LAUWERSZEE

Sporty, comfortable, nautical

Multi-day tours: 20 persons

day trips: 36 persons

The Lauwerszee is a comfortable clipper with good sailing characteristics. The ship has a beautiful, nautical appearance, combined with all the comforts of today.


Sailing

The Lauwerszee is a wide clipper with a handy rig. The width provides a lot of space and good stability. So you don't have to worry about seasickness. By making a number of adjustments (such as extra winches) it is possible to sail the ship well even with a relatively small crew. For the sporty sailors there is still plenty to do and we also like to get out our extra sails.

Below deck

At the front of the ship is a cozy, spacious lounge with plenty of seating space.

Salon

Adjacent to the living room is a spacious, well-equipped, open kitchen. The kitchen has -among other things- a dishwasher and a 6-burner gas stove with a large electric oven

Cabins

The Lauwerszee has twenty sleeping places divided over seven cabins. All beds are fully made including duvets. There are three 4-person cabins and three 2-person cabins. All cabins have central heating, running water and a washbasin.

The Hope

The Lauwerszee was built as 'De Hoop'. Skipper Lambertus Cornelis Maasbach had the iron clipper ship 'De Hoop' built in 1915 for his youngest son Gradus Theodorus at the shipyard 'Boot te Vrijenban' in Delft. De Hoop was built according to a construction drawing from 1892. Based on this drawing, dozens of clippers have been built over the years. On 20 May 1915, the keel of De Hoop was laid. On 7 October, the ship was launched. At that time, it transported coal, sand and gravel.
