SV Rembrandt van Rijn

Ship description

Originally built in 1947 as a herring lugger, SV Rembrandt van Rijn was converted into a three-mast passenger schooner in 1994 in the Netherlands. Later, the ship underwent a complete reconstruction and renovation program until 2011. According to the latest SOLAS regulations the communication and navigation equipment was completely renewed. The ship has a reinforced bow, making it ideally suited for sailing expeditions to the fjords of Greenland. The SV Rembrandt van Rijn sails easily between small islands and offers excellent open deck areas for wildlife and landscape viewing.
The two inflatable dinghies (Zodiacs) allow landings into otherwise inaccessible areas for further exploration of flora and fauna.
