Should I book this train ASAP? Or can I just get them on the fly, when I am in Amsterdam?
I am going from hoek van holland @ 2200 on a night ferry over to harwich.
does this train stop in rotterdam?

Domestic trains in Holland don't accept advance reservations. But, you shouldn't have any problems getting a seat.

You should book the ferry tickets in advance. You can use any train station in Holland to purchase rail tickets to anywhere.

Yup, I got a ferry for overnight from hook of holland to harwich...departs 2200, arrives 630 in harwich.
91 GBP seems high, but at least we got a cabin, which should be pretty cool/interesting.
I have been through the chunnel, but never on a ferry over that open water!

Enjoy. The best overnight ferry trip in Europe is between Stockholm and Helsinki; the scenery is spectacular!
