Great cruise to the seals and the Westkop with the Brandaris
The old motor lifeboat Brandaris sails around the West Point of the island and to the sandbanks where seals and seabirds reside. The boat excursion lasts more than 2 hours and shows the effects of nature on the west side of the island. It is the area where many shipwrecks have occurred in previous centuries. The sandbanks are constantly moving. It is the domain of seals and seabirds. The picture changes with the season and daily with the tide. Seals are almost always there, dozens, hundreds and sometimes even a thousand. The boat trip takes 2 hours.

The Foundation for the Preservation of the Oldest Motor Lifeboat in the World was established in 2003 to protect the former motor lifeboat Jhr. mr. J.W.H. Rutgers van Rozenburg to be purchased and restored. This ship had been converted into a pleasure yacht and is hardly recognizable as a lifeboat. Within a year, this boat was restored to its original condition with the help of many. At the same time, a museum jetty was constructed in the harbor of West Terschelling, where the 'Rutgers' was given a permanent berth. For example, one can now see the oldest and the newest lifeboats together in a harbor: a rich piece of history.
