The boat sailed well, the layout was great, and the galley was spacious.
The boat desperately needs a complete refit, starting with the bow thruster, which barely delivers any power. The boat suffered a major impact on the port side, and the resulting damage only became apparent during the charter period: the window frame was almost completely detached (4 meters)! We constantly had water in the cabin, creating a slip hazard. The stove and automatic gas supply were broken, only the main switch worked, and the shower pump didn't function! We encountered three tornadoes within six hours in the Jugo wind – fun and a real vacation killer! Finally, due to bad weather, we had to return to the harbor two days early. It was already packed, with small boats moored at the entrance to the dock, not on the towpath. Thanks to the barely effective bow thruster and the extremely narrow channel, we got stuck on a mooring with our similarly damaged rudder by just 10 cm. The €1,500 damage is our responsibility, which was considered a particularly generous calculation. In my 35 years I have never experienced anything like this: no diving equipment, no drying towels in the laundry package, not even clothespins!
