A sailing holiday with a sloop. I converted my sloop, an Albatros 21, into a camping sloop with standing height. Second battery for the refrigerators, LED lighting and a shore power connection installed, all done by myself. A large bed with thick pillows and a topper. You want your wife to continue to enjoy it, so make sure there is sufficient comfort. You can read how I did all that on my website. www. boehlee.nl. This trip goes from Leiden to Weesp and via the Nieuwe Meer through Amsterdam to Monnickendam, Purmerend, Uitgeest, Haarlem back to Leiden. You can get almost anywhere with a sloop through nice little ditches such as in Abcoude where your boat may not be wider than 2.5m. I hope you will keep me informed about what you think of the film and that you will pluck up the courage to also make such beautiful trips. Marinas are so beautiful and clean these days that you do not have to leave it for that. Hotel on the way often a problem you don't know where you are on that day, or your sloop can also be there. Plus a marina is of course much safer to store your boat. Kind regards Hans Boehlee
