before the lakes on either side of de rijp were pumped dry, de rijp was a port town with merchant ships that travelled the high seas on trade routes. the town had a medium-sized herring fleet, and searched for whales with larger ships. rijper vessels travelled regularly to spitsbergen. after the success of the polders near alkmaar and egmond, plans were formed to make polders of the other lakes in north holland, including the ones on both sides of de rijp. in 1605 de rijp split off from graft and became a relief center for the effort to pump the beemster dry. the project was run by the architect-engineer jan leeghwater, who had been born in de rijp and even designed the town hall.
