Yacht building : Third generation plans revival of Reinke yachts

Kristina Müller

 ·  04.05.2022

They have fuelled the sailing dreams of an entire generation of self-builders: Kurt Reinke's construction plans. With them and the associated self-build system called HD ("Hobby Design"), anyone should be able to fulfil their dream of owning their own ocean-going yacht. Either by building one of the numerous designs from Reinke's pen completely themselves - hull and interior. Or by ordering a hull from a shipyard or a private hull manufacturer from the partner pool of self-builders, leaving only the interior fittings to be completed. A complete order was also possible - but rather rare.

In the late eighties and early nineties, dozens of Reinkes were built in barns, meadows, gardens and backyards. Quite a few of them have since left the world in their wake. Quite a few were never completed. Even if Kurt Reinke's vision of low-cost self-builds for everyone did not always work out, the boats, which could be made of either aluminium or steel, established themselves as robust and popular long-distance vessels. Well-known Reinke owners such as Heide and Erich Wilts with their three "Freydis" yachts or vlogger Nike Steiger with her "Karl" have also ensured that the boats conjure up images of distant cruising grounds in the minds of various generations of long-distance travellers.

A lot has happened since the beginning of the Reinke era: Kurt Reinke, who provided his community of self-builders with information, advice and further developments with almost superhuman commitment, and his son and successor Peter Reinke have passed away. Now Kurt Reinke's grandson Sverre Reinke is taking over the distribution of the self-build plans, together with his sister Kyra Reinke and her partner Elmar Krüger. The young trio - all sailors themselves - have plans to breathe new life into the former self-build system. Even if this will certainly not be easy, as Sverre Reinke reports.

"Times have changed," says the 29-year-old from Bremen, who lives in Hamburg. "Only a few people still have the facilities, the space and perhaps the expertise to build their own." Sverre Reinke is therefore once again on the lookout for partners. "Above all, we are looking for shipyards and hull manufacturers who want to work with us. We have already held initial talks."

Shipyards for aluminium yachts are rare, the order books of the existing ones are full, and the majority of the so-called hull manufacturers from the early Reinke years have already retired, are in the process of doing so - or are sailing on their own keel towards retirement (see also " Best-of for the great voyage"; a portrait of Michael Matzerath from Düren and his "Malu" in YACHT 23/2020 ). Other partners such as sailmakers are also being sought again.

But the Reinke siblings and Elmar Krüger are still at the very beginning. The Website has already been reorganised and the official company foundation is currently underway. All three of them work part-time; Sverre Reinke is in the process of completing his degree in aerospace engineering; business economist Kyra Reinke, 33, and electrical engineer Elmar Krüger, 35, work at a shipyard for large ships on the Weser.

The founders have already realised that there is demand: "We regularly receive enquiries," reports Sverre Reinke. At the moment, however, they cannot do more than sell construction plans and provide advice - as best they can. All three are sailors, Sverre Reinke is particularly at home on the regatta course. Most recently, the partner of mini-transat sailor Lina Rixgens was involved in the preparation of her boat, and he is currently sailing a Dehler 30 OD in regattas on the Baltic Sea.

Kurt Reinke's grandson knows that the project is ambitious and that much of it is still a vision. The main focus is currently on putting out feelers - and after initial discussions, he is hopeful that the plans will become reality.

Reinke Super 10 again

• Thread starter mireland
• Start date 8 Jun 2004

Has anyone sailed a Reinke super 10 (37Ft) with steel hull? I am interested to know how they sail. Have looked at the Reinke site but gain very little from it. Seems to say that Reinkes are stopped by short coastal seas? <hr width=100% size=1>  

MainlySteam

I have not sailed one but am butting in as I will be away for the rest of the week and I saw you did not get much reply last time you posted on this. If the builder says it does not go well in short seas, as he says on his site, then one must assume that he is correct - designers/builders are not normally open with those things. While it is hard to tell from a study drawing and photos it would appear to me that the comment is correct - the boat is relatively beamy (3.5 m on a 9 m waterline length) and that appears to be placed well forward and carried towards the bow. Coupled with a moderate canoe draft (draft without keel) and comparatively narrow stern section it may also be a pitcher (in my view a short waterline length boat needs broad sections at one end to dampen pitching in short seas - if that is so then obviously the stern is the best place for that). I may be wrong but the builder seems to be saying the same. Looks a nice boat if that ability is not of concern. John <hr width=100% size=1>  

No comment/knowledge on your post, but could you please post the URL for the designers site? Thanks Charles <hr width=100% size=1>  

