Schooner Twister
Twister | 20 pers. (55 day) | Baltic Sea
This traditional fishing ship was built completely from wood in 1902. In 1957, the wooden hull was replaced by a steel one. In 1998, the two-masted schooner 'Twister' was completely converted into a luxury sailing ship with the feel of a yacht. All guests are guaranteed an enjoyable and comfortable sailing trip aboard the 'Twister', whether at the helm, on deck or in the wheelhouse. This luxury schooner additionally boasts a beautiful bar in the stern. Her modern rigging system and the gracefully designed lines enable the 'Twister' to perform excellently both on the IJssellake, Baltic Sea and the ocean. Skipper André Hanzens has extensive experience of many of the world's oceans and wil be only too happy to guide you through the wonderful world of sailing.
In 2012 the Twister will be sailing in the following areas:
