Young people at sea

We want to inspire the next generation of boating and maritime enthusiasts

Focusing on everything that floats – whether powered by wind or motor – we want to attract new audiences with the dream of life on the water.
At the Small boat square you will find entry-level boats for our younger captains. Here, parents and children can get guidance on what is suitable to start with when going out on the water.
We also have a Dinghy Square, a unique meeting place for class associations, clubs and sailing schools. Here we want to gather and engage both new and experienced sailors.

The Dinghy Square - for children and young people who want to discover the world of sailing

The Dinghy Square became a popular feature when it was introduced in 2025 and now the area is growing further. Here, young sailors are met by class associations, clubs and sailing schools that are happy to help both children and parents find the right way into the world of sailing.

This year we’re creating an even more active and inspiring environment. There are different dinghies to discover in the area and an activity area in the middle full of things to try. Children and young people can try out everything from rigging and trimming to grinder machines and trapeze exercises.

One of the highlights is our fan, which allows aspiring Optimist sailors to experience what it feels like to gybe with wind in the sail. It’s a fun and educational way to understand the basics and get the feeling of being out on the water.

The activity area also features competitions such as e-sailing and VR sailing, as well as comfortable beanbags to sink into between laps. The Maritime History Museum is also on site with its optimist dinghy.

Small boat square

At the Small boat square you will find smaller boats that are perfect for those who are new to the water or if you just want a slightly smaller boat. Here, well-known brands show their most accessible models and help you find the boat that suits your needs.

You can talk to experienced experts who will be happy to advise you on what is important to consider when choosing your first boat. They will give you tips on safety, equipment and how to stay safe on the water so that the start is both fun and safe.

Whether you’re looking for that first boat for the family or a nimble entry-level model for yourself, the Small Boat Market is the best place to get guidance and find the right boat.
