At 57 meters, Fleurtje has extremely elegant lines. The long overhangs at bow and stern, the rich Awlgrip blue hull and 3 Douglas Fir masts with stay sail plan, combine into a handsome profile.
Her steel hull and aluminium superstructure are in splendid condition having been recently faired and repainted. The acclaimed Naval Architect Gerald Dijkstra was brought in to optimize sailing performance, thus resulting in considerable speed and handling improvements.
Since launch, Fleurtje has undergone 4 refits and been maintained to Lloyds class standards. Such is the degree of ongoing improvements that she is now, certainly, one of the finest 3 masted schooner afloat.
