Hoorn to Enkhuizen

Short sail today, but a huge lock system to go through, the
Krabbersgate Naviduct which you call on VHF22, then when you have passed
through the lock you motor towards the bridge, the lights go green and red and
you make a run for it. Kaikoura missed this lock and bridge, as they were
fuelling up, so we motored on to our next Town Quay.
Very soon after this we take a turn into Enkhuizen we opt to
go into the town centre against the harbour wall. There is a beer
festival going on and live music giving a holiday spirit feel to the place.
The main attraction is the extensive Zuiderzee museum we
spent the afternoon going around the open air reconstructed villages, where the
buildings have been saved and relocated within the museum showing all the old
trades from rope making, to smoking mackerel (which I not caught yet!) very
interesting nice to walk around in nice weather too. Cycled back to boat and did impromptu drinks on board Suzie
Too. Best Regards David &
