**Day One **begins with a warm welcome as we greet the crew aboard the boat at our home port of Pekelharinghaven, Medemblik, early on Monday morning.
We swiftly acquaint the crew with the vessel and the provisions already stocked onboard. Following this, a comprehensive briefing is provided regarding our primary route to England, along with a contingency plan, Plan B, for added assurance. Setting sail, our first stop is Den Helder, where we will remain onboard for the night.
Day Two we venture into the Waddenzee and the North Sea, ensuring that every member of the crew is thoroughly briefed and comfortable with the passage plan. Nightfall sees us sailing through with designated night watches in place.
Day Three brings us to the Coast of England, where our course is set for Harwich, a bustling port for commercial vessels. Upon arrival, we take the opportunity to dock and allow the crew to stretch their legs before spending the night in Harwich.
Day Four sees us departing from Harwich, bound for the River Crouch and the quaint hamlet of Pin Mill. Here, you'll enjoy a complimentary lunch at the renowned But and Oyster pub before anchoring for the night.
Waking early on day five, we set sail back towards the Netherlands. A thorough briefing of the return route and assignment of night watches ensures a smooth journey.
Finally, on day six, we arrive back at our home harbour of Pekelharinghaven, Medemblik, around mid-afternoon, concluding our memorable voyage.
