Evening sailing
After a busy day, at school or at work, you and your friends, colleagues or family can relax aboard the Orion. Sailing in the evening is a unique experience, often with beautiful sunsets and romantic moonlight mirrored in the water.
No time during the day?
A sailing trip is a wonderful way to spend time with friends, family or co-workers, but setting a date to accommodate everyone can be difficult. At Egasail we are often busy during the day as well, which is why we offer sailing trips in the evenings.
Evening arrangements
Egasail organises evening sailing trips starting at our home port Monnickendam from 18.00. Several other ports are within reach, such as Marken, Volendam and Edam.

Evening sailing trip; an example
Below is an example of a lovely evening’s sailing trip! Would you like to be active and participate in the sailing? Interested beginners can operate the helm, stays, and lines under guidance; experienced sailors can assist the crew with navigation and more complicated manoeuvres. Everyone can find shelter in our luxury saloon if the weather doesn’t cooperate. Safety is paramount at Egasail, so if the weather turns stormy we can trim the sails or continue our trip under engine power.
