Welcome to Bootje Speciaal
Each boat journey with us is a unique experience!
What not to expect...
-
- Historical guided tours. While our skilled skippers may not be history buffs, they are exceptionally sociable and friendly.
- Onboard restrooms. Regrettably, we don't have restrooms on board. But worry not, as there are plenty of clean public facilities along the way. Make sure to check out the architecturally impressive public toilet designed by Rem Koolhaas at Academy Minerva Square.
- Rain Protection. Our boat doesn't feature a roof, but we've got a clever trick up our sleeve. We can seek shelter under a bridge if rain surprises us. However, we generally sail in fair weather to keep you dry and comfortable.
What you can look forward to…
-
- Cold refreshments. As you soak up the sun and enjoy the company, you might find yourself craving a cold drink. We've got you covered with a diverse selection of beverages.
- Disco LED lights. Our boat comes alive with vibrant Disco LED lights, setting the perfect mood. Of course, no disco is complete without music, and we've got that covered too.
- Electric sailing. Our boat is equipped with a powerful electric motor. This has several advantages: you can hear each other talk while sailing, you don't have to deal with constant diesel fumes, and it's much friendlier to the environment, the canal, and the ducks.

Where's the Party at?
Renting a boat with Bootje Speciaal is very popular!
Had a super fun afternoon and evening on Bootje Speciaal! The boat is very spacious and has a great barbecue. Furthermore, the owner is very friendly and explains the do's and don'ts well. Definitely a recommendation for anyone who wants to have a nice and enjoyable boat trip.
Robert
Fantastic tour guide, easily adapts to the audience (in this case, students) and can then blend in as "one of the guys", but I have no doubt that he could also engage with a group of retirees.

Never sink twice
Met de Unsinkable 2 is geen zee te hoog. Nou ja, een zeevaart is misschien wel iets te streberig. Maar voor een rondje door de prachtige grachten van Groningen of een tocht op het open water is deze boot jouw ideale partner. Met zijn lengte van 11 meter is er ruimte voor maximaal 34 personen, een gezellige boel dus! De boot heeft een knusse opzet waardoor je wat dichter bij elkaar zit, lekker sfeervol. Verder zijn de stoelen voorzien van comfortable kussens. Zo kan je ook na je dagje varen nog normaal ergens plaatsnemen. Wel zo fijn. Terwijl de Unsinkable 2 je overal mee naartoe neemt, geniet jij van het zonnetje, een drankje en goede gesprekken met je collega’s, vrienden of familie. Zie je het al voor je?
