That's interesting my youngest brother is working in "Yacht building"
at "Kuipers Woudsend", maybe you heard of that company.
He showed me very large and expensive yachts they were building for
Americans.


I've interviewd an employee of Kuipers Woudsend, and visited the yard (and
one of their yachts). So I'm familiar with the yard and their yachts. Nice
motoryachts! I'm more into sailing yachts though. I also interviewd
Huisman
Shipyards Vollenhove and visited the 'Athena' while it was still under
construction. That was quite impressive.

My father has very good contacts with Huisman, so I have been able to
visit
quite a lot of their ships and even sailed on Borkumriff III, during
seatrails. That was one of my moments.! Unfortunately, no digital camera's
were available then...

You can't have them all;-)
