A day of team-building, sailing, and treasure hunting on the Vinkeveense Plassen
Once a year, the Roboat team sets off for what we proudly call Roboat Adventure Day – a day dedicated to stepping away from our screens and diving into a bit of hands-on, real-world fun.
This year, we swapped automated navigation for manual control and took to the waters of the Vinkeveense Plassen in dinghies. The mission? A high-spirited treasure hunt across the lake’s many islands, guided by maps, riddles, and a series of challenges that tested both our teamwork and sailing skills.
The journey led us to a special destination: a private island owned by our lead hardware engineer. There, we wrapped up the day around a bonfire, with fishing rods in hand, snacks within reach, and even a few remote-controlled toy boats zipping around.
It was the perfect mix of adventure, collaboration, and laughter, reminding us that great ideas start with strong teams, both on and off the water.
