Pieperrace (spud regatta)

Pieperrace Volendam
Pieperrace VolendamOn Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 April 2019, the 35st Pieperrace will take place on the Markermeer . Organized by the Pieperrace Foundation, it can be followed from the shores around hospitable Volendam. This yearly event marks the beginning of the sailing season. Many historical ships take part every year, including klippers, tjalk barges, aaks, botters and kwaks. The Catharina van Mijdrecht often takes part too, providing we can get a crew together.

The Pieperrace (pieper = spud) is held in commemoration of the risky potato transports that took place on the IJsselmeer during World War II, when Volendammer fishermen brought potatoes from Friesland to supply the hospitals in Amsterdam (Wikipedia).