Thanks for your replies. It all comes down to a sea trial then I guess - in a short steep sea! I am not experienced enough to be able to make many comparisons though so still crave info from someone who has sailed the blighters. URL for Reinke is www.reinke-yacht.de They have shortened a 12M hull to 9M waterline but retained the beam for accomodation so far as I can see. They say this might slow her down in a short steep sea. I am not racing and she seesm seaworthy but I do want a boat that will tack without exhausting everyone! Thanks again, Mike <hr width=100% size=1>

The following comments may be of some help if not known already. When sailing to windward one is usually at 40 something degrees to the waves and this makes a very big difference to the boat's motion (much less tendency to pitch as the effect is to lengthen the frequency of encounter with the waves) and its energy loss though pitching is much less than if the same waves are head on or very close to it. In my opinion a useful test is to motor the boat directly into steep seas of wavelength much less than your waterline length and see how it behaves. If performance in steep short seas is important, and assuming moderate availability of power you should be able to drive the boat directly into close spaced seas as high as your forward freeboard (from trough to crest so they will not be on average be cresting quite as high as your freeboard) and into the wind driving them without coming to a stop through pitching action and should be able to maintain at very least 1/2 hull speed on average. A well found steel yacht should also easily be able to withstand the strains of this and not feel or sound as if it is struggling in any way. If the boat has low forward freeboard so that the seas are smaller when doing this trial than one would expect to be able to handle regularly then you either have to be prepared for having a very wet boat to sail or getting one with more freeboard forward. Once the wavelength of the seas extends out beyond around the the same as the waterline length of the boat any boat will then proceed to go up and down over them and I am assuming that is not the case you are concerned about. Contrary to ones natural inclination, carrying alot of weight in the bow (anchors, chain, warps, etc) will significantly reduce pitching due to the increase in longitudinal mass moment of inertia gained. There is a speed penalty in smooth water from carrying such weight in the ends of the boat but it is small and in my view of no consequence to a cruising boat. John <hr width=100% size=1>  

Thanks so much for your detailed reply- very helpful indeed. I have now found a 2000 Reinke Super 10 for sale in the Netherlands. It has an Aluminium hull and is selling at £50000. The boat I am looking at is 1985 in steel and is offered at £27000. I like the boat but worry it may be too pricey. Now I know why people buy Nics or Contessa's or Sadler's etc!!! Thanks again. <hr width=100% size=1>

This Aluminum Reinke 13M has been built and fitted out in excellent quality with a lot of attention to details, access and practicability. Well equipped for blue water cruising with ample spares and tools. A secure cockpit is one of the 13M features which is the most built design of Reinke. The twin keel design gives a shallow draft with beaching capacity. Overall in top conditions and ready to go, worthy a visit.

Sailboat Review: Dufour 41

• By Herb McCormick
• September 17, 2024

When it comes to a discussion of the great European naval architects of contemporary times—and it’s a long list, indeed—certain names immediately pop to mind. Many are French. Philippe Briand made his mark creating boats for a roster of production builders (Baltic, Jeanneau, CNB) before pivoting to the superyacht set (Perini Navi, Royal Huisman). Jean-Marie Finot was more or less the father of an era of the best Vendée Globe solo round-the-world racers ever to compete in that grueling contest. Marc Van Peteghem and Vincent Lauriot Prévost (VPLP Design) are the current masters of offshore multihulls. The talented tandem of Jean Berret and Olivier Racoupeau are ubiquitous as the creators of many French brands, and sit at the forefront of their profession. 

To me, however, one of the more underrated European ­design mavens, and one who definitely belongs in that rarefied grouping, is Umberto Felci. While Felci was born in Milan and still operates from his base in Italy, I’ve always considered him a huge influence in French ­boatbuilding­—largely because of his longtime association with Dufour Yachts, where he’s been the principal designer for some 15 years. 

During that time, I’ve sailed many a Felci boat, as he’s been a consistent presence in Cruising World ’s annual Boat of the Year contest . He has won multiple times with his Dufour entries, including the 560 Grand Large (2014), the 382 Grand Large (2015), and the 520 Grand Large (2018). All of these Grand Large boats shared a similar DNA, and the Dufour booths at the major boat shows were easily ­recognizable for their similar lines and matching beige canvas dodgers and sail covers. The only huge difference across the fleet was their respective sizes.

All that changed in a big way in 2019, after the Fountaine Pajot group acquired Dufour and decided to make each new offering a singular model in form and styling. Which brings us to Felci’s newest design, the Dufour 41. 

Aesthetically, it’s safe to say that the bright-blue Dufour 41 at this past year’s Annapolis Sailboat Show in Maryland was one of the more distinctive-looking yachts on display. It has a rounded bow, ample beam, and not one but two chines, both carried almost the entire length of the boat—one just above the waterline, another just below the reverse sheer line, which is accentuated by prominent molded bulwarks. This boat looks and feels much larger than its 41 feet length overall. Forward, an integrated bowsprit for the ground tackle and the tack point for the asymmetric kite heightens the futuristic vibe. As does the series of three sleek windows in the hull (along with the additional pair of windows overhead in the coachroof). There is not a stick of timber to be found anywhere. 

