November we experienced another successful winter meeting. You can read the report at /en/events and look at the pictures of the meeting at en/events/photos or click Hier
The 49e Springmeeting was this year in the Bataviahaven in Lelystad. For this Ascension Day weekend from 25 until 28 may many members had announced themself. 24 member arrived with their boat and about 75 member shared diner.
The TFA has a new project in addition to our normal activities, the objective being to increase the support to Trintel and Trintella owners when it comes to the maintenance and upkeep of their boat. The need for good maintenance is evident.
A few months 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.
This year the autumn meeting was in Antwerp, a lovely city on the Schelde. A story can will you find under "Events". For the pictures look at Events/Pictures Meetings/Najaar(autumn)2016"
