Beta Leonis is not the typical charter boat, it's a boat with a history.

Beta Leonis is a Trintella V of 48ft from 1974. She was designed by AG Van de Stadt, an international ship designer and built by Anne Wever Shipyard, renowned for their high quality ship building. Trintella V was their ‘flag’ and biggest ship or as they wrote themselves:

“Those who want comfort, space, quality and optimal seaworthiness demand a lot. The Trintella V guarantees these qualities. A ship that commands respect, a majestic appearance on all the world's seas.”

After only having 2 different owners over 45 years whom took very good care of Beta Leonis, we bought the ship in 2019 to make a 1 year and a half long trip from Belgium to the Caribbean in 2021/2022 with our family. In preparation for this long trip, I extended the comfort and provided Beta Leonis with extra equipment for off grid traveling. The galley was extended with modern cooking equipment. I added a generator and transformer to provide electricity. I installed a water maker to transform sea water into drinkable water and all double beds were adapted to give ‘home’ sleeping comfort.
