Ship Photos of the Day – SAIL Amsterdam Festival Kicks Off with Huge Parade
Here are some pictures from Wednesday’s Sail-In Parade marking the start of the SAIL Amsterdam 2015 maritime pageant held in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
SAIl Amsterdam is held each 5 years and celebrates the Netherlands’ maritime and nautical heritage. The opening Sail-In Parade attracts some 600 vessels, together with a number of well-known tall ships, from around the globe as they navigate alongside the North Sea Canal earlier than mooring in and across the IJhaven in Amsterdam. The occasion has grown to turn out to be the most important public occasion within the Netherlands and the most important free nautical occasion on the earth, in keeping with the event organizers.
This 12 months marks the ninth version of SAIL Amsterdam, happening from 19 to 23 August. Guess that’s the place to be.
