Rotterdam is renowned for its modern architecture and its port, one of the largest and busiest in the world.
The iconic white Erasmus Bridge was built between 1990 and 1996, officially opening to the public in 1996.
Its striking design, characterized by a single asymmetrical pylon, has become a symbol of Rotterdam’s innovative spirit.
If you’re interested in more trips from this Belgian club, I’ve gathered some videos for you here: Enjoy outings with the BPC.

After completing several major raids in inflatable boats: Brussels-Antalya, Iceland-Norway and Singapore-Australia, Michel de Hemptinne founded the BELGIAN PNEUMATICLUB (BPC) in 1976 to share his experiences with ‘tyre enthusiasts’ and help them discover the exceptional marine qualities and amazing possibilities offered by this type of boat.
Over the years, the inflatable boat has evolved considerably, while retaining its basic qualities.
Its many possibilities mean that it can be sailed with equal ease on a peaceful canal or on the roughest seas, and is equally suited to adventurous, sporting or family sailing, with a reasonable operating budget compared with other forms of pleasure boating!
In line with the aims of its founder, the BELGIAN PNEUMATICLUB offers a wide range of nautical activities on inland waters and at sea, and continues to promote the versatility of this type of boat, which is becoming increasingly popular with the public.
Our club is also about the pleasure of being on the water with friends, taking part and learning to organise cruises that you wouldn’t undertake on your own.
Not to mention the added safety potential offered by sailing in a ‘flotilla’.

In line with the objectives of its founder, Michel de Hemptinne fonde le Belgian Pneumaticlub (BPC) en 1976, the Club offers many nautical activities in inland and maritime waters and thus continues to promote the versatility of this type of boat which is enjoying growing success with the public.
The club is also the pleasure of being on the water with friends, of participating and learning to organize navigations that we would not undertake alone. Without forgetting the additional safety potential offered by navigation in a “flotilla”.
Each year, the Club draws up a calendar of outings intended to meet everyone’s expectations: maritime or inland navigation, day or multi-day, in Belgium or abroad, nautical holidays, etc.
They publish a magazine. This one’s the “Belgian Pneumaticlub Magazine 126”.

Another great trip done by some members of the Belgian Pneumatic Club back in 2018: around the Spanish islands .
The total distance covered was 650 nm.
It’s a half an hour family video so sit back and relax.

The club is all about the pleasure of being on the water with friends, of participating and learning to organise navigations that you would not undertake alone. Without forgetting the additional safety potential offered by navigation in a “flotilla”.
