Few things are as relaxing as spending a day on the Rottemeren in a small motorboat. You set your own pace, moor wherever you like and take in the calm water and wide-open landscape. Whether you're an experienced skipper or just starting out, this is a day to savour.
In this playbook you'll first arrange a suitable boat and plan your trip properly. On the water you follow the marked routes and keep an eye out for other vessels and the sailing rules. At the end you return the boat in good shape and round off the day at a waterside terrace.

Rent a boat that suits your skill level and group size. There are several rental companies at the Rottemeren; check the terms around sailing hours and any extra costs.
Prepare well: bring a map, plenty of food and water, sunscreen and comfortable clothing. Don't forget life jackets and a first-aid kit.
Board the boat and head out. Follow the marked routes and signs, be considerate of other boats and soak up the scenery and the peace and quiet.
At the end of the day, head back, return the boat clean and undamaged and check that you have everything with you. Wrap things up with a drink or a bite to eat at a nearby spot.
