Welcome at Euros Zeilen!
Who we are
D.Z. Euros is the student sailing association of Enschede. We are the oldest association at the University of Twente since the university was founded. Over the years we have grown as an association, with an extensive, varied fleet that our members can sail with. At Euros you can enjoy different sailing styles, including: sea sailing and racing on our 9m "Jaffa", cruising on the Waddenzee and Friesland on our two small cabin cruisers, active sailing on our Laser 2's or cruising on skûtsjes.
Almost every Wednesday there is a drink in the Sevende Camer, our bar at the University Watersport complex. In winter, we maintain our fleet in our large warehouse on Monday.
Introduction weekend
Our introduction programme gives you the opportunity to get to know our association, our members, and the sport of sailing. During the weekend (April 5-7), we will sail with some of our boats along with a bunch of rental boats. During the weekend we will discover Friesland from the water.
The costs for the complete weekend will be 70 euros. This will include amongst others food, accommodation and others costs. However, alcoholic drinks and the train ticket costs will not be included in this price.
We will take the train on Friday afternoon/evening from Enschede to the beautiful province of Fryslân. We will get aboard the boats and the next morning we will set sail to enjoy the countryside, lakes and canals Fryslân has to offer. During the weekend we will sleep, eat and drink onboard the boats. On Sunday afternoon/evening we will take the train back to Enschede. Besides this sailing activity we will have drinks at our own bar, de Sevende Camer. Before the weekend there will be a drink to get to know each other before the sailing weekend. You can enroll yourself to these activities.
