Welcome aboard the Demo sloop: The titanic
Bookingsystem
When you need a skipper/host/catering, you choose a time block in which time you need the skipper. The skipper/host/catering will in any case be ready in this time block. The costs incurred for booking will be settled later with the exact costs.
You can cancel free of charge 7 days before the day you booked the skipper/host/catering and then you got a full refund of the bookingcosts.

How does it work?
Step 1: Registration
Register on this website (first time only) as an AanUit.net user. After registration you can use any AanUit.net point in the Netherlands at local applicable rates An AanUit.net point can be for stay (mooring or parking), power connection. All AanUit.net points have a unique five-digit number. You can activate the relevant AanUit.net points and pay with them via the following steps.
Step 2: Switch on accommodation, power supply or water tap
Select the location where you are.
Select the correct service (Stay, electricity, or water).
Activate the five-digit number of the AanUit.net point you want to activate with:
The AanUit.net app (for smartphone or tablet) or
This website: log in with your email address and password (at the top of this page)
Stay
You must first turn on your stay before turning on electricity.
Your stay and the electricity remain activated until the moment you switch off the residence or power.
The rules for stay may vary by location. You will be notified when the new period starts.
Electricity
Connect your power cable to the AanUit.net point you want to activate. When you turn on the power, you will see this by the blue LED ring (if equipped).
Step 3: Switch off accommodation, power supply
You can turn off your stay, power, sessions in the same way you turned them on (see step 2).
You can be informed of your costs for your stay, electricity, sessions via a daily email or SMS (you can change this via your settings on the website and app).
If you use the AanUit.net app or “My environment” on AanUit.net, you always have an overview of your current consumption, the costs, and the status of your connection and stay (on/off).
Please note: Removing the power cable from the power strip does not end your session, you must turn off the session via the app or the website!
Pay
You pay afterwards via one of our payment methods which you chose during registration.
The simplest payment method is direct debit. At the beginning of the next month, the amount is automatically debited from your bank account. You will receive an email containing your invoice which has already been paid.
If you have not opted for direct debit, you will receive an email at the beginning of the next month that indicates that your invoice is ready in the app or on the website with a payment link. You can then pay the amount via iDeal, Sofort, Mr. Cash, or credit card (MasterCard or VISA).
Boating rules in Amsterdam
- Safety first! Make sure there is one responsibile skipper at all times that is confident to sail along the waterways and canals of Amsterdam.
- Above all: Above all, good seamanship – this means that you must always try to avoid a collision, even if you are in the right position.
- Maximum speed is 6 kilometers per hour. This is faster than a pedestrian, but slower than a cyclist.
- Sometimes a boat causes unneccessary waves with a speed of 6 km per hour, please lower your speed in that case.
- Always keep starboard (right).
- Starboard (right) is always first.
- A small ship <20 meters always gives way to a larger ship
- Do not drink alcohol while operating the boat.
- Be mindful of the neighborhood: don’t play music or shout. You risk a fine.
- Sail with a maximum of 12 people + skipper in the canals of Amsterdam
- When it is getting dark, late at night – make sure to have working front and rear lights.
- The 12+ (1 skipper) rule does not apply on the IJ, the Amstelroute and Kostverlorenvaartroute. These through routes are part of Amsterdam’s inland waterways, where 12+ (1 skipper) is allowed. Please see the green highlighted are map below:

How to: Taking the boat through a lock
- What is a boat lock? Boat lock is a device used for raising and lowering boats between stretches of water of different levels on canal waterways.
- Approach the lock when the gates are open and the green light is on.
- Once you are in the lock, wrap your lines around the bollard. Do not cleat them off, just take a wrap so you can loosen the line as you raise or lower in the lock.
- Wait until you have completely locked up or down!
- Thank the staff for letting you through! 🙂
