boat hire in Spakenburg · Curtevenne — 830ak (1982)

It was great! Gerdi and Artur are very friendly, nice, and communicative people. There was a lot of communication beforehand and on-site – and they were very proactive (with maps, ideas, and helpful tips). We'd love to come again :-)

We had a fantastic experience! What a great boat and very pleasant contact with the owner. It was our first time on the water, and Gerdi provided excellent explanations and guidance. We had a blast! Even the children, aged 11 and 15, had a blast sailing. If you have any questions, Gerdi is always happy to help! I would recommend this to everyone. The only thing is, you'll want to book again right away!

We really enjoyed our long weekend on the boat! Gerdi and Arthur were very pleasant to work with, and we received excellent guidance! We definitely recommend it 100%!

Thank you for this wonderful vacation experience. The super-friendly welcome and Artur's excellent introduction made everything seem so easy. The lovely town and the beautiful fishing villages are always worth a visit. Thank you so much – we'd love to come back. Angelika and Sigg

Gerdi and Arthur are fantastic owners. Always available, super friendly, and always helpful. The onboard briefing was detailed and understandable. We were ready to depart after 45 minutes. Of course, Arthur immediately sent us a nice photo of our departure.... Returning the boat was absolutely hassle-free. After a quick check, we were able to disembark. The owner is extremely relaxed, even though we were slightly delayed. Highly recommended!! About the boat itself: everything is there, everything as described. Stove with three burners, coffee maker including filter and ground coffee, tea, sugar, refrigerator with a small ice compartment, fresh water. The boat is in very good condition, but of course, not new! For people over 185 cm, it might be tight for sleeping. The only criticism is the size of the toilet. It is definitely NOT POSSIBLE to sit down AND close the door at the same time. Some knee is always in the way ?. So be sure to do your business in the harbor toilet

We enjoyed this boat very much with four (2 adults/2 children). Gerdi and Arthur are very friendly and communicate well and easily. Good explanation and possible support during our trip.

We had a great first holiday on a houseboat. The landlord explained everything wonderfully and was always available to answer questions during the holiday. We would come back anytime. Thank you for the great time!

The contact with Gerdi and Arthur was very friendly. We were welcomed and given instructions by Arthur. He explained everything really well and gave us tips for the routes. There is German-language marine literature and maps for the region on board. The boat is well maintained and, according to the owner, will be further modernized. There were two of us on the trip, but there would be enough space for four people. Conclusion: We have nothing to complain about. Good value for money.

Very comfortable boat, pleasant contact. It was just right for five people (2 adults, 3 children (5,7,12)) and we had a lovely week. We would gladly go back.

It was a wonderful holiday on a beautiful, small, not-so-new boat. Great weather, beautiful scenery and a super nice landlord (greetings to Arthur)! I'd love to come back again. Thanks for the great week!

We had a wonderful week with the best weather on this comfortable boat! Arthur was super helpful and friendly and even when we had a small accident with the boat at the lock, he remained calm and friendly and only worried that we should continue to enjoy our vacation! Thank you very much for that! He handles everything very easily and is available at any time. We really liked the area towards the southwest, we can particularly recommend the route from Muiden towards the south. There is a great harbor on the Spiegelsee and there are really charming houses/houseboats to look at along the canals, wonderful! We were on the boat with three children (16, 13, 9) and two adults and there was enough space, I imagine it would be very tight with six people and you can't be too tall for the on-board toilet either, but then there are the harbor toilets or the great outdoors? There are also small islands where you can simply moor overnight, of course without the harbor comfort. It was a really great little adventure for our family and we will definitely come back. Thank you!

Very friendly welcome, Arthur took a lot of time with the briefing, answered my questions in detail and was always available for later inquiries, friendly and very helpful. The boat was very easy to navigate, we had a great time in a beautiful area.

Unfortunately, we had to cut the holiday short because we both have physical problems and underestimated what was required for a boat trip. But I would like to stress that the reception and care on site was exceptionally good.

Had a wonderful time. Everything well arranged by the owner!

Thanks to Arthur for his welcome and his explanations which allowed us to spend a fantastic week on the water. A first experience and certainly not the last. Andrée, Philippe, Louise and Robin.

The boat was excellent to drive. Nothing was missing on board. Everything needed was there. We'd love to come back

Pleasant contact and quick help with questions. The boat is well equipped and handles well. Great sailing area with many beautiful berths and old Hanseatic towns.

We had a lovely time on the boat. The briefing was thorough and questions were answered. Lovely again.

Everything was perfect for us! We felt very comfortable on board! Arthur and Gerdi are very nice and helpful and were always available - it couldn't be better! ❤️-thank you!

We had a great week as a threesome (2 adults, 1 child). After a thorough briefing, Arthur was always available to answer any questions we had. The boat is equipped with everything you need. The bow thruster in particular simplifies maneuvering enormously. With regard to a case of damage caused by us, Arthur was relaxed and tried to keep the amount of damage as low as possible in our interest. We would rent the boat again.

Very nice and helpful landlord. It could be tight for 6 people. It was very beautiful and eventful days.

very well maintained boat. There were five of us. Super friendly reception from Arthur, who answered questions immediately or helped. Everything was explained well and understandably, taking over / handing over the boat was relaxed and the time was as agreed. Definitely recommendable!!!

I can definitely recommend everything perfect. We will be back definitely. Very dear and reliable host.

Very friendly landlord. We had great days on board. Tools for minor repairs were available. It was a great, eventful adventure holiday, which we would like to repeat. Greetings Jana and Dietmar from Sauerland ?
