For a couple (both 75), it was quite a leap to rent a boat in June 2018 with their grandchildren, who couldn’t even tie a flat knot yet.
The boat, measuring 12.50 x 4 x 4 meters with a draft of 1.15 meters, was maintained to perfection; everything worked as it should.
I greatly appreciated the friendly interaction with the marina owners.
Maneuvering was made easy for us thanks to the three propellers on board. My moment of glory was sailing backward out of the old harbor of Langweer.
The kids were first taught by Grandma and Grandpa how to dock (long live the Marrekrite organization!) and set sail. Yes, that cleat knot has to be tied quickly. And don’t forget the diagonal line… And don’t forget to get on the boat in time…
We simply had a wonderful time—thank you very much.
