Why with a skipper

Why with a skipper

In Alphen aan den Rijn there are several places to hire a boat and sail yourself. We do it differently: with us the skipper is included. No boating licence, no deposit, no route planning — you step aboard and it's handled.

That's the difference between hiring a boat and having a day out. The skipper knows the bridges, the shortcuts and the spots where the water is clean enough to swim. You sit with your party instead of behind the wheel.

  • No licence needed
  • No deposit
  • Route by request
  • Swim stop on open water

Jan van Gent

We sail a Jan van Gent — the sloop Dutch shipyards built their name on. 10.35 metres long, 3.30 wide, nearly silent, and fully equipped: two fridges, heated shower, swim ladder, bluetooth sound system and a cabin with galley.

Where you sail

Where you sail

From the Raadhuisstraat in the centre of Alphen you sail straight onto the Oude Rijn. Within twenty minutes you're in the Green Heart: the Does, the Wijde Aa, the Braassemermeer — and with more time, the Kaag lakes or the Westeinderplassen.
