Motor boats in Netherlands
Motor boats in the Netherlands are the cruisers and open sloops of Friesland and Holland: Sneek, Heeg, Lemmer and Terherne on the Frisian lakes, Loosdrecht, Vinkeveen and Amsterdam in the west. No licence is needed for a boat under fifteen metres that cannot exceed twenty kilometres an hour, which covers almost the whole charter fleet. The waterways connect the lakes, the IJsselmeer and the old towns, with bridges and locks operated by keepers and a mooring in a town centre most nights.
