Flat-bottomed ships on the Baltic Sea? Don’t they belong in the Ijsselmeer? However, the robust, seaworthy flat-bottomed ships were already being used as cargo ships in Scandinavia in the first half of the 20th century. The shallow draught of the Pegasus is ideal for exploring shallow coastal areas and still guarantees a high degree of stability in rough seas. Ideal for a trip to the Danish South Sea or along the German Baltic coast.
If you want to be introduced to sailing, this is the right trip for you. On this short sailing trip, you’ll get a taste of what it’s like to let the wind take you to your destination. You will experience what life is like on a traditional sailing ship and all that is involved. Together with the captain and sailor, you will hoist the sails, participate in sailing maneuvers and haul in the sails just before port. This gives you the chance to be an active part of the crew and learn more about traditional sailing.
While sailing, there is also plenty of time to lie on deck and rest, enjoy, read, chat, peel potatoes, play games, hear the crew out endlessly, steer the ship (under supervision), practise knots, knit, and, and, and…
The pantry is richly stocked with everything needed for a real barbecue. Meat from the local butcher is also a must, of course! But don’t worry, vegetarians are also catered for. So we will have a delicious meal and the harbour where we barbecue is perfect for a stroll around.
