Pets.
In consulation, it is possible to take your pet on board some of our motoryachts. Costs are €30 a pet. We appreciate it very much, not to allow your pets on the benches (linery). The nails often cause holes and tears in the upholstery, this will be at the expense of your deposit / own risk.
Bring bicycles.
Our advice is to rent bikes in the places where you dock. Please note that the bicycles on board will limit the space on the deck and can be a nuisance during mooring, etc. This is not recommended, especially for beginners.
We have a few folding bicycles available. If you prefer to rent normal bicycles, it is best to contact www.vanraadfietsen.nl

You can park your vehicle with us free of charge. We would like to know well in advance if you are traveling with a camper or similar, so that we can take that into account.
