Rent a large boat in Amsterdam
For bigger groups and large events a spacious boat is essential. Our large boats offer room for 50 to 90 people, with multiple zones on board where guests can move freely. Corporate parties, weddings, anniversaries or large family gatherings: there's space for everyone.
Room to move
The difference with smaller boats is the freedom of movement. On a large boat you can have drinks on one side and a quiet conversation on the other. Guests don't have to sit on top of each other, but can move through the space. Our boats sail 100% electric on green energy, quiet and clean. No diesel drowning out the conversations.
Full facilities
All large boats have heating, a toilet, a sound system and 220V power outlets. The roof can open and close, so you enjoy the sunshine or stay sheltered in the rain. A professional crew on board makes sure everything runs smoothly.
Rent a Boat Amsterdam is a partnership of the city's leading boat operators. You book directly at the source, without intermediaries. We always sail, on time, well organised and without exception.
