What is a motor sailing ship?
Motor sailing ships – the perfect combination of sailing tradition and modern comfort! The vessels of our fleet are motor sailing ships, mostly built in the traditional wooden design. Some wooden vessels in our fleet are more than 100 years old – which anyhow means that only the name and the hull shape are in fact that old. In a number of reconstructions, the vessels have been adapted to today‘s demands. New vessels will have steel hulls, while the interiors are still made of wood. Our motor sailing ships have comfortable en suite showers and toilets, and with individually adjustable air conditioning in the cabins; mostly furnished with queen-size beds, twin beds or bunk beds. Normally, our ships cruise the routes with engine power. Maybe in your imagination an “engine powered journey“ at first glance cannot match with a pure sailing trip. At a second glance, however, it can offer quite a few advantages:
• less dependent on wind and weather
• stable handling of the vessel
• more accurate routing, thus more sights can be visited
• more space and freedom of movement on the sun deck.
