Clipper De Groninger
The Groninger is a seaworthy clipper from 1919. The ship sailed as a small freighter on the German Wadden until 1995, after which it was completely converted into a sailing charter ship. The ship has four sails: a mizzen, mainsail, jib and jib. All sails are made of dacron and are hoisted by hand. Because of its flat bottom, the ship has excellent dry running capability.
Because of the high railing and excellent state of maintenance, De Groninger is a very safe ship, also for children. The crew is competent and remains calm and friendly under all circumstances.

Arjan van Dijk is the enthusiastic skipper of the Groninger. He is an experienced coach/trainer and he also provides team building and training on board for education, (international) companies and institutions.
For whom?
