Sail Amsterdam
On the last two days of the 2015 IASS symposium
the 5-yearly SAIL Amsterdam event will start. Sail
Amsterdam is the biggest event in the Netherlands.
From our conference location we will have an excellent
view on the waterfront and the “Sail-in” with about 30
tall sailing ships and hundreds of smaller vessels. It is
possible to visit the tall ships. More information on SAIL
Amsterdam can be found on www.sail.nl
The historic city of Amsterdam, museums, Sail
Amsterdam and other interesting things to be seen
in the rest of the Netherlands might be an excellent
reason to stay some more days after the symposium.
