The "bog digging machine" is now the main feature of the bog-museum and on September 23 this museum happened to be the host of the start of the second leg in the Turfrace (see Turfrace). The crews start running to their ships with one minute intervals. On the pano you can see the crew of the Zwaan, on the way to their ship for the 50 km return leg to Warmond. For more impressions of the whole race, see the photo-site of the Stichting Zeilvaart Warmond.
Nowadays, the Vinkeveense Plassen (as the lake is called now) is a fantastic recreational area. On the stretched islands you can see hundreds of small holiday homes and there are lots and lots of small pleasure boats around.
