  • Always sail at the right side of the water. Professional boats and tour boats always have priority on the water. Keep that in mind.
  • No loud music, pay attention to your surroundings.

How long does the battery last during a trip?
No worries. Our boats operate up to 10-12 hours -without charging- at an average use (60 AMP)! This means they will be rented out several times on a day. If for any reason the battery runs low on power the boat is equiped with a safety system and emergency power. The system will gradually lower the power to make sure you‘ll get back safely but in a very low pace (2km/h). If the boat suddenly stops operating you probably ‘hit’ a rope or plastic bag with the propellor. Unfortunately this is quite common when sailing through the canals. In any case just call us (+31(0)85-4019555) so we can help you out with some additional instructions on how to easily solve the problem together.

What to do in case of damage?
If you take the curves calmly, slow down in time, the risk of damage is extremely small (also be careful with the reverse direction near the edge – the propeller is very fragile!). The sloops do not sail fast, so the chance of real damage is not great. If it does happen – someone else can also be the cause – always call us (see contact page). Record the details of the counterparty. Also make a damage report with a situation sketch and according to you the cause of the problem.
