Selling Taaroa, my dear 30' cruiser sailboat. Taaroa is a xxxx dutch design boat, Van De Stadt Trintella I. first generation of fiberglass hullls. this boat can pound on a reef all night long and you will both survive. for more info see specs in link below. Taaroa is my first sailboat... and It was love at first sight. I've been procrastinating to put her up for sale. She's my first baby, and she's a classic. The reason I will be moving off island and on to a different continent by the end of xxxx and need to prepare for it. After much thought, I decided it would be best to let go Taaroa. I bought her because I wanted to accomplish two things 1- become comfortable single handing the channels, 2- live aboard. Taaroa offered me both, with style, and safety. She's big enough and equipped to live aboard, small enough to single hand, and has reputable hull construction for cruising. She's big enough to cross oceans, small enough to fit in the swells which aids in a comfortable upwind sail. With a solid windvane, simple ringing and basic electronics radio, gps, AIS receiver, there's not much hardware to fail. Rigging fixings are simpler and easier. A handful of knots is all you need to know and probably the safest way to go. She has a simple Diesel engine, Volvo Penta 2 cylinder which is plenty to get in and out of ports and cruise along when there's no wind. Simple enough to fix it. See below link for specs and photos.
