Description

Wooden Boeier, ready to sail, well maintained One of the last sailing authentic wooden boeiers, built in 1908 and well maintained. A robust vessel, heavily constructed from 9,000 kg of oak, rigged and simply outfitted. The rugged appearance of this boeier stems from its relatively wide beam and comparatively high bow and stern. Seven continuous hull planks converge into a substantial beautiful sheer. The mooring is a shiphouse in Grou, floating on the water, out of the sun. Thanks to the counterweight and hatches, the mast can be easily lowered by one person, allowing for passage under bridges as low as 200 cm. The cozy cabin gives a dollhouse feel and does not offer standing height. Cooking while seated, sleeping comfortably, and literally crawling out of bed in the morning. An ideal ship for excursions, grounding on the mudflats, or simply spending a day or weekend. Extensively restored and renewed since 2010, including: deck beams, deck, side decks, mast tube, locker boards, side decks, starboard bulwark, water tank, port sheer strake & bulwark, repairs to the hulls, deck cover, Garmin plotter, new jib, anchor, batteries. A comprehensive digital archive is available with photos, invoices etc. Additionally (historical) documentation is available. Registered in the pedigree under category A plaque number 45 and in the register of sailing heritage Netherlands under number 1384. Extensively described in Vermeer’s book.
