'Freja', our Trident Voyager 35 Sailboat is for Sale
by owner Anders Larsson

It's time to sell 'Freja', our 1980 Trident Voyager 35 pilothouse cruising yacht. We sailed her from Sweden and crossed the Atlantic in December 2022, and are currently in Martinique in the French West Indies.

'Freja', our 1980 Trident Voyager 35

The Voyager 35 is an English boat designed by Angus Primrose, who also designed several popular Moody sailboats in the 1970s and 80s. She has a full keel and a deck saloon.

She's strong, stable, safe and sails well in all conditions.

'Freja' went through a refit before we left Sweden and is fully equipped for cruising.

She's the perfect boat for a couple, but we've also cruised with four people onboard for long periods with ease.

Long keel and fully supported rudder

What is the Trident Voyager 35 sailboat like to sail?

Based on Published Design Ratios for the Trident Voyager 35:

Her Sail Area/Displacement Ratio of just 13.2 suggests that the Voyager 35 will need a stiff breeze to get her going. In light conditions, unless you've got plenty of time on your hands, motor-sailing may be the way to go.

Her Ballast/Displacement Ratio of 314 means that the Voyager 35 will stand up well to her canvas in a blow, helping her to power through the waves.

Her Displacement/Length Ratio of 314 tells us the Voyager 35 is clearly a heavy displacement cruising boat. You can load her down with all your cruising gear and equipment and it will hardly affect her waterline. Not an ideal choice for coastal sailing, but she'll come into her own on an offshore passage in testing conditions.
