Enkhuizen Nautical College at BOOT Düsseldorf

The Boot Düsseldorf fair will give space to the Enkhuizen Nautical College to inform water sports enthusiasts about sailing cargo shipping. The theme is The Renaissance of Sails.

Director Cosmo Wasselaar explains why:
“Our international education has seen a steady increase in the number of students. Developments in sailing ships carrying cargo around the world, passenger ships setting new standards in green travel and the use of wind as secondary propulsion on modern merchant ships all point to a renewed interest in this ubiquitous form of energy.”

In this lecture during the exhibition, Cosmo will try to explain this resurgence by looking back at the history of sailing, but also looking ahead to developments that will bring renewed attention to the use of wind as an important means of propulsion at sea.
