The EH6
was originally built in 1934 in Lemmer as a so-called milkschouw, taking milk from the pasture in Friesland to the milk factory. Therefore, the little ship is also quite narrow (3m) for its length (9.3m) to fit through all the small bridges and locks. The hull was built by eye, without any kind of construction plan, it is nowhere straight and no two pieces are the same (BB vs. SB).
Later the ship sailed in Urk as a fisherman, and then in Enkhuizen, hence the name.
During the war the ship was submerged and people found it again in the 1950s. The hull turned out to be still good and it was converted into a sailing yacht with a cabin in 1957.
In the 1960s, the Dutch minesweeper "the Badjang" was returned to den Helder from Indonesia and wound down. Parts of the interior have been incorporated into the EH6.
