Everything went great, the yacht is from 2010, so the interior finish is not very fresh in my opinion. Next time I will take a 1-2 year old one.
Great marina in the city center, close to beaches and restaurants. The parking spot was the farthest one, so it was easy to leave and dock.
On the downside - the marina recently installed access by fingerprint, the owner couldn't organize keys or a password for us. He apologized a lot for that, we had to either climb over or wait for someone to come out. In the shower, we had to keep an eye out until someone came out or ask other skippers to open it.

Sergio, our local contact, was always available. The boat was well equipped for life on board. We appreciated the two refrigerators, the bimini, and the cockpit cover. The black water tank generates odors that should be eliminated. While sailing, the boat performs well, averaging 5/6 knots with 2/3 Beaufort over 230 nautical miles. It is less comfortable when sailing at 20/22 knots on a close reach. There are not enough handrails inside, and the organization of the deck is not very practical. The saloon is comfortable. The steering wheel is very large, which is nice while sailing but cumbersome in port as it does not allow enough passage. It might be better to replace it with a folding wheel on a boat of this size. The navigation instruments are efficient, but the service battery capacity was out of service after 5 hours of sailing under autopilot. The dinghy should be inflatable as it is cumbersome without davits. We will keep excellent memories of our cruise.

Thank you to Sergio who went above and beyond to help us throughout the preparation of this cruise. Until next time.
