5 pictures showing a skutsje (or barge) tacking. Enjoy, Regards, First time I've ever seen a sailing barge! The kind I'm used to seeing are large, flat-bottomed floating cargo carriers either towed or pushed with a tugboat. -- HP, aka Jerry "You've obviously mistaken me for someone who gives a ****!" |

Now used mostly for chartering (groups) and sometimes to race (although they tend to be tuned up a little for the latter..) Regards, Jeroen |

Thats the new time Hemi, in the early years there were no tugs nor motors on the ship, all was done by sail and in canals some had a horse to pull the ship and the poor guys had to pull themselves. Here a picture I scanned from a newspaper. A horse pulling the ship home in the river thats behind my place. -- Greetings Bouler (The Netherlands) |

Looks very similar to what we called "canal boats" during the 18th and 19th Century attempts at water commerce which was eventually replaced by both steam boats and the "Iron Horse". Thanks for the picture! -- HEMI - Powered, aka Jerry "You've obviously mistaken me for someone who gives a ****!" |

Thanks for the picture! Thats wat happened here too, but when the ships could sail they sailed in times their were no engines. It even was so that these ships having a steam-engine they sailed when there was wind to save coal. Wind is free;-) -- Greetings Bouler (The Netherlands) |
