Looking for the ideal home for your boat? Buying a shiphouse is an opportunity for every boating enthusiast. A shiphouse provides protection, convenience, and safety for your vessel. In this article, you’ll find everything you need to know about purchasing a shiphouse.
Thinking of buying a shiphouse? Prins van Oranje offers various shiphouses for sale in prime locations across Friesland. From the watersport villages of Heeg, Woudsend, and Workum, you have direct access to the Frisian Lakes, such as the Heegermeer, Slotermeer, and De Fluessen. The IJsselmeer and even the Wadden Sea are also quickly reachable from Friesland.
A shiphouse offers many benefits for boat owners. It’s more than just a covered mooring: it provides protection, convenience, and additional possibilities.
Covered berth for your boat
Protection from rain, wind, and sun
Keeps your vessel in top condition, reducing maintenance
Extends the lifespan of your boat
Space for maintenance work

Buying a shiphouse comes with many benefits. Not only does it extend the lifespan of your boat, but it also saves money. Maintenance is required less often, and you prevent damage to your vessel. A shiphouse also provides security against theft and vandalism. In addition, you can use a shiphouse as an investment. You can rent it out when you’re not using it yourself, allowing you to recoup part of the purchase cost.
The location of the shiphouse is very important when making a purchase. A shiphouse should be easily accessible, and its connection to waterways is crucial. From your shiphouse, you want to be able to reach routes quickly. A location with good parking and pleasant facilities offers extra peace of mind.
The price of a shiphouse depends on its size, location, age, and the facilities available at the shiphouse complex. Smaller boats require a smaller shiphouse, making it more affordable. The cost of a larger or more luxurious shiphouse, for example with a garage, parking space, shore power, and water connection, is usually higher. A shiphouse also keeps your boat’s maintenance costs low, making it a worthwhile long-term investment.
Instead of buying a shiphouse, you can also choose to rent one. Rental periods usually run from October to April and from April to October. Long-term rental options are also available. This way, you enjoy all the benefits for your boat without the maintenance costs of owning a shiphouse. Prins van Oranje Yachtbrokerage rents out shiphouses in Heeg, Woudsend, and Workum!
