The Boskoop Triple Schouw is a traditional type of wooden flat-bottomed boat that was originally used for transporting trees and other products in the tree nursery areas around Boskoop. These schouwen were essential for tree growers, as they were the only way to transport their products via the many ditches and waterways to the markets.
Construction Material: Wood, often oak or other durable wood.
Shape: Flat-bottomed with a slight curve, suitable for shallow waters.
Length: Varying, but often between 10 and 12 metres.
Use: Transport of trees, soil, and other products within the tree nursery sector.
Propulsion: Originally with a quant pole or by rowing; later also with an outboard motor.
