History
In the year 2000, company Randstad and the city of Amsterdam collaborated to commission the construction of the Stad Amsterdam, a modern homage to the authentic clippers that once dominated the seas. Designed to meet contemporary standards, this majestic vessel pays tribute to the storied history of 19th-century clippers.
During this era of intense competition in the shipping industry, clippers emerged as the pinnacle of maritime innovation. In pursuit of faster trade routes for valuable commodities like tea and spices, shipbuilders experimented with various hull forms and sail configurations. The result was a remarkable fusion of speed and elegance, embodied by the sleek lines and towering masts of the clipper ships.
Since its launch, Clipper Stad Amsterdam has navigated the waters of the Baltic Sea, North Sea, Mediterranean, Atlantic, the Caribbean and even Pacific, Australia and South-East Asia, embodying the legacy of its historic predecessors while charting a course into the future of maritime exploration.
