Sporty relaxation
Do you have sailing experience and want to explore the Veerse Meer in a safe way? You should definitely rent a sailboat (type Valk) at Sailing School Het Veerse Gat. From the harbour you can easily reach the Veerse Meer, an unique water sports area with its old harbours islands with plenty of jetties, crooks, salt marshes and overgrown sandbars. The Veerse Meer offers a fantastic view of the old city Veere!
The Valk
A Valk is a comfortable polyester sailboat with a spacious tub and a sail surface of approx. 16m2. Partly due to its stability and spacious, deep tub the Valk is a good and safe choice. Our Valk sailboats are equipped with a roll-jib. The boat is suitable for 4 persons. More passengers per boat is not recommended for safety reasons.
Included in the equipment:
- Life jackets for all passengers
- A map of the Veerse Meer
- (fixed) mooring lines
- Fenders
- A mop
- Two paddles
- A large watertight barrel
Attention: Our boats don’t have an outboard motor. Sufficient sailing experience (especially departing and mooring) is required.
It is possible to rent a sailboat in combination with a hiker’s cabin/apartment.
You can also rent a sailboat inclusive of skipper (in consultation). For more information, please contact us without obligations.
