- In 1991, Bea Pijn-Blom and her late husband Jan Pieter Pijn bought the Bregetta, a small freight ship converted into a sailing houseboat. She was built in 1914 on the Czaar Peter Werf in Zaandam. ‘It was a freight liner for clean goods,’ tells Bea Pijn-Blom. ‘It sailed with flour and coffee to Amsterdam en sometimes to Groningen and Limburg. This year we published a book about the Bregetta (‘Motor vessel Bregatta, sailing through the time 1914-2019’) that describes her time as a freight liner. Up until 1978, it was a freighter. After that, she was converted into a sailing houseboat by the grandson of the skipper.’ Originally, there was a Honig of 24 hp in the engine room. It was replaced by a Kromhout of 30 hp. In 1958, the ship was lengthened, the cargo hold was raised and the current engine was put in place, a Van Rennes 2DC of 60 hp. Paul Huygen, a study friend of Jan Pieter Pijn and a specialist on old ships engines, demonstrates the starting procedure of the Van Rennes and takes her sailing on the Hoge Vaart near Almere.

It's nice that someone still cares about these old engines!! Good job!!
I like the cat on this boat !
Marvelous! The ship cat... love it!🤗❤️
Looks like there were two.. One at the beginning to the left of the wood burner and it looks like a different one at 9.00 taking a stroll across the top of the hold. Cool!!
Geweldig!!
That is just wonderful. I can so totally relate to it. I too have made engine room recordings, on board my beautiful, Abeking & Rasmussen 1968 built, 68 foot steel ketch, with her also beautifully polished, painted & lubricated, Gardner 6LXB .... Oh my god, what an incredible lullaby she has been humming to us for 45 years.... 45 -100% - trouble-free years I must had. And her marine gear ... also a with thing of beauty and reliability.
From idle, that would put any baby to sleep, all the way up to the incredible sound of wide open throttle at 1300rpm!
Thanks so much for posting your video, these things are absolutely priceless. The love affairs we have with our marine creatures is rather odd is it not? I'm so glad to be one of the odd fellows!
I have watched several of these videos. I plan to binge watch them all!
Wat a beautiful old vessel, a pure joy 👌
Great ship and engine.
Wow! Lovely boat! Stove, cat and an engine like a sewing machine! I'm in love with her! To think she originally had a motor in the same power as a Honda 250! Dankjewel!
Thank you so much! How wonderfull it is!
I didn't know that there were so many engine makes. Love the cat.
Tnx for the subtitles, I wish this was possible on all the wonderful videos from these beautiful boats and people.
The sound of that engine is so sweet! Awesome. Listening to that chug along is music to the ears! I think I would have trouble staying awake. It lulls you to relax so much. Hope she runs forever.
Love what you are doing
beautiful simplicity. Engineered to last.
Absolutely beautiful piece of machinery
Fantastic that Jan (rest in Peace) and Bea saved the boat and now with Paul's help.
They know the wonderful heritage behind it a how important it is to preserve.
Amazing.
Thank you. Lovely sound.
Would have loved a tour of the boat as well. Thank you!
Lovely video Thanks for the tour (and the subtitles)
Fascinating..! Love these story's ..
Loved every second of this video. Those motors are amazing
Thank you! Beautiful video.
Thank you for the subtitles. I love your well-shot videos with beautiful old engines. I wish more of them had subtitles!
i realize I'm kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to stream newly released tv shows online?
@Jesse Dawson lately I have been using flixzone. Just google for it :)
I have a great appreciation for older things and older times. More so every day but especially for boats. That appreciation goes to the others like me also that thrive off of maintaining and keeping these old machines alive for the next rare person to take over it's care. People like these are really the types that are truly way more important to the world than many get credit. Anyone with the will power to keep an old boat alive is a dam good person in my book.
What a boat! Lived in and loved. Anything else is cosmetics and cosmetics in a craft of this age and kind would spoil her. Thanks for showing her. Loved the execution of that turn, by the way. No fuss; no thrash; no screaming bow thruster!
I agree, the beautifully painted Bow is all she needs cosmetically
@@robmarykunzig5533 Absolutely! Less is more in so many ways. Cheers!
love it....so cool....
Beautiful.
