Found her Leeuwaarden registration in the references you supplied "177B 1938". Good luck and even more so good sailing whe complete. We are sure you will enjoy it as much as we have.

Yes, the boat featured in the video is named Nieuwe Zorg, as were some four dozen of the 870 iron and steel skûtsjes built a century or so ago. However, the capsizing skûtsje was built in 1905 by Draaisma in Franking; ours was built in 1908 by Wildschut in Gaastmeer. It is 17.09 metres long, 0.71 longer than ours, but at 3.35 metres beam, it is 0.09 metre narrower than ours Her slightly shallower hold of 1.09 metres gives her a measurement of 28 tons, while ours is 31.971 tons.Zonder Zorghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05574972773270929030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7216401539682760124.post-61165305059071089622012-11-15T19:23:01.367-08:002012-11-15T19:23:01.367-08:00There is a video on youtube of what looks like Nie...There is a video on youtube of what looks like Nieuwe Zorg capsizing in a race...here is a link<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=TqneuY-hVMkGarynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7216401539682760124.post-18066796531946817512012-09-12T07:06:27.006-07:002012-09-12T07:06:27.006-07:00Heh...a clog in the works.

Makes servicing and canal travel easier and certainly cheaper and faster than waiting for a guy to work a crane.Rhyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00598445145507204424noreply@blogger.com
