Nederlands
------------

De ‘Amical’ (Dordrecht, 1914) was de laatste Belgische stoomsleepboot. Voor W.O.II bestond de vloot binnenvaartuigen vooral uit vaartuigen zonder motor. Om ze op hun bestemming te krijgen werden tegen betaling sleepboten ingezet, zoals de ‘Amical’ er een is. In 1986 schonken de eigenaars hun boot aan het Scheepvaartmuseum.
Deze twee vaartuigen worden door vrijwilligers onderhouden. Dit is opnieuw waardevol maritiem erfgoed, dat echter door een gebrek aan middelen bedreigd is.
