Mermaid. Built as a steel cargo ship in 1907 she was refitted as a passenger ship in 1990.

Harlingen to London. In Harlingen in the 1800s, you could buy a ticket to any major port in the world.

Small Canal

Java. Many houses are named for the place their builder traded.

Streetscape. Or should that be 'Canalscape'?

Wind Farm

My New Electric Motor. I finally traded the petrol outboard for this ePropulsion unit. Very happy so far.

The Fishing Fleet

Mermaid. Flat-bottomed with gigantic lee boards instead of a keel.

Zuiderhaven. The main canal in Harlingen.

Shooting the Breeze

Morning Light. The big canals have many working boats carrying everything imaginable.

Work Area. Anjea may spend a few weeks in one of those sheds being refurbished.

Witte Swaen. Willem Barentsz and crew cast off in 1596 to find a northern, Arctic, route to China. This boat is a replica.

It's a Whale. I think.

Replica Traditional Ship. Many of these beautiful ships, designed for the shallow waters of the canals, lakes and seas around Holland, are still being built and restored.

Harlingen Lion

Countless Insects. On the IJselmeer on a still summer day the insect population explodes

Fishing. This was snapped directly outside Multiship.

Algae. The cause of the insect explosion.
