This ship used to be named ‘De Almere’ Thanks to its length of over 40 meters the Novel’s three-mast rig does it justice, even when it sets course high-to-the-wind.
Until 1993, this ship transported freight, mainly in the inland waterways of Belgium and the south of the Netherlands. After that, the Novel was converted into a charter ship.
The ship is equipped with a cosy passenger accommodation, which includes, among other things, a semi-open kitchen and playfully decorated dayroom. There is plenty of room to walk and sit on deck. Sun lovers can enjoy the sun to their heart’s content on top of the cabin roof.
The interior was fully renovated during the winter of 2007/2008. A lot of attention was paid to the handling of the sails. Shipper:

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 vessel?s 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.
