  1. Nice video, I live in Volendam a village very close to Marken and the boat VD 172 is from Volendam, I enjoyed watching the video thank you for uploading.

  2. Wow i arrived in Volendam which is not far frm Maarken on the 11 Oct 15 because my cousin lives here and its so cool to think i just missed Mr Steves by a couple of days😆

  3. It is my good luck to be able to sail with these wonderful botters often! There is a lot of work that goes into keeping these few that are left operational. I love my life in The Netherlands. Volendam is right here close to Marken too!
