SAIL Amsterdam The first steps towards organizing SAIL Amsterdam 700, which was held in 1975, were taken during preparations for the celebration of Amsterdam’s 700th anniversary. During these preparations, it was proposed to org anise a nautical event in Amsterdam harbor, which would be centered on the harbor and the city of Amsterdam. For the ‘Sail Amsterdam 700’ event, sailing ships from all over the world were invited and the event was a huge success. Following the big success of Sail Amsterdam 700, it was decided to organize another SAIL Amsterdam in 1980. In order to steer the organization in the right direction, the Sail Amsterdam Foundation (SSA) was set up as a permanent organization in 1975. Ever since then, the SSA has successfully organized a SAIL Amsterdam event in 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000 and 2005 SAIL Amsterdam Amsterdam was the home port to one of the biggest maritime events in the world for the seventh time in 2005, SAIL Amsterdam 2005. For six days, Amsterdam was a vibrant exhibition of historic ships and nautical heritage. During SAIL Amsterdam 2005, about 20 Tall Ships were in Amsterdam harbor, together with 500 historic sailing and motorboats. SAIL events attract Tall Ships from around the world. This means that, apart from a number of Dutch Tall Ships, you have a chance to admire impressive windjammers from countries such as Australia, Brazil, Norway, Romania, Russia and the Ukraine at the harbor. In addition to the Tall Ships, hundreds of classic sailing and motorboats will participate in SAIL Amsterdam. These historic ships dock at the Oosterdok and the Aquarena, west of the Verbindingsdam. World of Friendships However, SAIL is much more than just watching ships, taking in the atmosphere and enjoying surprising encounters. SAIL bings bring together worlds and people in every sense and will be a special event with a social relevance, as the driving forces behind SAIL are tolerance, understanding and friendship. Through its program of events, activities and communications, SAIL always brings Amsterdam truly alive: * the maritime link between past, present and future; * the link between worlds and cultures; * the role of young people. The overall motto that unites these three areas is ‘Enjoy a world of friendships’.