Topsides, the ­combination of wide side decks and outboard shrouds makes for easy egress when moving forward or aft. The emphasis on “outdoor living” is underscored by a generous cockpit with twin wheels (but, as with all Dufours, a single rudder, which makes backing down easier and with more control). There’s also wraparound seating, including a cushioned daybed, as well as a drop-down transom, which doubles as the porch/platform for the barbecue well aft. All this is revolved around a table—a pretty sweet, comfortable layout that lends the impression of lounging aboard a much bigger boat. 

All the related equipment is first-rate. There’s B&G instrumentation, including the chart plotter and autopilot; a Quick vertical windlass with helm controls for the Delta anchor; and a Side-Power (Sleipner) bow thruster, which I reckon is a luxurious touch on a 41-footer. Our test boat was set up with a nice set of Elvstrøm sails, including a traditional mainsail (an in-mast furling mainsail is available) with a cool stack-pack arrangement that tucks into itself and is secured with shock cords. For our Boat of the Year trials, we test all the emergency rudders, and the one on the 41 was exceptional. 

Construction is straightforward and robust. The hull is vacuum-infused with solid glass below the waterline and a foam core above. There are a pair of molded-in channels for the plumbing and electrical wiring. The plywood bulkheads are laminated to the hull. The keel is cast iron. And, as with every Dufour going back to the company’s origins, a wine rack is stashed under the floorboards. 

Ardizio Design is ­responsible for the belowdecks accoutrements, accommodations and floor plan. Its team used those aforementioned chines and, more specifically, the voluminous interior that the chines created, to wide advantage. As with Dufour’s other models, there are three packages of features, trim and equipment—on the 41, these are labeled Adventure, Ocean and Performance—depending on how the boat will be used (basic sailing, dedicated cruising or racing). With the 41, there are also two interior options: either three or four staterooms. Both have a straight-line galley to starboard, with the dining table and wraparound settee to port.

Our test boat had the three-stateroom layout, with a spacious master forward and a pair of double-berth staterooms aft. It also had three heads, which, to be honest, seems like a bit of overkill on a 41-foot boat. The second head, in the center of the boat, can be replaced with stowage, which is the setup I’d prefer. 

The 41 sports a double-­spreader rig with swept-back spreaders and a self-­tacking jib. The double-ended German-style mainsheet, anchored at midboom, is easily trimmed with a pair of electric winches (an optional electric winch for the mainsail is ­available). There’s no traveler; after all, this is a cruising boat. 

Under power, the 50 hp Volvo Penta with a saildrive configuration had us zipping along at better than 6 knots. This was one of the quieter boats, decibel-wise, in the 2024 fleet. But we were all itching to hoist the sails, and we were not disappointed. At first, in a fitful breeze that was just filling in, we still made over 5 knots in 6 to 8 knots of wind. Soon enough, the pressure built into the 10- to 12-knot range, just in time to hoist the boat’s big asymmetric kite. On a tight reach, we made an effortless 7.5 knots, and the helm was just delightful, with only a light three-finger touch required for full control. 

Those Grand Large prizewinners from years past were, of course, all Felci designs. While this new Dufour looks absolutely nothing like its older siblings, it sails just as well, if not better. Felci may have changed the recipe under the company’s new regime, but he hasn’t forgotten that what we really want is pretty simple: We want to go for a fine sail.

Dufour 41 Specifications

Did You Know?

French boatbuilders were pioneers in fiberglass-sailboat manufacturing. Naval architect/engineer Michel Dufour joined their ranks in 1964 with the launching of the Sylphe, a radical (for its time) 21-foot pocket cruiser with a masthead rig and fin keel with attached ballast bulb. More than 400 were built in a 10-year production run.

Dufour has ramped up its introduction of new models in the past five years, and now has nine in production ranging from 37 to 61 feet, with a 44-footer on tap to be introduced in the United States this fall. Of that collection, the company’s 41, 470 and 530 are all available with electric auxiliary-propulsion options.

Dufour has laid out an aggressive growth strategy, planning to introduce two models each year for the next several years, and replacing its entire fleet within four years. As for the 41, a company representative said that about a third of the run will go to private owners, a third will be purchased by charter operators, and a third will go into charter-management programs.

Reinke Aluminum Twin Keel Designs Also, the particular design that intrigues me is a twin "bilge" keel design, which, apparently relies on water to fill the twin aluminum keels.
