Once every year a group of sail and oar boats gather in the Netherlands. From wednesday evening till Sunday we make day trips, and sleep and eat on the mothership. More and more this becomes an International affair. We attract boats from France, Switzerland, and even the United Kingdom.
This year the weather was particularly hot. So there was lots of swimming, low wind sailing, and a last day of hard paddling and rowing under a very hot sun. After a wonderful four days, can we meet again soon?

Delightful, Koos. My grandfather on one side was Friesian and a sailor. As a child I used to listen to stories of his homeland and of other more exotic places where he weighed anchor in the world. Being in the U.S.A., I may never get to canoe sail that region, but I get to live it vicariously through your video exploits. 👍✌️

Leuk hoor. Zou graag meedoen 2024, maar heb geen boot. Is er wat te huur? Ervaren zeiler.

Huren genoeg in Friesland, probleem is de uitrusting voor roeien, maststrijken. Wordt lastig denk ik

Namens de Stichting Natuurlijk Varen (ik ben de route planner van de Dorestad Raid): de boot moet geschikt zijn om onder lage bruggen te gaan, over ondieptes kunnen, gemakkelijk ook over langere afstanden (10km+) met spierkracht voortbewogen kunnen worden (roeien of voor kano's peddelen). De mast moet gemakkelijk naar beneden kunnen, je moet snel kunnen reven, etc. Dat soort boten zijn eigenlijk niet te huur. Je zou een kijkje kunnen nemen op de website van de stichting onder het kopje te koop/te huur.
