Zeemansvrouwen should have been the first spoken Dutch movie, but due to technical problems it became the last silent movie. In 2003 the Dutch Filmmuseum reissued the movie with a soundtrack by Henny Vrienten. The dialogues were recovered with the help of deaf people, the remaining part of the dialogues were written by Lodewijk de Boer. The voices are spoken by a.o.: Jeroen Krabbé;, Nelly Frijda en Judy Doorman.
