winterroute
Experience the winter in Friesland, on board of a motoryacht. The winter route is an addition of our "normal" route suggestions, which can be sailed in the season with our motoryachts. Because our yachts have a very low vertical (2.40 m) we offer usually the possibility to sail in the winter also with a yacht. From 01. of November till the end of March the bridge opening times are strongly reduced in Friesland. The bridges are only served on order. Due to the low passage height of our motoryachts you have still a large sailing area in Friesland. We prepared a varied route for you which can be sailed also in the winter.

The places, which we recommend
for overnight accomodation are also in the winter animated, that
means business and also restaurants are opened. Differently with
our normal routes you must adhere to the prepared route and keep
also the ports, which we indicate for overnight accomodation. The
route you see on the map left.

SIMMERSKIP
950 AK for 4 ½ persons
