Sailing in Maastricht

Sailing in Maastricht? Yes, this is actually possible! On this page, you can find out about the boats belonging to the association and where we sail them!

Then check out our education page.

Our Fleet

The association is in possession of a Laser 2 regatta, two laser standards (including a radial set), two laser pico’s, four polyvalks, a motorboat and an optimist.

Keel Boats

Nimbus

The Nimbus is a Hoora Valk built in the year 2008 and added to our fleet in 2019. The valk was purchased from Hoora Watersport, located in Ottenhome. The name nimbus comes from the circle shaped light beam which is drawn on the heads of the greek gods as well as other holy men.

Brizo

The Brizo is a polyvalk built in the year 2004 and was added in 2011 to our fleet. She is named after the Greek godess Brizo, the protector of the mariners, sailors and fishermen.

Windhapper

Windhapper was bought from a friend of Lagakari in 2023. We already rented Windhapper for sailing during INKOM for quite some years and started loving it. Hence, we are very happy to welcome Windhapper to the Lagakari family now!

Voosboot

Do you know what the Voosboom is? In the Voosboom, all romantic activities among Lagakari members are memorized and published in the Lagakari magazine 'Reefknuttel' every couple of months. Our old-members association Water en Wind supported us in buying another boat and in exchange we offered them to choose the name. To keep romances in Lagakari thriving, they decided to name the new boat 'Voosboot' to remind everybody of the most beautiful thing in the world.

The Harbour

Jachthaven Portofino

Our fleet is a short 15 minute cycle from the university of Randwyck. It is located in Oost Maarland, in the harbour Jachthaven Portfino. It is also accessible by bus and car.

The harbour is located at the far south end of the Grindgat, where not only we, but also other sailors and surfers spend their free time. The harbour has all necessary facillities as well as offering a place for all our boats, trailers and the container with all our material, extra sails, masts, wetsuits etc.

The Lake

We sail on the Grindgat Oost-Maarland, a former gravel pit very close to Maastricht. Because it is protected by nature from all sides, it is an ideal spot to learn sailing or improve your skills even further.
