Discover De Droge Jachthaven, the newest and only dry marina in Alphen aan den Rijn and surroundings! But what exactly does a dry harbour entail? With De Droge Jachthaven's unique automatic slipway, you can launch or take your boat out of the water yourself 24/7. The boats at The Dry Marina are thus dry stored when not sailing, which means no encroachment of water plants and no worries about collisions between boats. This marina is a true convenience for any boating enthusiast.

The Dry Marina is an initiative of water sports and internet entrepreneur Stian Duijvelaar, known for Vanclaes boat trailers, Groene Hart sloop rental and various internet shops within Duijvelaar E-commerce. Harbourmaster Menno Haberer is on hand to assist you with moorings, maintenance, repairs, trailer and accessory sales, and of course a friendly cup of coffee. De Droge Jachthaven is a proud member of the HISWA trade association.

But what makes The Dry Marina so unique? Here, the concept of a dry marina is brought to life. All year round, your boat is parked on a trailer on shore in its own permanent box. Using the automatic trailer ramp, you can easily access the harbour area, toilets and automatic trailer ramp yourself 24/7, using your digital access key. This permanent stalling saves you maintenance costs and gives you more flexibility if you want to take to the water elsewhere in the Netherlands or Europe. No more hassle dragging your boat from winter to summer berth and vice versa.

The Dry Marina has its own trailer slipway, and not just any trailer slipway! It is the first in the Netherlands with an automatic trailer slipway. This allows you to launch your boat safely, quickly and independently, 24/7.
