a few questions

Most amazing sailing expirience: "After living and working on the Aagtje for 11 years we refitted her as a two mast tjalk meant for charter activities. Refitting had taken such a long time, but it was worth every minute of our time. The most amazing sailing experience was when the Aagtje was back in the water and we first turned of the engines. Now the ship did all the work, and finally there was peace and quiet."

Most amazing Tecla expirience: "The race of the classics was the second trip we made with the Tecla. On the way back from Lowestoft to IJmuiden at first we did not have any wind at all, but on the radio we heard other ships mention loads of wind coming our way. And within minutes the wind came and the Tecla picked up speed up till 9 knots, within 13 hours we where back in Holland. It almost seemed like the ship was singing with joy as she was cutting through the water."
