Anne-Margaretha

Go to bookings and prices The dream of Heinz Wutschke and Greet Dekker to sail the oceans with their own ship became true when they built The Anne-Margaretha. Far away from everyday commotion you experience the special peace & quiet of sailing the ocean. Dolphins skimming along the bow are no exception! Beautiful sunsets, tropical destinations; you can have it all with the Anne-Margaretha. This ship doesn't participate in the Tall Ships' Races 2008, but is currently on a world tour with Antarctica and Panama as destinations. In the meantime the ship sails through the Caribbean and Azores back to the Netherlands and you can join in.

Accommodation

The ship has a capacity of 12 people and you can choose out of six two-person cabins, equipped with a private washbasin with warm and cold water. The for-part of the ship has four cabins, two communal showers and two lavatories. Beside that there are two middle cabins which each have a private shower and lavatory. The dayroom is fitted with all modern conveniences and this is where you eat together. Furthermore there are many possibilities to relax in the spacious steering cabin or the pleasant saloon that has a great music installation and library.

The gloomy mood of our first mile on the way to `The Battle of DrakeŽ is suddenly interrupted when Klaas yells out `Whale off the starboard bow!”

All the crew reacts promptly and even de masts bend over to starboard to see what’s going on. The goodbye-to-Antarctica sadness prompts everybody to feast their eyes on this last antarctic treat.

Somebody somewhere must have thrown a small fortune in the whale-machine. We get to see four whales playing together in a quarter of a mile circle around Europa. Every lack of a diving whale tail in any camera is made good.

The four are toying with us: disappearing and surface right next to our ship, swim under the ship from port to starboard, wave a white fin at us, demonstrate skills in backstroke… Antarctica does not let us go yet.

A ship full of people applauds the whale-show and is two bits less sad for the moment.
