Sailing in late summer and exploring the Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer – is that something for you? A group from Germany warmly invites you to be part of this unique adventure! Aboard a classic flat-bottomed ship, the proud two-master Aagtje, participants glide through the fascinating island world of the Dutch waters.

Sailing in late summer and exploring the Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer – is that something for you? The group, consisting of eight sailing enthusiasts between 50 and 60 years old, is still looking for eight additional fellow sailors who want to experience an unforgettable time on the water. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a beginner – everyone is welcome here and actively takes part in life on board. Besides the sailing itself, there is also time to explore the Wadden Islands and/or charming Dutch harbor towns.

On board, the participants jointly take care of their well-being. Food and drinks are organized by the group itself, and everyone contributes a small amount (the onboard cash). This means fresh meals that are prepared and enjoyed together in a pleasant atmosphere — a true community experience.

Anyone who would like to feel the wind in the sails and discover the beauty of the Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer in good company is warmly invited to get in touch and join this sailing adventure. The group looks forward to welcoming new sailors!

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. The shared cabins are usually assigned based on gender.

Exceptions:

  • On the Belle Amie and the Seatrips yachts, there are sometimes mixed-gender cabins as well.
  • There are no shared cabins on the Sir Robert. Are you travelling alone? Then you should book a single cabin.

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. On some ships, the menu can also be adapted for vegans. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
