The Experience

We just bought a huge boat of 600m2 in the city center of Amsterdam that we will transform into a community party boat. A lot of work needs to be done and it will take a while, but there is no rush so we take the time to turn it into something beautiful. We need handy hands. We can learn you most of the skills if necessary.

My stay at the boat was shorter than the arrangement (2 days instead of the 3 weeks). I left earlier because of the difference in the expectations I had when starting versus what the volunteering entailed. The work was quite physically demanding which is what I expected but the lack of safety and assistance was something I think could be improved on for future volunteers. The hours and the actual accommodation description was also something that differed which contributed to me ultimately leaving. I hope Mark and the boat the best
