Sailing Heritage Netherlands has the largest still sailing historical fleet in the world. These more than 400 authentic ships are of great cultural-historical value. Many ships have been saved from the scrapyard, restored and made suitable for sailing with passengers. This is how the skippers keep these old cargo ships sailing. The tjalk yacht Pelikaan is also part of this special fleet and is registered in the Register Sailing Heritage Netherlands.
