including an automatic one in the engine room, smoke detectors and a stern platform with
ladder extending below the water. All welds were x-rayed during construction by an
independent firm to assure a very strong hull.
Underway: Having just completed a seven year circumnavigation, she has
shown herself to be an excellent sailor and has had 200 mile days. She has eleven
Barient two speed, self tailing winches, which includes one electric winch for handling
the main halliard and reefing lines as well as the jib furlers. The Brooks and
Gatehouse Sailing Monitor and depth sounder, with cockpit repeaters and wind display was
continuously accurate. The IC M100 VHF and Icom 735 Hand and Hi-seas transceiver
with automatic tuner functioned remarkably well. The Alpha Marine Autopilot and
Monitor wind vane proved invaluable. "Trinity took bad weather in stride, never
slamming in the roughest seas. She proved very dry and secure.
