The clipper 'Vriendschap' was launched in 1905. She carried cargo until 1983, initial only under sail and later under motor power. In 1985, the 'Vriendschap' was equipped with new rigging and completely converted into a comfortable passenger ship.
The 'Vriendschap' is the perfect ship for active sailors. As all the sails are hoisted by hand, guests can indulge themselves aboard this two-masted clipper. When the weather conditions are right, the extra sails can be hoisted to maximise your sailing enjoyment. The spacious saloon and comfortable cockpit ensure you will soon feel at home.
The skipper is more than happy to explain the finer points of navigating, and naturally you will be encouraged to take your place at the helm. Welcome aboard the 'Vriendschap'!
The skipper of de Vriendsschap received very good reviews from his guests over the past sailing season about, among other things, the general impression of the ship, contact with the skipper and the provision of information during the trip, and was therefore named Tophost. He received an average rating of 4.8 on a five-star scale from his guests.
