About this boat

Escape the hustle and bustle? Enjoy a wonderful *all-in* boating vacation on our authentic Dutch motorboat of almost 11 meters. This ship is characterized by the extra steering wheel outside, which allows you to sit in the sun while steering. Furthermore, there is a large and closed cockpit, where there is plenty of room to sit together. You will find a lot of round finished and high gloss lacquered wood, which gives a luxurious feeling. The 2 separate bedrooms provide private space for eg. children and parents.

Where can you go?
You first sail for an hour on the beautiful river Eem, after which you can explore the Randmeren (Drontermeer, Gooimeer, Eemmeer, Nijkerkernauw, Nuldernauw, Veluwemeer, Wolderwijd).

All ports in the province of Utrecht, Flevoland, Gelderland, Brabant and Overijssel are easy to reach. So within a few hours you are already in Almere, Amersfoort, Baarn, Dronten, Eemnes, Bunschoten, De Eemhof, Elburg, Harderwijk, Hilversum, Huizen, Lelystad, Loosdrecht, Muiden, Muiderberg, Naarden, Nijkerk, Spakenburg, Strand Horst, Strand Nulde and Zeewolde.

Out and about for longer? Then continue to sail to the picturesque Vecht (with villages like Weesp, Breukelen, Nigtevecht, Nederhorst den Berg, Loosdrecht, Vreeland, Loenen and Maarssen) and the IJssel / Zwarte Water (with the old cities Zwolle, Hasselt, Kampen, Zwartsluis, Vollenhove, Blokzijl, Genemuiden and Deventer).

Or rent a ship for several weeks and discover the Weerribben, Overijssel and even Drenthe, Groningen, Friesland, North & South Holland and Zeeland. You then sail for example to cities like Haarlem, Edam, Enkhuizen, Hoorn, Medemblik and Volendam!

Spend the night in a cozy harbor or romantically in nature. Can you already picture it, away from all worries and relax on the water aboard our cozy motor cruiser?
