“We exchanged our vows while the sails were full and Amsterdam-Noord slid past. Skipper Bram Hoekstra timed it so the sun was setting the exact moment we said yes.”
“An hour under sail is quite long if you're not used to boats, but the hold below deck was genuinely warm and cosy for dinner. The cook actually cooked, not just reheated, and you can taste the difference.”
“My husband didn't want to sail because of motion sickness, so we chose the non-sailing version. Nobody missed anything, the clipper still looked impressive at the quay with those masts.”
