On the 12th of February in 1992 the ferryman association “Spreewald Friends” - „Kahnfährmannsverein der Spreewaldfreunde e.V.“ was founded. After existing already 2 years as a community of friends of the traditional Spreewald punt riding the nine members got together to offer special tours for tourists. We created a conception which helped to tell apart the members of the ferrymen association from the other ferrymen. Not only the soon well-known green jackets of the ferrymen, also the cozy traditional boats distinguish our ferryboat company. In the meantime our association has 30 active members as well as additional sponsoring members. We are now the second biggest ferry company in the whole Spreewald.
