- Amazing Dutch barge sailing in the late 1960's, extracted from the Bert Haanstra documentary 'Stem van het water / The Voice of the Water' - too amazing not to share!

Still happening each summer. You can go and see the races in Friesland.
btw, Bert Haanstra is a toplevel Dutch cineast/documentary maker.
That was just amazing. I've seen those Dutch boats in marinas, but never saw one under sail. Just beautiful, and they're fast! Thanks for sharing.
I wouldn't want to get in the way of a fleet of 'em! Amazing to watch. Inevitably makes you wonder 'where are they now?' People and boats. Thank you for sharing.
A lot of these boats are still sailing competitions! It’s called skûtsjesilen
I saw a race when I was 5. three years after this was filmed. you could stand within feet of the action.
Uit De stem van het water, Bert Haanstra, 1966.
Very exciting, whoever scored the music fr this did an excellent job. Thank You.
My dad crewed on one of those a couple of times. It's hard work!!! :-)
And they still do it. Still the same, every summer.
I could watch these barges race all day. Great video.
beautiful..
films that old -and precious- should also be sold for download..
That was amazing! I would love to catch a ride on one of those. Time to brush up on my dutch.
I sorry Whe had an Tjalk from 18 meters we build it up, we put two mast on it, one from an old vissing boat, whe had not that much money, and yes then whe started sailing, my wife Carla and Me, with our small kids two whe had, well I had to learn everything my self, but slowly whe dit geth her as whe wanted her to be, it wash in 1968, it must be in our blood, it keeps coming back that feeling from wind and the rush of water around you, o yes nice to live, Jenne
Great video, thanks for posting.
A very well done video of some great boats!
Thanks for the upload! As a Dutch guy i'm a shamed i've never seen the documentary before :(
BTW - if you pause at 12:03 you can read the banner in mirror image - it says "champions 1964", so not quite the late '60s.
Yes, they're really fast - also I wasn't sure, but it looks like in one of the scenes there is a guy putting a wood stick in the water while powering along - I've been in those Dutch lakes and know they are very shallow, mostly around 2m - I was wondering whether he was checking for depth while underway?
Yes.
yes, they are. the boats have vry shallow draft, but the swords go a lot deeper. At speed, if the swords get stuck in the mud the boat may tip over. So the they check for depth to know whe nto turn or whether to reel in the sword.
Incredible.
Great video! Thanks for finding it.
Yes, he is doing exactly that.
Excellent Video!
Fantastic!
awesome video!
Great video, loved it!
It's cool to see lee boards on such large vessels!
Hey brad, Check out facebook.com/crbbs we just are finishing our scow with 6 foot tall lee boards. The scow is all hand-built, no electricity or sand paper. All hand tools. I hope you enjoy it, --N
i am sailing in the netherlands and all traditional ships have these ;) i recon up to 45 meter ships (mostly build as cargo vessels and refitted for charter work) #ricpicks
amazing! beautiful!
Well the race and those boats (skûtsje) are still there =) Since 1945 the race has a committee and every year there is a race. This years race starts at saturday 20th of july. There is a website but it's only in Dutch, maybe you can use google translate to translate the website. w w w skutsjesilen nl
Not for the faint of heart You are either in 100%, or stay out of the way.
Люди ушедшие в вечность!
Thanks for sharing this Nick. Will you be visiting the Netherlands anytime soon?
6:48 *measuring the depth...
I don't think I will be unfortunately! :(
No doubt the chief cargo is BEER
