Stedemaeght Sailing Charters bv

Stedemaeght Sailing Charters offers a memorable event venue on the water from Bataviahaven in Lelystad. The impressive three-masted sailing ship can be booked for corporate events, staff outings, relationship marketing, anniversary celebrations, private parties and weddings, creating an atmosphere that is difficult to match in a conventional venue.

The ship combines historic character with comfortable facilities for modern events. Guests can enjoy spacious outdoor decks with views across the IJsselmeer, while the stylish interior provides a refined setting for dining, speeches, presentations and entertainment. The salon features warm wood detailing and room for an exclusive meal, presentation or formal gathering. At the rear of the ship, the bar area includes a dance floor and raised seating, making it well suited to lively receptions, evening parties and celebrations that continue after dinner.

For organisers, the Stedemaeght offers a flexible format. Groups can choose a short sailing trip, a longer cruise or a stationary event in the harbour. Catering can be arranged to suit the occasion, from drinks and appetisers to a complete dinner or barbecue. The ship can also accommodate entertainment and additional activities, helping organisers create a complete programme rather than simply hiring a room.

The venue is particularly suitable for business gatherings that need a strong sense of occasion, including team events, client receptions, presentations and milestone celebrations. Couples can also exchange their vows on board, with the deck offering a distinctive setting for a wedding ceremony and reception. With capacity for groups of up to approximately 175 guests for day trips, professional support and a central Lelystad departure point, the Stedemaeght provides an appealing alternative for planners seeking an elegant, private and genuinely unforgettable event location.
