7th November 2021 – We picked up the old vlet of Ster der Zee in Bruges. A small adventure taking a lot of time. The trip to Bruges went fluently. In Bruges we had to row and tow the boat by hand for a distance of about 1000 meters. Towing it back went fine till it was making to much water…. In the end we moored it safely near land. No longer our problem. We did our duty!

16th September 2021 – Instead of working, we made a small journey with the vlet. It had been a while…
17th July 2021 – Proud to have cleaned up the ship, and finally be able to invite my neighbours for a trip, we left for Stalhille bridge, turning went nicely and the ship makes a very good speed. My friends heard the engine was slowing down in revs, I never paid any attention to it. I was a little to enthusiastic….
The moment I paid attention to it, the engine switched off. We made it three kilometers from the start, a success 😉
Not at all, I was very much ashamed and could only find one cause. An electric powered driven fuel pump in combination with dead batteries.
We took the vlet Djoey to tow her back to Tordino and made a trip with the vlet to have another great evening…
The Baron will be towed to the yard!
12th July 2021 – We had some issues with the gearbox, or at least that is what we think. We made a small trip trying it out…
The reflections on the water were beautiful.
11th July 2021 – Today we had our big jump in Oudenburg, a small event where people jump in the water to promote the clean water. With the little boat of my neighbour we mounted the safety line and I was standby on the boat if something would go wrong…
In the evening we hand another small trip with the vlet…
10th July 2021 – To close a nice evening, we did a small trip with the little boat.
20th June 2021 – A nice evening and finally dry, time for a small trip on the Djoey…
31st January 2021 – The plans for moving Tordino to Oudenburg are getting more serious. For a few days now, water has been very high and very low. The Government managing the waterways claims that it is very undeep near the sides. It was the perfect moment to have a look and see it myself. Believe me, I don’t want to end up on these remaining walls from the early days…
6th December 2020 – It had been a long time since we made a trip on the Djoey. Busy times as we are both working on our own projects.
