Easyflow stirring for the He-Jo

Our machine factory handles both new construction and repairs. The innovative Easyflow rudder is widely used in inland shipping. Henk and Johanna van der Zijden's He-Jo also sails with this fuel-saving rudder system.

"According to Matthijs Versluis, a saving of 10 per cent is achievable, but even if we only achieve half that, I'll be happy," says skipper Van der Zijden. Having heard good things about De Waal, he decided to opt for this innovative rudder system. In addition to fuel savings, he also hopes for better manoeuvrability, one of the advantages of this rudder system.
