Description

The Tjalk ''t Princen Eylandt' was built in 1905 on the orders of Simon de Waard from Oostermeer at the shipyard of Pieter Haickes van der Werff on the Noorderdwarsvaart in Drachten. He named the Tjalk 'Opeinde Oostermeer'. The ship was measured in 1912 and received number G1262N. It was used for transporting potatoes, stone, white sand, and coal. In 1965, the Tjalk was restored by Stofberg in Lemmer (later Leimuiden and Enkhuizen). The mast was inspected last winter and reinstalled in the spring of 2024. Over the past 4 years, the mast has been stored indoors, and the wind cracks have been treated with boiled linseed oil. This mast was newly made in 2005 (from one piece) by Ventis Scheepstimmerwerk in Enkhuizen. Additional information about the history can be found on the website www.skutsjehistorie.nl, as well as on https://www.ssrp.nl/stamboek/schepen/t-princen-eylandt-1641 Second owner: J.G. Visser from Leeuwarden (May 8, 1934) Third owner: Willem Vermaning from Meppel Third measurement: Leeuwarden, Sept. 20, 1936: t 29.837 tons Second name: 'Roerdomp' Fourth owner: S.J. Tichelaar from ? (Nov. 28, 1938) Fifth owner: F.H.C. Gobel from Amsterdam (1955-1992) Fourth name: ''t Princen Eylandt' Sixth owner: N.H. Groskamp from The Hague (1993-1999) Seventh owner: P. J. Stolp from Hillegom (from 2000) Note Nov. 28, 1938: The name of the tjalk has now been changed to 'Roerdomp' with J. Tichelaar as owner/skipper. J. Tichelaar bought the vessel from a certain W. Vermaning from Meppel. Tichelaar proved to the Leeuwarden freight commission on June 18, 1945, that he was the owner/holder/skipper. It was already established on Sept. 13, 1944, that he and his family (total of 3 people) permanently lived on board. During the German occupation, the Inland Shipping Decree 1941 required a 'permit for wild sailing with or without storage and for storage only...'. This was granted to Tichelaar on Sept. 3, 1943, for his 'Roerdomp' under no. A/A 415. After that, Tichelaar was a 'potato skipper' until after the liberation on May 4, 1945, to resume transporting stone, white sand, and coal on June 9, 1945. The last recorded cargo in the logbook is dated Sept. 19, 1945, from Leeuwarden to Akkerwoude: 15 tons of coal. The last official document was issued to Tichelaar on June 22, 1945, the first 100% Dutch document that ends with a historic sentence: 'After the liberation, the first journey was accepted on May 4, 1945, in Leeuwarden for a trip of potatoes from Leeuwarden to Idaard'. Registered with the Foundation for the Registration of Round and Flat-bottomed Yachts (SSRP), plaque 1641.
