This channel follows a format: "Join Henk-Jan, whilst he cruises with Lady Liselot".
That's it. This automatically means: no boat tour and no boat jobs. These subjects do not fit the format. So, I aim to give you a feel for what life's like aboard for me and hope you enjoy it, perhaps relate to it or maybe even learn something. But it's simply my story and the way I do things. Nothing more, nothing less.
So if you have not yet already, please do not forget to:

S3/E01; Cruising to the North of The Netherlands, pt6; "Dancing, yeah!"
I am moored at the Leeghwater bridge close to Alkmaar and when the 'traffic jam avoidance closure' is over, I continue my journey on the Noord Hollandsch Canal. It's a beautiful evening and we expertience the beautiful scenery towards our mooring spot for the night.
So glad you found this video. I'm Henk-Jan and because I have many (boat) acquaintances who live abroad worldwide, I decided to do the video in English. Are you still with me, and like the channel?
