Built in the illustrious year 1920, the De Vries Lentsch brand Vlet is a true piece of nautical history. With a length of 500 centimeters, a width of 185 centimeters and a draft of 55 centimeters, she offers a perfect balance between stability and maneuverability.
The hull, in the classic round bilge shape, is a tribute to traditional craftsmanship. Her teak construction, riveted overhead and crafted with attention to detail, speaks volumes about the craftsmanship that went into her design.
Beneath the meticulously maintained teak deck lurks a working Albin engine from the same year of construction as the boat itself. With its two cylinders and electric start, it provides power for quiet trips on the water, with a maximum speed of 8 mph.
The exterior of the boat has all the necessary equipment for comfortable and safe cruising. From a spray hood and cockpit tent for shelter from wind and weather to a set of fenders for gentle docking moments, this Vlet is equipped for every environment and situation.
What makes her truly unique are the extras that highlight her character and history. With special antique ship lights, an original yard plate and a distinct tow pole, this boat exudes the atmosphere of days gone by. Her rich history, cherished by the family that has owned her for more than 60 years, makes her a valuable heritage that is ready for new adventures on the canals, ditches, ponds, rivers and lakes of the Netherlands.
