WOW! Now I am even more excited to visit the Netherlands this fall. I can't wait to see the river boats.
The people that run.own these vessels must have a great deal of pride in doing so, all of these vessels look so clean and very well maintained. Fantastic to see these photos.
Your charts, your radar, your eyes and ears - if all 4 agree, you may proceed with caution.
Hi,
I sterted this to show how ships look like on the rivers, but now I realise that I AD TO THINK IN 3 cATEGORIES.
Dry freigt, Tanker and ships for sand.
Do you think to open new ones or to put other type of ships thru each other?
Jack
I think that 'Dutch inland freighters' will happily cover all the types of inland freighters, regardless of what the freight actually is or what type of vessel it is. So long as they travel the Dutch inland waterways i think this thread will cover them well.
That is my opinion, what do others think?
Your charts, your radar, your eyes and ears - if all 4 agree, you may proceed with caution.
Some of the vessels are different sizes. What are the size restrictions for inland vessels? I assume there are some major river/canal routes that can handle larger boats.
Yes there are several types of ships, different in length and tonnage and build for specific waterways. P.e. the Spits, a ship of 50 meter and a tonnage of about 600 ton and designed mainly for Southern Netherlands and Belgium waterways. But this years there are ships build with a length of 135 meter and a tonnage of 2000 ton
