Hasselter barge built in 1910 especially for transport in peat bogs. In 1926, the boat was motorised and carried cargo until the end of the sixties. Equipped with a two-masted rigging, the `Deo Volente´has been sailing the IJsselmeer and the Waddenzee since 1972 as a charter boat.

The boat's shape and its sail surface area of 240m² make the `Deo Volente´a stable and fast vessel! The living area, completely renovated in 1997, comprises 2 levels. The lower level, with a fully equipped kitchen, also has 6 sleeping cabins with small seating areas, for a total of 18 persons. The upper level offers accommodation and eating facilities for all guests. A skylight in the ceiling and four large windows with views across the water create an open and light atmosphere below deck!

Extending your trip
Its possible for trips to be extended. Contact us for a tailored quote.

Alternative departure harbour
Its also possible to use a departure harbour other than the base harbours. If you do, you should take into account the vessels crossing time, which will either be charged for or form part of your trip itinerary. That charge is €60 per hour for vessels being prepared for trips of more than one day.

Bedding and towels
Trips of more than one day always include the provision of sheets, pillows and pillow cases. Towels can be hired on board for €4 each. You can arrange this with us up to three weeks before departure.

Cleaning
If the cleaning of the vessel after the trip is not included in the rental price (see specifications menu), you can choose to carry out the cleaning yourself or pay to have it done. You can pay the captain on board, or have it added it to the charge for services if you are paying for catering. Cleaning on Saturdays and Sundays is subject to a €20 supplement.
