    The Zaandam will sail into the port of Corner Brook later this month as part of Holland America’s 150th anniversary.

    The Zaandam is due to arrive at the Port of Corner Brook Wednesday as part of Holland America’s 150th anniversary. The vessel carries over 1400 passengers and more than 600 crew. Jennifer Hartley is the business development manager at the port. She says August 28th will be an inaugural call which means it will be the vessel’s first call to Corner Brook. Hartley says they will be going on board to present the Captain with a plaque, especially since this is their 150th anniversary.
