Change of tack
Zonnewind Zeilreizen was founded in 1982, the year in which Frans and Frouke Fischer moved to Harlingen to operate charters. At that time, they did so using the tjalk named Orion. Then in 1992, they changed tack and fitted out the Passaat for the passenger trade. The company added the fully renovated vessel Poseidon to its fleet in 1999. Zonnewind Zeilreizen’s corporate identity is nowadays determined by the Passaat and Poseidon.
