You might be interested to know that there's a botter at our home sailing club. It's a great boat for the North Carolina estuaries & sounds. Nice! A Botter was used in the Northern part of the Netherlands, mainly in the Zuiderzee (now known as IJsselmeer). I live in Zeeland atm, and there another type of ship was used, named Hoogaars. http://www.visserman.net/fotos/HB3_big.jpg Cheers! Remco |

The Hoogaar looks like it's got less bluff a bow, more "point-y" and possibly faster. I wonder if the word Hoogaar comes from the same origin as the English word (used as name of type of vessel) Hooker. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