Brought back fond memories of my youth on the canals of the Netherlands. Especially the small steel hulled barge I skippered for a summer in De Kaag. Slow and methodical was the name of the game as she would do as you asked, but only were patient. Thanks for sharing!
It's my favourite place , like the sound of these old engines.
Welnu maar eens een berichtje, ik vind dit een leuke serie! Heb interesse in deze oude 'altijd' werkende motoren, ook waardeer ik de 'rustige' wijze van filmen en bevraging!! Ga zo door zeg ik;-))
Mooie boot en motor!!!!!
Amazing.
Als jongen zwerfde/woonde ik in de rotterdamse haven. De binnenvaart was fascinerend voor my. Het was vrij toegangkelijk . Zelfs viel ik in het water en werd gered door de schipper. Die mensen hadden een goed leven, rustig en hun eigen baas. Leuk om deze wereld beter te leren kennen...
Heel mooi!
Nice video!
Prachtige vastlegging weer, hartelijk dank voor het maken van deze mini docu’s 👍
Fantastisch!
I love your videos.
Dit was vir my baie (baie = veel) lekker om na 'n Nederlandse video te kyk - nee, einttlik te luister. Ek is 'n Afrikaner en die woordeskat tussen Afrikaans en Nederlands is natuulik naby genoeg aan mekaar om mekaar te verstaan. Toe ek op hoërskool was, het ons nog elke jaar onder andere 'n Nederlandse voorgeskrewe boek deurgewerk as deel van Afrikaanse Letterkunde. Dit gebeur nie vandag meer nie en jong Afrikaners sukkel al meer met Nederlands.
Afrikaans is natuurlik ook op die universiteite onder geweldige druk - by die meeste verbode. Die rede is omdat Afrikaans die enigste Afrika-taal Suid van die Sahara is, wat 'n eie letterkunde en wetenskaplike publikasies het. Politici gee natuurlik 'n ander spin daaraan.
Prachtige mensen, prachtig schip, prachtige motor
lovely smooth idle and a lovely boat
Very nice.
Thanks
Not exactly like putting the key in the ignition switch and give it a twist, is it. That engine was installed the year I was born. Kitty seems right at home on the water.
I enjoyed this. I thank you for it.
That open air steering position would be nice in a wet or snowy day on the canals
We used to light a "squib" with a match and screw it into the cylinder head. Sometimes our manual flywheel swung 2-stroke Widdop diesel engine ran backwards, so then we had to re-start.
I had a old two stroke Detroit run backwards on me once lol
I've worked on a small railway inspection cart from the 1920's that uses its 630cc 2 cycle to reverse direction instead of using a gearbox, quite clever.
@@logantc.1353 Big marine diesel engines also. The engine is stopped, the camshaft re-positioned and the engine re-started. The ship then moves astern.
0:23; Jotul Christiansand 602N😅😅😅So einen Ofen hatte ich auch vor langer Zeit. Sehr schönes Video.👆👆👆👆 Viele Grüsse aus Germany
ever see those kids that are terrible at something but their parents keep encouraging them and telling them how good they are...thats this boat..
why
Love watching these videos of the classic barges I live on one and would love to meet anyone who has a good knowledge of them I live in maidstone kent England regards lindsay
Great Video' I am still working on my boat too a 23ft ketch. Two years behind schedule due to the COV-19 pandemic. Tom Ayr Scotland.
Keep at it Tom! It'll be well worth it when finished.
If its one thing I learned leave a man while hes in his routine, never interrupt him very impolite and gets his upset. Important to make sure all the valves switches, cranks have been cycled and set. Then the Beast wakes up and the sound of harmony comes to his ears.
Wonderful old equipment built when people tried to make things so they would last for ever.
Yep, and when engine parts wore out, you got spares from the manufacturer. No throwaway like now.
I don't inderstand a single word of Dutch but I love the sound it makes!
The motor looks reliable. Crazy, but reliable.
German guy here: Thank you for doing this rare subject - it is always a pleasure!!
I love to watch your videos - it is kind of relaxing to hear this engines run.
Btw: The subtitles are kind of irritating to me and I would like to be able to turn them off.
