Our projects

Highlighted · 2024–2025

Baukelien II

Together with students from Firda's furniture-maker/ship-interior-builder programme and members of Scouting Sneek, we built the interior of the workboat Baukelien II, commissioned by Scouting Greate Pier — our craftsmen took on the role of construction mentors. During Sneekweek 2025, the Baukelien II was voted Boat of the Year: a lovely recognition of our apprentices' work, and proof of what's possible with good collaboration.

2026

Alu-Dutch Cabin

Interior for the first Alu-Dutch motor sloop (designed and built by Huisken Alubouw) with a fixed cabin: a bed/sleeping bench, a wardrobe and a toilet, with every corner turned into storage.
