We did it again: all necessary shipspapers on board again. Every year a lot of inspectors visit the ship and controle all things.

We did a lot of maintenance you can’t see but is a lot of work. All things insight are done and now weare waiting for a bit more dry weather to paint outside. Luckely the underwatership is ready; we did it on the warf in november.

In the first spring week we wil fit all sails again with team Wageningen University. And than we will leave for Rotterdam; for the Race of the Classics to England!

Merry Xmas and a happy New Year to all!

Programm 2022 is ready

We have a lot of travels which you can join without knowledge of sailing.

A very good idea when you want to travel in the Baltic: we take over all the planning. You just have to help us with the sails when possible. And after that a nice dinner is waiting for you in a familiar atmosphere. Our home harbour from where we will leave is Kiel in Germany. From there we will sail into Danish harbours on the Danish Islands. See tours.

We had a great time on Oban last week. Thank you.

We had a great time on Oban last week. Thank you. My trust pilot review is below…

Lots of fun on the boat and interesting cycling, not too difficult. Friendly and very helpful crew. Well maintained boat, with clean and compact accommodation and nice food. 50/50 mix of sailing and biking determined by the prevailing winds. Danish locations and bike trips nice and quiet, German places more to see. Nice mix of European travellers with 2 from UK and 2 from Canada. Good cooperation when we had to share tasks. No deck chairs, it wasn’t that type of holiday! I would do it again, especially in the week preceding Kiel (sailing) Week, which was just starting.
