Welcome on board !
The Averechts is justly called the luxurious hotel among the traditional sailing ships. This ship (type: klipper) is originally built in 1892, and in 1995 totally rebuilt into an atmospheric and comfortable charter ship for sail loving guests.
This 37 meter long 2-mast ship offers sleeping place for 30 people and is suitable for day tours up to 50 people. Inside there is a comfortable common area to relax, have meals together, presentations, games etc. It is also very nice to be outside on deck or in the sociable sit compartment.

Where we sail........
From our very nice capital city Amsterdam, the Averechts sails over the IJsselmeer and Waddenzee. Together we decide the route.
Would you like to sail on a sandbank to let it fall dry and watch seals, or go to one of our islands, or to the nice villages around the IJsselmeer with their bars, restaurants and museums? Or would you like to anchor in the midst of the IJsselmeer to have a nice swim, or to party till late at night with loud music while bordering nobody? It is all possible!
Nice towns/villages/islands to visit are: Amsterdam, Volendam, the fort Pampus, The castle Muiden, Hoorn, Enkhuizen, Medemblik, Den Oever, Texel, Terschelling, Harlingen, Makkum, Stavoren, Lemmer, Urk, Lelystad, etc.
