Our boats sail 100% electric on green energy, quietly and cleanly through the canals of Amsterdam. No engine noise, no distractions, just focus.

How does your trip on a salon boat work?
1 - Welcome on board
You are welcomed at a central boarding location in Amsterdam. The meeting space is already set up: table, chairs, flip chart and any presentation equipment are ready. Coffee and tea are prepared.
2 - Start of the meeting
Once everyone is on board, the boat departs quietly from the quay. As the city slowly fades from view, focus begins to grow. No office noise, just your team.
3 - Productive work on the water
The boat glides quietly and electrically through the canals. The changing scenery provides inspiration without distraction. The combination of movement and calm works surprisingly well for creative thinking and decision-making.
4 - Break with a view
Time for a short break. Top up your coffee, stretch your legs, or enjoy the view of the canal houses. In nice weather the roof opens for fresh air.
5 - Catering on board
Lunch or snacks are served while you continue working or take a break. Fresh sandwiches, salads or warm dishes, depending on your package. Everything is taken care of on board.
6 - Closing and return
The meeting comes to a conclusion as the boat sails back to the quay. On arrival the crew helps you off the boat. A meeting that stays with you, not just because of the decisions, but also because of the experience.
Frequently asked questions
Yes, we can provide a flip chart, whiteboard and even a projector or screen. Let us know what you need when you make your request and we will arrange it.
