Sailing with skipper

Sailing with an experienced skipper 

Group outings for small and large groups (2 to 222 people)

If you don’t have any sailing experience yourself, but would like to enjoy the water from a sailboat, sailing with a skipper is highly recommended.
Depending on the wind, you can, for example, sail to one of the beautiful harbor towns on the IJsselmeer. Think of Enkhuizen, Volendam, Monnickendam, Edam, Amsterdam, or the island of Marken. During the trip you will receive sailing lessons in the way you want. Do you want to learn sailing technically? or do you want to learn more about meteo and weather influences? The sailing trip is completed as you wish.

Then you can go ashore to do something fun or have a nice lunch, after which we sail back to one of our home ports in Medemblik or Enkhuizen.
Of course you can also just enjoy sailing without a destination.

Sailing day with skipper to Marker Wadden

Super fun is a day at the Marker Wadden from Enkhuizen on our luxury two-master for 2 to 10 people. The start and finish harbor location is the outer harbor of Enkhuizen.

The skippers and the sailing

Our skippers are highly certified, very experienced and social and ensure that you have a great day together.

They can teach you the intricacies of sailing if you wish. But of course you can also simply enjoy the experience of being on the water :).
