Waterman

The Waterman is a fast clipper barge suitable for small to medium-sized groups. A beautiful sailing trip on the IJsselmeer, the Wadden Sea or the Markermeer; with the Waterman it will be an experience you will never forget. You can even hire this sporty clipper-barge for a sailing competition, because with her 320 m2 sail she can make considerable speed.

Enjoyment on deck

The Waterman's deck is designed for enjoyment. There is plenty of room for everyone, so the whole party can relax and admire the panoramic views. During a sailing trip, there is plenty of opportunity to help out on board, but there is also always plenty of time to catch up with each other, take the best photos, listen to the sounds of the wind and water and marvel at the twinkling stars in the evening.

The dayroom and kitchen: fully equipped

Waterman's dayroom is spacious, authentic and cosy. Here you can chat about the day, make plans for the coming days, or just relax after a day on the water. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare your own meals, but you can of course also moor in a cosy harbour town for a bite to eat!

Staying overnight on the Waterman

In the comfortable cabins of the Waterman, you are sure to fall asleep to the gentle swell of the water. Before you go to sleep, you can enjoy the stars on deck, and the gentle lapping of the water will immediately give you a relaxed holiday feeling.
