W.S.V. De Oude Ijssel

W. S. V. De Oude IJssel is a marina and watersport association situated on the Oude IJssel at Barend Ubbinkweg in Doesburg, directly beside the Doesburg lock.

Founded in 1938 as a sailing club, the association now serves a membership that is predominantly motorboat-oriented, while also accommodating individual scullers.

It holds around 70 permanent berths and a number of visitor berths, along with a boat slipway for hauling vessels out of the water.

The marina lies just above the lock that connects the Gelderse IJssel to the Oude IJssel, a quiet, low-current waterway often compared to the Vecht.

Notably, the Netherlands' largest fish passage emerges within the marina grounds, where visitors can watch fish swim past behind glass. The historic Hanseatic town of Doesburg, with its museums, restaurants, and shops, is within easy walking distance.
