Welcome aboard for an exciting YouTube Wednesday adventure on motor vessel lady leiselot as Captain Liz explores the stunning Nature Reserve de Basten, navigates the sands and tides, shares delicious Dutch delights, and sails through enchanting waterways in this entertaining episode. Join her now!
Navigating the Sandbanks of De Basten
In the summer month of June, Captain Liz finds herself anchored in the Nature Reserve De Basten. This enormous reserve is dotted with tidal flats and sandbanks, a perfect backdrop for an intriguing adventure.
A Wind Shift’s Influence on the Anchor
The day before, Captain Liz had experienced the wind blowing from the east. However, now, it has shifted to the west, causing her boat to turn 180 degrees in the water. She notes that her depth is now at 2 meters, down from 4 meters previously.
Careful Anchoring Strategy
In preparing to lift her anchor, Captain Liz considers the effects of wind pushing her boat towards a nearby area with more depth. She plans to raise the anchor very carefully and quickly reposition her vessel in deeper waters before unhooking it completely.
Navigating Up the Doel River
Following a lift, Captain Liz makes her way under Muiden Bridge – a landmark consisting of three bridges (two for trains and one for cars) with an 8-meter clearance. As she sails toward the Doel River, her boat picks up speed, thanks to the tidal current pushing it northward.
Taking a Pause for Dutch Treats
During her journey, Captain Liz reflects on some quintessentially Dutch treats, such as the giant ‘merpijp’ cookies. These sweets and a cup of coffee provide her with a short respite while navigating.
Sailing Through the Swan Colony
Captain Liz also takes the time to observe an enormous flock of swans in the area, appreciating their beauty and realizing how different each bird is. These majestic creatures make for a memorable sight as she sails through.

So After weeks of rain teh Netherlands (well at least the part where I am) enjoyed a beautiful summer evening. We almost forgot how that felt. And whilst enjoying this evening, I remembered the footage I had from me being on anchor in nature reserve The Biesbosch.

The 4 camera's I use to produce my outdoor footage, are so called PTZ - P(an) T(ilt) Z(oom). Zoom, I only use on the rear camera, when I am underway. As you have seen I use the pan and tilt a lot. And in the dark they produce a great (short view) infrared image. I even can navigate in a marina at night on my cams.
Since they all are so called "IP camera's", each have an unique (hardwired) IP address (no DNS) in my network.

This channel follows a format: "Join Henk-Jan, whilst he cruises on motorvessel Lady Liselot through The Netherlands and a little further". 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.

Nederlands.
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 helemaal niets.
Weet je dat Nederlandse ondertiteling aan kan zetten? Doorgaans zo'n 4 uur nadat de video is gepubliceerd. Klik op de video, en kies uit de iconen die rechtsonder verschijnen dan voor [ondertiteling] en kies daar voor Nederlands. Dan wordt zelfs mijn steenkolen Engels (knap he van die jongens en meisjes YouTube) vertaald naar Nederlandsch.
