Mile building from Laboe (D) to Franeker (NL) aboard the classic yacht Quadra

Sailing at sea offers a unique combination of excitement, relaxation and connection with nature. You experience the freedom that the open sea gives, the power of the wind and how the calm of the water influences us. Are you drawn to the somewhat rougher North Sea? Building miles and keeping watch at night? Then sail with us on one of our mile-building voyages across the North Sea.

Mile building from Laboe to Franeker

In autumn you can join a mile-building trip across the North Sea from Laboe in Germany to Franeker in the Netherlands. First we travel under engine through the Kiel Canal. During this offshore sailing voyage we also try to pay a visit to Helgoland. This charming rocky island is characterised by steep red cliffs, diverse bird colonies and is famous for its 47-metre-high rock stack "Lange Anna". Terschelling is naturally also on the itinerary. Here you can visit the atmospheric village, or take a walk or cycle tour through the dune and woodland landscape. Which other harbours we visit depends on wind, weather and tides.

During our mile-building trips, the focus is on sailing and covering greater distances. This can also mean sailing through the night, for which watches are arranged. Alongside the sailing activities, however, you also have time to relax, read, swim or explore ashore.
Being out in the fresh air all day invariably creates a healthy appetite. That's why our ship's cook spoils us daily with a hearty breakfast as well as a balanced lunch and delicious dinner.
You will be accommodated in a twin cabin. Bed linen and towels are provided.
