Amazing Private Luxury Boat Accommodation

Fantastic experience! It was a very cool and memorable to stay on the boat. The location is nice, just a bus or tram ride from the city center. There is a grocery store very close by. The owners are helpful with questions you have about the boat. ”

Amsterdam adventure

A very friendly landlord of a stylish historic boat. Only the sleeping mattresses and the upholstery on the dinette benches could use replacing. Otherwise, everything went perfectly: reliable and flexible arrangements, a well-equipped, large kitchen, and plenty of space in the common room for cozy game nights. ”

Navigating the Waters of Time: Sailing Ships of Indonesia

Navigating the Waters of Time: Sailing Ships of Indonesia I. Origin of Indonesian Sailing Ships The maritime history of Indonesia is vast and complex, dating back thousands of years. This archipelago, consisting of over 17,000 islands, has always been deeply connected to the sea.

Among the most iconic of Indonesian ships is the 'pinisi', a traditional two-masted sailing ship.
