Atmospheric clipper

The Actief is a historic two-masted clipper that makes beautiful sailing trips from Harlingen over the Waddenzee and IJsselmeer. The ship can be booked for both one-day and multi-day sailing trips. Perfect for individuals and groups.  

On deck you can enjoy the sea, sun and wind in the safe teak seat. The guesthouse below deck is surprisingly spacious and light, making everyone feel at home right away. There is a cozy sitting area and a fully equipped galley with beer tap, refrigerators and good cooking facilities.
The skipper and his mate would like to tell you everything about the ins and outs of the Actief. Of course, taking into account wind and tide, everything is possible in principle in consultation with the skipper. 

History of the ship

A sailing ship with a past. In 1899 the Johanna Christina was launched. Back then with one mast and 24 meters long. At the time, the ship sailed with cargo on the Dutch inland waterways. First sailing and later on the engine. The ship has been extended twice to a final 36 meters.

In 1990 the ship was converted into a modern, comfortable and sporty passenger sailing ship. Her name was changed to Active, so she always carries the memory of an active past in inland shipping.
