    History
     
    In 1914 Gilles Paulus started the current ferry company with a ferry connection on the Maas between Velden and Grubbenvorst. Gilles had always sailed on the Maas with his cargo ship. However, his wife wanted to set foot so it was decided to settle in Grubbenvorst. Gilles received the exploitation rights from the ferry service Velden - Grubbenvorst and also earned a little extra by catching eels. His wife ran the café on the Grubbenvorster side of the Maas and acted as a ferry woman when Gilles was not there. After his son Herman and subsequently his grandson Giel continued the ferry connection, grandson Ton took over the operation of the ferry service on 1 November 1973.
