NL - (Friesland and IJsselmeer] Barges - file 1 of 6 barges-1.jpg
 

Various shots of tradtional dutch sailing vessels. Picture 1 and 2 were taken near Eernewoude, in Friesland. The other pictures were taken sailing on the IJsselmeer.

Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me when I saw the fishing vessel in picture 6 anchored against a beautufull sunset. We have to make do with this one, which I like as well.

Picture 4 is one of my favorites.

Anyway, enjoy! As my computer is working again I'll try to be posting some more.

Regards,

Jeroen

Thanks very much Jeroen, you let me feel my roots again;-)
If I'm not mistaken the fishingvessel is a "Botter".
Not many fisherman are fishing for a living with these ships anymore.
An uncle of mine, not among the living anymore was fishing with his brothers
on a botter on the old Zuiderzee.
I enjoyed his storys very much.
Thanks for bringing up the memories.
