    First one definitely a Hoogars, not sure on the rest - my knowledge of these boats is zero - was just looking into leeboards some months back and kept the picture. Any input would be most welcome - they look really interesting. Thought it might be fun to post as its not fair that I enjoy the content (of the pictures - less so the sniping) without trying to contribute a bit.

    Boeier?

    Here is a nice article how these ships are being built and maintained.

    I can't figure out what the ship behind the Hoogaars is. I think she is Ludana (a boeier) But I can't see because one can see only the stern of the unknown ship and I don't have a photo of Ludana's stern. Quitte obvious she has a golden lion as a "klik" (statue on the helm of a platbodem)

    Perhaps someone else in this forum knows it.
