History
The Lemsteraak VLIELAND is registered in the German "Seeschiffsregister" and as historical maritime cultural object
of the highest category A in the Dutch Register of Sailing Monuments. SSRP Stamboek Plaquette Nr. 84!
The VLIELAND, one of the oldest large Dutch Lemsteraken, was built in 1909 in open
fisherman's version for the Enkhuizen fisherman jan Goos and already in 1914 sold by him as "Pleasure vessel".
Before that he was one of the first charter skippers to sail with paying guests from Amsterdam on the then still open
Zuiderzee. The VLIELAND can thus be considered the "baker's mate" of the brown fleet.
Then in the 1920s the VLIELAND was converted into her present form as a yacht. The
interior paneling of the deck cabin, the aft decks on either side and the saloon still retain most of the
original interior from this era, including valuable and very beautiful stained glass windows in oak frames,
oak and ebony paneling, and oak parquet with ebony trim.
In the 1930s and 1940s, the VLIELAND was part of the fleet of the Koninklijke Jachtclub Muiden
(KNZRV) and even went seal hunting with the great-grandfather of the current king (Prince Hendrik). After that
the VLIELAND was a welcome participant in numerous regattas with her Enkhuizer owner family (e.g. 2nd
prize Flevo Race 1960)
So it is also a piece of Dutch yachting history that you bring into your home with this Aak.

The boat has two enclosed aft cabins with one berth each approx. 1.10 x 2.40 m (1-2 pers), an

The L-shaped settee in the saloon can be converted into another double bed of 1.60 x 2.00 meters.
In the connecting corridor between the salon and the forecastle is the galley with sink, stove and oven.
