Your canal boat

Carefree sailing without a boating license

You can sail with our boats on the Amsterdam canals and the Amstel. That’s very easy, even if you don’t have a boating license or experience.

Our boats are sturdy, reliable and easy to use. They are also not unnecessarily large and they do not sail faster than walking speed. This makes them ideally suited for carefree sailing.

You will always receive personal instruction from us. In a few minutes we will explain everything and show you everything you need to know before you get on the water.

Carefree sailing yourself - no boating license required

Completely open whisper boat

• nice for sun worshipers
• easy to get in and out
• better view

Enough space for 6 people

You can sail on our boats with a maximum of 6 people (including the person driving the boat). That is the maximum for the permit and insurance of our boats.

Even with a full occupancy, everyone is still seated comfortably and there is still enough room for some hand luggage. Or to take your pet with you.

Are you with more than 6 people? Then please rent an extra boat. Or leave your mother-in-law at home.

Quiet, emission-free and relaxed sailing

Relaxed sailing yourself; that is the purpose of our boats.

Thanks to the electric drive of your whisper boat, you will not be bothered by engine noise, loud vibrations or smelly exhaust fumes. You hear the engine quietly doing its work and the water around you gently rippling. You can understand each other well and gain a lot from your surroundings, whether that is the silence of the Amstel or the hustle and bustle of the center.

There are large batteries in the benches of your boat. We ensure that there is always sufficient power. So you never have to look for a gas station or a charging station along the way.

Pads and life jackets included

We always give you foam seats to sit on. These ensure that you don’t get cold buttocks in cool weather. And also that you don’t burn your buttocks in hot weather with bright sun.

We will also lend you free life jackets. We have them in three sizes: for toddlers, preschoolers and for adult non-swimmers. Do you need children’s vests? Please let us know in advance so that we can be sure we have enough for you.

Would you like an open boat, but no longer available?

When the weather is nice, most of us like to get some sun. Then it is best to rent a completely open sloop (without a canopy).

But the most beautiful days are of course also our busiest days. Then it may be that all our open boats have already been reserved. In that case, we recommend that you try it with our colleagues at Boats4rent Amsterdam. There you can rent the same type of whisper boat, with the same service and for the same rates as with us.

Boats4rent’s mooring is on the west side of the center, on the edge of the Jordaan.
