The Cherokee was built in 2000 and designed by J&J Design. In 2009 the ship was radically rebuilt for sailing at sea with passengers and now has a cutter rigging and a generator room. The Cherokee, now a fast and practical "One Off" 50, is 16 meters long and has a beautiful teak deck with a spacious cockpit. The Cherokee is manageable and therefore easy to sail. A total of eight passengers and two crew members (the skipper and a boatman/woman) can be carried on board. On longer crossings there is also an extra mate.
Attractive interior
The interior is tastefully and practically timbered with mahogany. The cabin has a cozy sitting area and the galley is equipped with a refrigerator, freezer, electric hob and microwave oven. In each cabin there are storage cabinets for luggage and hatches that can be opened.
Also on deck is a good place to be. The cockpit has plenty of space with comfortable sofas and a table. If it cools down in the evening or starts raining, a cockpit tent can be set up in no time, so you can also sit outside.
Special sailing holidays
Every year the Cherokee makes unique sailing trips in special areas such as Ireland, Scotland, Shetland and Faroe Islands. Experience a special sailing holiday, where you can actively help but also relax and enjoy the surroundings.
Host and owner Jouke Lemmers comes from a family of seafarers. In the meantime he has travelled countless miles with the sailing yacht 'Cherokee'. Before that time he was often on the ship of his father who sails in the Baltic Sea. With official sailing license as captain and work experience as a naval engineer (Naval Architect) you are on board the Cherokee in good hands. Moreover, Joukee is relaxed and always calm.
