Departures at De Vries Maritiem - Your Adventure, Our Passion!
Exploring the world on your own keel is an adventure like no other. At De Vries Maritiem, we understand how special this journey is and we want to be a part of it! Whether you're sailing towards the horizon or braving the ocean, we make sure your sails and canvas products are perfectly prepared for everything you encounter along the way.
The Departure Plan - Everything For Your World Journey
With our Departure Plan, we make sure your sails and canvas products are fully prepared for the challenges of a long trip. We take measurements of your sails in advance so we can adjust them to the best of our ability. And should you incur damage along the way or become unexpectedly stranded, we'll custom-make new sails and ship them directly to your location so you can get back on the boat quickly.
Sails and Canvas, Perfectly Prepared for Your Trip
Every trip is unique, which is why we tailor our products to your specific adventure. We discuss in detail your destination, climate and conditions, so we match your sails and canvas products exactly to what you need. Whether it's sails or other canvas solutions, we offer the best protection for your boat and your adventure:
- Sun, sun and more sun: Are you going after the sun? We use UV-resistant materials for your sails and canvas, so that your sails will withstand the bright sun and last longer.
- Offshore and heavy wind: Are you sailing in the open sea? Then we provide offshore reinforcements in your sails so that they can withstand the rigors of rough conditions and high winds.
- Rainy adventures: If you are going to encounter a lot of rain, we offer vertical seals for your canvas to protect you, so you can keep sailing comfortably under the heaviest rain.
