Draaisma Scheeps- en Jachtwerf Marina
Draaisma Scheeps- en Jachtwerf is a shipyard and yacht yard tucked into the historic town of Franeker, a place famous for its remarkable 18th-century planetarium and charming Frisian character. You're getting a proper working yard here — think serious boat maintenance and repair expertise alongside marina moorings, not just a place to tie up and leave. The setting feels genuinely old-school Dutch, with the quiet canals of Waadhoeke surrounding you and the compact town center just a short walk away.
