Our boat and crew

The Lena Maria…


…is captained by Ton…



Ton does much more than captain our boat. He does everything else as well — loads & unloads bikes, pariticipates in everything culinary (preparing, serving, cleaning up) and is there for us at the end of the day. The rest of the crew does more than one task as well, so we can call these three a “team”.


Lars is mainly the cook who puts out gourmet meals for us each day.


Robin assists with the lines as well as all those ancillary culinary tasks.
Talking of crew, let me include our ride leader extraordinaire — Francine. Not only does she round us up and find interesting stops for us, she is an excellent flat tire repairer.


And there are Ralph and Carol who run this whole thing and have arranged a fantastic tour for us all. I believe they are both learning lessons from our expert here ;’-)
