    Heerlijk weekend gehad. Wel moeten de rubbers vervangen worden bij het slaapkamerraam aan de voorkant. Dit is eigenlijk het enige advies want voor de rest een heerlijke boot om van te genieten.

    -Genoeg ruimte, fijne bedden. - Behoorlijk groot en breed schip wel wat ervaring en rust vereist. Hek en boegschoef maken het varen wat makkelijker. Huur hem als hij volgend jaar weer vrij is nog een keer. We hadden het geluk dat we eerder konden Inchecken en uitchecken. Contact erg fijn.

    We hadden de boot al in oktober vorig jaar gereserveerd, niet wetende dat het (op 1 avond na) zulk fantastisch vaarweer zou worden. De boot was top, op een paar lekkages na, vrijdag 19 juni was er noodweer in heel Nederland en we hadden gelukkig pannen aan boord die het water konden opvangen. De rubbers rondom het luik aan de voorkant waren verweerd en boven de bank drupte het. Ook stond er dat er tv aan boord was... niet gezien? We hebben toen de voetbal (Ned-Zweden) in Bolsward gekeken.
