The ship
Thalassa
You are here : Home / Ship / ThalassaIts hull is from the Dutch fishing ship "Reliquinda", built in 1980 near Amsterdam. It is an old fishing side trawler. In August 1984, it sank after striking a wreck of the Second World War.
In 1995, two friends, Arnold Hylkema and Henk Stallinga, decided to transform this old fishing ship and designed their dreamed ship, taking only the hull. They transformed it into a luxurious big sailing ship. They are still the owners.
The vessel, now rigged as a three-masted schooner, had a new launching under the Dutch flag and its home port became Harlingen.
This vessel with 18 cabins travels a lot and it can accommodate 34 passengers and its crew. It can embark up to 120 passengers per day.
