The skipper picked up his crew at Lelystad station at 10:00 hrs. On board we stored all our shopping items and luggage. After a cup of coffee we left for Amsterdam. Today was sunny with no wind at all. We tried the halfwinder, but we had no luck at all. After a smooth trip passing three locks we reached Seaport Marina IJmuiden. The eldest son of Cees with his wife and two kids came for a drink. Afterwards we went to bed early, as the next day we have to leave the harbour at 05:00 o'clock in order to have some favour of the current southwards.
