Sailing on the Dutch Shallows

A new rental company for sailing yachts focused on the Shallows! And. situated in the proximity of the Wetlands! In the home port Oostmahorn in the province of Friesland one can smell the sea. It's under half an our sailing to the sluice at Lauwersoog. When the outer sluice doors open up before your eyes, you can see Schiermonnikoog in the far distance . The salty smell and sounds of the sea get to you. Take a deep breath and enjoy it!! The discovery of the shallows starts here. You can do that with a choice out of three ship types: Drascombe Longboat Cruisers, Cornish Shrimpers or Cornish Crabbers.

All traditional looking ships with retractable centre plates with which one has been sailing in England for decades.

Whether you go canoeing in the Ardennes, skiing or langlauf in the snow, when you like nature and want to be active during your holidays, then you will be as sailor with Waddeninzicht at the right address.

For sailors who want to participate in this experience but who consider themselves to have insufficient experience in sailing on the Shallows, there is a possibility for flotilla -sailing. This way they can discover and explore the Waddenzee in company with other boats. An outstanding chance to convert a dream into reality.

The Shallows with her many faces, the Frisian islands with their beautiful nature. Surely you will enjoy everything these Wetlands have on offer.

The move to the Dutch shallows is not that far: You fly to Amsterdam, Rotterdam or from Aberdeen to Groningen. When you come for the weekend the best you can do is to rent a car and drive yourself to Oostmahorn. ( take care: Driving in The Netherlands is on the (w)right side ). When you come for a longer period there is also a possibility to take a train and consult "Waddeninzicht" for the best travel plan. Perhaps we can arrange for you to be picked up from somewhere.

When you come with your own car to The Netherlands there are many possibilities by ferry and the Chunnel. Your savings on the ferry costs for not taking along your own boat and trailer to this probably unknown territory can offset a large chunk of the rental cost for one of our ships.
