About Sailingcharter Bonte Piet

The steilsteven Bonte Piet, one of the very last sailing cargo boats, was built in 1926 in Hogezand. At that time she carried mainly sugar beet and other agricultural products from the north of the Netherlands to the Zaan area and to Amsterdam.At the end of her working life she was converted to a sail charter ship.

The ship is suitable for groups up to 12 people, sailing the Wadden Sea, IJsselmeer and inland waterways. The guest accommodation is spacious and airy, the galley fully equipped. There is hot and cold water, a shower and a toilet, and 24volt electricity.
