This past weekend, we had an unforgettable training weekend with the sailing association in Langweer. We arrived Friday evening and kicked things off right away with a beautiful sunset sail — a magical start to the weekend.
Saturday morning started early at 8 AM with our first training session. We sailed in two shifts each day, rotating skippers to learn from different styles. Around midday, we had lunch at a Marekrite near Joure, lowering the mast to pass under a bridge – a real team effort!
In the evening, we cooked and enjoyed a delicious curry together. As the sun set again, some of us headed back onto the water, while others took a refreshing swim to end the day on a high note.
Sunday began just as early, with new boat crews and fresh wind. We had lunch at another Marekrite, followed by the highlight of the weekend: a game of boat tag with balls and water pistols. Nobody was safe – and nobody stayed dry!
Throughout the weekend, we practiced lots of man-overboard drills, supported and challenged each other, and learned a ton. We're proud to announce three new skippers: congratulations to Sterre, Miguel, and Maaike!
A big thank you to our skippers Niek, Kilian, Julian, and Maria for guiding us, to the ZeilCie for organizing, and to Thymos for the subsidy. What a weekend – can’t wait for the next one!

The new Zeilcie calendar is out! Check it out for all the organized sailing weekends and summer sailing week dates! Also don't forget about experience day, the very fun non-sailing activity the zeilcie organizes ;)

The last sailing weekend of the year has come and gone, but what fantastic weather we had this time around!
