Dear fellow motorboaters (and future ones),
Our club was founded in July 1967 by 13 enthusiastic boaters, initially without a harbor of their own. Pretty soon, they planned to build the very first marina on the entire Rhine. Aside from financing, many obstacles had to be overcome until the port was finally opened in June 1972 with great public participation. Details and plenty of background information can be found in our detailed club chronicle.
Today, we have more than 100 members who share a passion for motorboating as a leisure sport. Our vibrant club life is defined by two things:
On the one hand, a strong community spirit in our spacious clubhouse with its sun terrace during our weekly "Stammtisch" and other joint events and celebrations.
On the other hand, through our work assignments and, of course, our on-the-water activities, which include at least three joint trips per season.
The last major club highlight was our celebration of our 50th anniversary in summer 2017, which brought together more than 250 participants from all over the country.
The many exciting cruises our members undertake on Europe's inland waterways and open seas also reflect our commitment to water sports. Here is a small selection of travel logs: 2008 – Norway, 2009 – Sauerkraut Tour, 2014 – Spain & Portugal, 2016 – Spain & Portugal.
Environmental protection is a top priority for us. As proof, our port facility has been awarded the "Blue Flag" (Blaue Flagge) for first-class environmental management every year since 2002.
So much for a brief introduction to our club. We invite you to browse further through our homepage. To protect the privacy of our members and guests, you will not find any recognizable personal photos here, with the exception of the board members.
Therefore, we warmly invite you to come and meet us in person—or drop by on your own boat.
We look forward to welcoming you as a guest or as a new club member!
