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.

Waarom ik alles in het Engels doe?
Omdat ik video's kijk van Fransen, Denen, Noren, Spanjaarden, Portugezen, Duitsers én heel veel Engelstaligen die allemaal Engels lullen en ook bootjesmensen / liveaboards zijn. Want alleen dan kan je je ervaring wereldwijd delen. En wat blijkt? Mijn video's worden in 127 landen bekeken (zie S03/E01 voor de lijst). Veel van mijn kijkers en abonnees zijn Engelstaligen die mijn video's helemaal top vinden, omdat ze óf familie hebben uit Nederland, of hier jaren geleden zijn geboren en door omstandigheden nu elders op de wereld wonen. En, dat ik dan Engels spreek met een accentje (net als de Fransen, Denen, Noren, Spanjaarden, Portugezen, Duitsers overigens) dan interesseert hen dat geen reet.
Ga met Henk-Jan mee op een opwindende en uitdagende reis aan boord van de MV Lady Liselot terwijl ze door de verraderlijke golven van de Noordzee navigeren. Deze aflevering neemt je mee van de bruisende stad Blankenberge naar de pittoreske havenstad Ramsgate in de UK. Zet je schrap terwijl je ziet hoe de kapitein tegen de elementen vecht, kampt met zeeziekte en de boot door ruw water manoeuvreert. Ervaar de sensatie van het varen op de Noordzee terwijl de wind de boot schuin duwt, waardoor een boeiend avontuur op volle zee ontstaat. Ontdek de technieken voor het uitzetten van strategische koersen van de kapitein en wees getuige van de communicatie met andere boten en de kustwacht via VHF. Bekijk uit de eerste hand het prachtige landschap, de steeds veranderende zeecondities en zelfs een zandbank! Midden op zee!. Wees ten slotte getuige van het vakkundig aanmeren van MV Lady Liselot in Ramsgate. Houd de volgende aflevering in de gaten, waarin Henk-Jan de onverwachte wending in zijn reis onthult. Bereid je voor op een meeslepende ervaring en vergeet niet op het duimpje omhoog te drukken als je genoten hebt van deze spannende zeereis!
