Parade of 8000 boats John Curnow
Every five years the parade of ships 'Sail Amsterdam' takes place. In August thousands of vessels, from small sailboats to large replicas of caravels, arrive together at the IJ bay north of the city and then pass to the capital of the Netherlands. In 2015 involving 8,000 vessels!
Every five years millions of people gather here to see a show that could not be seen in any other place on earth. It is really an amazing event.
