Single-handed sailing trip: Around the northern IJsselmeer | Sailing into the Blues A long weekend alone on my 31-foot sailboat – I set off from Hindeloopen on a short trip around the northern IJsselmeer. Fantastic anchorages, misty atmospheres, and quiet harbors make this trip special. My route: ⚓ Hindeloopen → De Kreupel bird island (at anchor – sunset & sunrise) ⚓ Onward to the old Vluchthaven between Medemblik & Andijk – a sheltered anchorage ⚓ Overnight stay in the small marina of Den Oever ⚓ Calm seas & fog on the way across the IJsselmeer to the Kornwerderzand lock – right through the Fryslân wind farm ⚓ Last night at anchor at Kornwerderzand ⚓ Early morning return to Hindeloopen A relaxed single-handed trip with many special moments – from solitary anchoring to quiet foggy passages. 📌 Subscribe to the channel for more sailing adventures: @sailingin2theblues 📸 More impressions on Instagram: sailingin2theblues #Sailing #SingleHandedSailing #Ijsselmeer #Sailing #SailingIntoTheBlues
