Lelystad, 09 March 2018 – Deetlef is the new skipper on the Auwe Neel, a sturdy clipper extremely well suited to being used for day trips and trips spanning several days with large groups. Deetlef much prefers sailing the two-masted vessel out onto the Wadden Sea, where the many options include spotting mudflats and seals. But he also knows some great anchorages around the IJsselmeer, such as Konijneneiland near Stavoren. An idyllic spot where, if we bring our own wood, we can build a fantastic campfire on the uninhabited island.

Since as far back as 2008 Joyce Dankers has been seeing to it that the end-to-end financial and operational process runs smoothly for every booking placed with NAUPAR. In her own words: ‘The sheer variety of my work means that I’ve been happy here for nigh on a decade now’.

Lelystad, 14 February 2018 - From the nautical Hanseatic city of Kampen you can sail swiftly out towards the IJsselmeer, Markermeer or the Frisian (Wadden) islands on the convivial, 40-metre-long clipper. The possibilities on and in the water are endless. Whether you’re keen to muck in and help hoist the sail or would prefer to relax and just enjoy being together with the group in an anchorage, anything’s possible on board the Hester. They do their utmost to give their guests an unforgettable experience each and every time, and strike the right balance between being active and relaxing.

Lelystad, 2 February 2018 – The comfortable, spacious clipper Allure is owned by captain Zippi. She’s crazy about sailing, is a great listener and prefers to decide where the sailing trip will head together with the group. Whether it’s a wonderful meandering trip across the IJsselmeer, the Markermeer or the Wadden Sea. At the end of the day she’s of the opinion that it’s not about the destination but much more importantly about everyone feeling at home and able to relax on board her convivial, 32-metre-long ship.

Lelystad, 29 December 2017 – NAUPAR proudly looks back on a successful 2017. New package holidays, Hanseatic Days going well, a great deal of progress on the Marker Wadden... And plenty more besides!

Lelystad, 18 December 2017 - From Enkhuizen you’ll sail straight onto the IJsselmeer or the Wadden Sea.

Lelystad, 8 November 2017 – Winter is right around the corner, but that’s not something we need to remind our captains of, as several ships have already undergone a (minor) metamorphosis and are now 100% prepared for the winter. These changes range from placing a heater aboard the Abel Tasman and patio heater on the deck of the Summertime to double glazing on the Pouwel Jonas. And many more changes!

Lelystad, 1 November 2017 - Since 2003, the sailing ship "Tsjerk Hiddes" has been owned by Captain Peter Hassing, an enthusiastic and passionate sailor who not only knows his ship in and out, but is very proud of this unique and luxuriously equipped stevenaak.

Lelystad, 12 September 2017 – Good news for birdwatchers! The new Marker Wadden has already proven to be a bird paradise and offers a safe place to brood to more than 2,000 breeding pairs. Natuurmonumenten (Society for the Preservation of Nature) is very pleased about this, as there are not only anenormous number of birds, but also species that rarely breed anywhere in the Netherlands anymore.
