The port restaurant is very good! The interior of the ship is very good. The boat is well maintained inside, all kinds of repair, conversion, cleaning equipment, chemicals, sponges, rags, tableware, etc. can be found in it. In medium or strong winds, we only used the headsail and it was great to move with it. Engine operation is quiet and smooth. There is a solar cell, there were no problems with batteries. At mooring, the port staff pays attention to all incoming ships and offers assistance.
The inside of the ship (Bavaria 38 - "Why Not") is unbearably smelly at the moment, something has flowed into the bottom of the ship on the left side and is fermenting under the kitchen furniture. Obviously, a thorough underfloor cleaning can only help with this. The stopwatch of the Gross Top rope allows you to return, only it remains on the winch. At the base of the mast, the Gross Ref pulleys are missing at the trailing edge pull-down rope, so the mainsail could only be reefed by force. The starboard stopper that sets the headsail "windcar" also allows it to pass. Capesail roller is a bit difficult to move. There is an autopilot, but it doesn't work, it just struggles. Speedometer not working. Due to the sinking of the ship, it is still stuck at the entrance of the port of Lelle with weak throttle, but with the engine it is going through it with medium throttle. Unfortunately, millions of orphaned mosquitoes await those returning to the ship in the evening at Lellén. In the morning, all boats must be heavily washed!

The new port building and its restaurant + port environment Fast and efficient administration when handing over and taking back a ship
The day before our trip, it turned out that the ship was not in the indicated port (the map indicates it on the boarding card, but it is the other port), so we booked our accommodation 1.5 km away. Every afternoon and morning, it was an extra car trip, which is not a great pleasure in the huge traffic in the afternoon. There were a lot of spiders and cobwebs inside and outside the ship.

A perfect harbor with a good restaurant and friendly staff.
Poor cleanliness of the ship, bed linen could also be washed, broken anchor. The boat was older, but everything else worked :-)

the facilities of the marina at a very good level, very good communication when ordering the boat and friendly negotiations
neglected maintenance of the boat - front and rear hatch leaking, non-functioning autopilot, GPS plotter cannot be read, stuck mainsail lift (repair), missing weather vane on the main mast, empty PB bottle, insufficient depth in the fairway when leaving and entering the marina
