Zonneboot

The Zonneboot (Dutch for Sun boat) is equipped with a large sunroof. If the sun suddenly breaks through, the roof will open within seconds, and in an unexpected shower, you will be comfortable and dry, with the possibility to switch on the heating. Ideal to enjoy the summer days but also very pleasant in the winter.

The Zonneboot is the sister of the saloon boat Admiral Heijn. In appearance equal to a beautiful mahogany saloon, with faceted windows, and classic details such as the teak deck. However, the layout of the Zonneboot is different, it has a more spacious seating area, and bar and is equipped with a toilet.

Of course, the Zonneboot sails sustainably and electrically, making it quiet and comfortable on the canals. We are happy to arrange the snacks and drinks, but it is also possible to bring your own. We charge a small fee for corkage money and cleaning costs.

The Zonneboot is the ideal saloon boat for Friday afternoon drinks with colleagues, to celebrate a birthday or anniversary, or just for a pleasant cruise with family and friends. With every occasion, no matter the weather, you’ll experience a wonderful boat tour!
