interesting boat from an architectural point-of-view - it looks as if it were designed to be a larger, older version of a open cabin cruiser, probably a 1920s-1930s wooden boat. -- HEMI - Powered, aka Jerry "You've obviously mistaken me for someone who gives a ****!" |

There are a lot of these ships in The Netherlands nowaday just for recreation, not for cargo. They are nice sloops but expensive, You can rent them at many places. I think you're right about the design, its very old and thats why ik like them cause they look still like real ships. -- Greetings Bouler (The Netherlands) |

I could not afford it, but beïng one of the biggest cattle transporters of The Netherlands he can, but its almost a 24 hour a day job so he deserves to get some nice recreation on the water.;-) -- Greetings Bouler (The Netherlands) |

I wasn't being critical of the design, just commenting that I thought it was interesting that the owner apparently spent a lot of money to make a modern boat look like a classic or antique boat. This might be compared to someone restoring a 1960s American muscle car to visual accuracy but including modern suspension, breaks, and electronics. -- HP, aka Jerry "You've obviously mistaken me for someone who gives a ****!" |

I did not feel it like critical, I just love this sloops, I think they never will disappear. Last sunday almost 20 of these kind of ships past my home when I was at home, sitting on my balcony looking to the ships passing by. The weather is perfect in The Netherlands to be on the water. The temperature is 77 degrees F. (made the conversion for you;-)and sometimes more. -- Greetings Bouler (The Netherlands) |
