Where it all began

The history of the Rode Swan goes way back. This clipper was built in Rotterdam in 1880, then loaded to the Rhine. Also against the flows. Hence, that is why the Rode Swan is a beautiful streamlined hull, which makes her very fast! Moreover the ship originally was called different: Adriane Dirkje (1921). In 1955 Adriane was renamed to Fredrick after a hefty restoration. It ' only ' began sailing as a passenger ship under the name Mare Marieke in 1994 and now sails as Rode Swan.
