The Marabou itself was new and technically perfect. Everything worked.
The takeover and handover was not well organized, there are obviously few staff, so there are very long waiting times. The fact that the ship was only moderately clean inside, the railing supports were encrusted with salt and the windows of the sprayhood were opaque, was annoying.
Die Marabou selbst war neu und technisch einwandfrei. Es hat alles funktioniert.
Nicht gut organisiert war die Übernahme und Übergabe, es gibt offensichtlich wenig Personal, so dass es zu sehr langen Wartezeiten kommt Dass das Schiff dann nicht nur innen nur mäßig sauber war, Relingsstützen salzverkrustet und die Scheiben der Sprayhood undurchsichtig, war dann schon ärgerlich.
The equipment was mediocre. The holding tank smelled badly when full. The cooker had no attachment for the pot holders at the top. Flaws: anchor light broken, log broken. The life jackets were of the lowest standard, not swoon proof. No light on the vest, no belt to pull out. Boat hook defective. Anchor winch defective, gearbox damage, too old, too cheap.
Die Ausstattung war mittelgut. Der Fäkalientank hat stark gerochen, wenn voll. Der Herd hatte oben keine Befestigung für die Topfhalterungen. Mängel: Ankerlicht kaputt, Logge kaputt. Die Rettungswesten waren auf niedrigstem Standard, nicht ohnmachtssicher. Kein Licht an der Weste, kein Gurt zum rausziehen. Bootshaken defekt. Ankerwinsch defekt, Getriebeschaden, zu alt, zu billig.
Another fabulous week sailing the Ionian, overall the boat was a great size and layout for its age, a few niggly problems the main one being the windlass, which intermittently failed. The maintenance team did say would fix it before the next charter
Key points:
- The boat was received earlier. Thank you for that.
- Due to the COVID pandemic, the cleaning is significantly improved.
- Few technical difficulties with the boat, but nothing major.
- The staff on site is very supportive.
I will definitely recommend your company (and others also) in Lefkas.
