Brochure Poseidon

The clipper, Poseidon
This is why the ship offers a great deal of space both above and below deck.
The sailing properties of the clipper have greatly improved over the years. The Poseidon is equipped with a comfortable
interior that ensures a cosy atmosphere. The skippers’ couple Nico Goeres and Alida Beekhuizen will make sure you
have a fantastic sailing experience, and they think of all your wishes and requirements.
Number of persons
The Poseidon offers space for a maximum of 32 passengers for an overnight stay. During a day trip there is room for a
maximum of 50 people. As a result, the Poseidon is eminently suitable for a company outing, a school trip or a sailing
