The Eersteeling is a beautiful two-masted hektjalk built in 1908. Since 1993 this ship has been active as a passenger ship and sails on the IJsselmeer, the Frisian lakes and the Wadden Sea. 

Experience a wonderful holiday on this holiday ship. If the sails are hoisted and the ship is on course, you can continue to actively sail along but you can also choose to do something else.

The teak deck invites you to close your eyes and enjoy the sun or dive into a good book. It is a stable ship that does not go extremely crooked. The benches on the middle deck and aft deck offer a nice view of the water. Naturally, the entire ship meets the latest safety requirements.

 

It is a very comfortable sailing ship with spacious cabins, an attractive saloon and a galley overlooking the water.
De Eersteeling has 20 sleeping places, divided over 8 cabins. There are 4 cabins for 2 persons. The 4 other cabins can accommodate 3 guests and are ideal for parents with a child. There is also heating throughout, space for luggage and a sink. The plumbing has been completely renovated, new toilets and new showers (with underfloor heating).

In the summer months the ship sails multi-day sailing trips from Harlingen. The skipper and crew can show you the most beautiful spots of the Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer.
Please note: the skipper does not have his own entrance to his/her private cabin on the aft deck, and will therefore occasionally walk through the day room.
