Quadra

On board the schooner Quadra, you will experience an unforgettable sailing holiday in some of the most beautiful sailing areas in the world. Thanks to the personal and informal service of André and Evelien, the owners of the Quadra, you will quickly feel completely at home on board

In 2026, the Quadra will sail its first season in the Baltic Sea.

Elegant, stable, and easy to sail

The classic sailing yacht Quadra is a two-masted schooner, built based on the Lelanta II by the renowned American naval architect John Alden. His designs are known not only for their elegance and grace but also for their excellent stability. Moreover, the ship is easy to sail with a small crew.

With her classic lines, the Quadra is a beautiful sailing ship to behold. Like her original John Alden sister ships, she is fast, easy to handle, and very comfortable. Naturally, she is equipped with all modern comfort and safety features.

Spacious, bright, and comfortable

The interior of the Quadra is exceptionally spacious, bright, and inviting for a sailing yacht, featuring many beautiful oak and mahogany accents. Everything was newly fitted with great care and craftsmanship in 2025.

From the doghouse with its cozy seating area, you walk straight down. On either side are the double cabins, leading into the inviting salon with an open galley

The Quadra accommodates up to six guests and four crew members, creating a personal and intimate atmosphere. Guests sleep in double cabins with a double bed and private bathroom, or in a double cabin with bunk beds and shared facilities down the hall

Guest Accommodation

There are 3 double cabins:

  • 2 cabins with a double bed and private shower and toilet
  • 1 double cabin with bunk beds and a shared shower and toilet down the hall
  • Each cabin has a fixed washbasin, central heating, and mechanical ventilation.
  • Each cabin is equipped with bed linen, towels, soap, shower gel, and shampoo.
  • Bathrobes are provided for those using the shared shower down the hall.
  • In addition, there are 2 cabins on board for the crew

What does full board include?

A chef prepares all meals on board every day:

  • A hearty breakfast with bread rolls and various toppings (cheese, cold cuts), yogurt with muesli, and occasionally a delicious egg dish.
  • A tasty lunch consisting of, for example, freshly made soup with sandwiches or wraps, a light pasta dish, or a chili con/sin carne.
  • A hot dinner in the evening. Some days it will be a one-pot dish, while on other days it will be a full meal with starter and dessert.

On the day of boarding, a dinner is also provided on board.

Please note that all the above dishes are just examples. Our chef’s creativity is limitless. All our meals are always freshly prepared, and dietary preferences (vegetarian/vegan), diets, and allergies are taken into account. In addition, there is always fruit, and snacks such as cookies, cake, or appetizers are regularly provided.

History of the Quadra

The Quadra was built in the late 1980s at a German shipyard. Despite its age, the vessel was never completed and has never sailed, so there is little history to tell.

The first owner had it built based on the design of the Lelanta II by John Alden but never went beyond completing the hull. The second owner wanted to turn it into a motorsailer and shortened the vessel, significantly reducing the keel as well. In 2012, the hull was sold to a Dutch owner, who intended to restore it as a sailing ship, but only made modifications to the superstructures.

In 2020, the current owners purchased the hull to bring the original classic sailing yacht, built according to the Lelanta II design, back to life. Construction began in the autumn of 2021 and is expected to continue until the autumn of 2025. From 2026, you will be able to enjoy beautiful and exciting sailing trips on the Quadra.
