De Halve Maen (The Half Moon)![]() You don’t need sea legs but you do need a strong stomach for this swinging ship, the ‘Halve Maen’. Are you brave enough? The ship bobs up and down on the waves quite gently to start with, and then “Woah…!”, it feels like you’ve hit a 40-foot wave! “Wait, it looks like we might capsize....” Oh thank goodness it’s all aright. Well, until the next one! “Aaaargggh.…!”
The ‘Halve Maen’ makes you feel like you are being swung back and forth at 180°. It goes up very high so you’d best hold on tight. Let’s hope you have a safe journey! This replica of a VOC ship sailed into the port of the Efteling in 1982. At a speed of 54 km/h it swings you back and forth to a height of 25 metres. The maximum amount of G-force you will experience here is 0 negative (in other words: out of your seat!)._ |
