Broeker Veiling – Ship

Broeker Veiling – Ship
The auction in Broek op Langedijk was established in 1887 and was the first Dutch auction. The auction hall dates from 1912. Ships with produce would come from the nearby small fields and would sail through the auction hall.

At least the trees got a chance to view the world.

What I understand is that wooden ships require constant sanding and painting to protect the wood.
