Layout of the ship
Standing on the deck you will feel like a real seaman or -woman for sure. There is lots of space to sit back and relax, enjoy an amazing time with your beloved ones while you sail the waves. Being outside when sailing is just splendid, but there are more great places aboard.

The Grote- or Sint-Nicolaaskerk is a Gothic building in use by the local Protestant community. The tower is of a late Romanesque style. Every evening at 9 pm the clock in the tower rings; this has been a practice from the time that had city gates.
