After a quiet evening on board your Sigma 38 relaxing in your own cabin we will set off to cross the North Sea to Ijmuiden in the Netherlands. After a day in Ijmuiden we will sail along the North Sea Canal into Amsterdam where we can moor in the centre of this magnificent city. The next day we will enter the Markameer where we can explore towns like Edam and Hoorn where we can enjoy plentiful dutch hospitality and the history of this lowland nation.

After a few days in the Markameer we will make our way back ti Ijmuiden before the trip home that may take in a stop in Harwich or perhaps a trip down the dutch coast to Ostend before crossing back to the Thames.
