Sailing ship description

This sailboat rental was built in 1909 to transport sand and gravel. During the late 70s the ship was transformed into a sailing vessel which could hold guests.The width is 5,7 meters and the depth is 1,35 meter, making it a pleasant and stable ship. During the trip you can help sailing - there is always enough to do for those who want to be a real sailor - as well as relaxing and enjoying the scenery with a drink at hand.

About the area
Sailing with the charter Adventure is very well to be combined with a visit to this wonderful city. Just some idea's to get the inspiration flowing.
The Rijksmuseum, One of Amsterdam's most popular attractions and certainly its most important art repository. The Rijksmuseum was founded in 1809 to house the country's huge collection of rare art and antiquities and boasts some of the greatest works of art.
On the Prinsengracht, the Anne Frank Museum is dedicated to the all-too-short life of one of the world's best-known Holocaust victims. In the actual home in which Anne's family hid for much of WWII and where she wrote her famous diary.
A must-visit for art fans and historians, the spectacular Van Gogh Museum has been one of Amsterdam's top attractions since it opened in 1972.
