Tjalk Van Der Werf

The Tjalk boats are typical vessels of Dutch naval architecture. Their rounded shapes and the presence of lateral keels are the main characteristics of Tjalk.

A traditional flat-bottomed sailing cargo boat from the Netherlands. Steel hull with rounded shape, riveted, with a wooden mast fixed on an axis allowing it to be lowered quickly to reduce air draft when navigating rivers and canals. Square rigging, approximately 15m wooden mast as well as the boom.

This Tjalk has been converted into a livable cruising boat. Excellent comfort on board. Sleeping arrangements for 5 people with shower. Electric toilet. Assistance to navigation with Vetus 5.7kg bow thruster plus remote control. Fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, oven, cooking hob, oven...).