I can fully understand the attraction of these engines, and would love to be involved with something like that myself as my father was an engine room artificer in the South African Navy when they had some real clunkers. But I wonder how long before somebody pops a Tesla motor in here since they seem to be putting it in everywhere else :-)
Great sounding engine. I have a sabb diesel that uses the zundfix. I'm out of those so have to resort in a bit of oil into intake when really cold. Where can you buy the starting cigarettes?
Great video, thanks. I have the same engine but not in a boat but I thought these were a lot older than the 1950s. I thought mine was late 1920s. Anyway mine is for sale as I don't have a suitable boat for the engine and it needs to be used.
thank you all
In mijn boot doe ik ook vaak zulke startlontjes als ie koud is
heerlijk
My cat would be covered in grease trying to find the noises. Me on the other hand would probably fall asleep before I made it top side. Sign me up.
Good dat ick Plattdütsch kann :-)
The ship's cat 🤗
it is a nice noise to listen to
Mee - Not noise but music. These boats had three speeds-slow, slower & stop!
@@rogertycholiz2218 yeah ! it is music
Deze heb ik al gezien op je kanaal!
Of ben ik gek?
Maar ik vind je werk erg mooi ga zo door
Check out a Washington Estep diesel for a rhythm to rival johnny b Goode's locomotive.
I want one.
Credit due to them ⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💖
guud
I suppose every engine that is started with compressed air has an air compressor attached for replenishing the bottles.
For marine these engines where the perfect thing.............. their life is less end....
Hi When I worked on the tugs we had a 6 cyl 2 stroke Bolnes 400 hp Engine and in the cold weather used the fuses but we used to light them so they would smolder and warm the air, But here you did not, so how can the fuse warm the air if you don't light them ???.
ramseybarber - He just did it for show. Didn't need a fuse to start this engine this day.
@@rogertycholiz2218 Hi Roger I did wonder if it was that. Thanks.
if you think these sound nice, check out the EMD v16 two stroke locomotive
Anchor cat!😆
how far will bregta 'll go on a full tank
the preparations for a start sound rather complicated.
These people know what they are doing with an older type engine. Perhaps some expert environmentalist with five minutes experience can telll them where they are going wrong !
Ik kan de machine gewoon ruiken door de telefoon
Whats the point of using the Zündfix when you don't light it?
🤟🤟🤟🤟👍👍👍👍🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭 THAI LAND
Please have English subtitles
Kitty does not mind.
Waarom zetten juliie er geen stuurhuis op?
Gibt es das auch ohne Verbrennungsmotor?
Leuk verhaal weer.
07:14 subtitle shows bomb = look bad
2 stroke? Intake through the crankcase?
See Detroit diesels...yes, they have an oil filled crankcase.
No, they don't intake air through the crankcase...the air goes in basically half way up the cylinder liner...when the piston falls down past the ports...and the blower (not a supercharger)...then blows air into the cylinder.
The piston rising and the exhaust valve in the head opens...which blows the exhaust out the valve.
The exhaust valve shuts, the remaining air in the cylinder is compressed and the injector fires
The piston starts back down the cylinder and the 2 cycles start again.....

Op sokken in het motorruim
Going into the engine room with just socks on his feet?
Must be a very clean engine room eh?
00:27 Here is the REAL boss :-).
Das boot.
De boot.
Jan Pieter goes into the engine room in socks and is at the helm in shoes..
Schipper Huygen op sokken in de machinekamer ???🤔🤨 Oei ! Dat lijkt me niet zo heel erg veilig !!🙁
Better to feel the vibrations so he knows whether the engine is behaving normally?
#UnintentionalASMR
Why on Caterpillar or MAN ? , reason poor or fun ?
He needs to Build his Wife A Patio over that boat.
it says "engine room". but they called it a motor. is this a motor or an engine?
Kirby - Engines are driven by some kind of fuel compressed by internal combustion making BHP. Motors use electricity making BHP.
@@rogertycholiz2218 General Motors dont use electricity to make BHP.
@@kirbylee57 They do import the squeal from the scrapple factories to put in their brakes.
This is a language difference. Many English-speakers say "engine" for a heat engine. Evidently Netherlanders say "motor" if it brings about motion.
India So Much Squid Jumbo
"sailing" - a confusing word. Means powered by sails, or traveling over water. The used meaning was figured out pretty quickly, but English does need to do better.
this boat needs a pair of big Merc V8s in the back, to motivate her a little.
