In October 2005 we went to Sailing World in Lemmer. We were well supported: professional and friendly. Without any problem we could have a look at all the large inventory of sailboats. They gave us the keys of the boats in which we were particularly interested. No pressure from the salesman. We enjoyed our stay very much and were very trilled about the large choise of boats.
We were especially focused on Bavaria ships. The choice was quickly made and the sale closed.

At my request and I boat, before he went to water, yet it also could put in the antifouling was made easy. A repair was suggested by me and repaired in a professional manner and at the expense of the vendor. Obviously we have the boat cleaned and provided with our own accents. It is very important the give the boat a personal look. |
We agreed the boat to leave port no earlier as the 1st April 2006.
Some small repairs were necessary. The two batteries I have to replace. I repaired the valve of the boiler and repaired the autopilot. We also left open the rig, and even replace crops.
All equipment is inventoried and photographed, and via the Internet we have downloaded the manuals of the equipment and printed all the manuals.
Two large folders with information on the boat there and have proven their worth on several occasions.
As virtually all equipment was new to me, I'm very engrossed in the operation. It took some time, but until April 1, we could not sail and the winter was very, very long.
Our children and their friends were enthusiastic from the beginning. Only the boat name was not fancy enough and should definitely be changed. Nice job for the children.
And we baptize him 
, of course name after the famouse song of Pink Floyd.
