In the English Channel, the Channel Islands offer numerous cruising opportunities and several stops highly appreciated by sailors. In this article, the Port Adhoc team presents the destination and how you too can explore it while sailing.
Have you chosen a berth or winter storage in Lelystad, the Netherlands? Then sooner or later, the question arises: how does your boat get there? Whether by water or by land, transferring a boat from Germany to Lelystad is entirely feasible, but it requires careful planning. Locks, bridges, clearance heights, radio requirements, trailer dimensions – all of this must be considered. And as so often, the rule applies here too: those who are well-prepared will arrive more relaxed.
Knowing your own boat is safely moored, always ready for a lovely weekend trip with family or friends, or for a spontaneous holiday – this is exactly the dream of many boat owners. Yet in Germany, this often remains wishful thinking: long waiting lists, high fees and overcrowded marinas make planning a test of patience and spoil the plans of many German sailors and motorboat owners.
Some boat owners understandably want everything available on site: plenty of space, solid expertise, extensive technical facilities and shipyard equipment. And that is exactly what Flevo Marina in Lelystad offers – a turnkey marina in the Netherlands that appeals to yacht owners thanks to its service and repair facilities.
