Experience report 23 YACHTLINE

On 6 May 16, 23 we picked up our Drago 23 from the Öchsner company. After administrative matters, Mr. Öchsner went on a briefing trip to Main. Mr. Öchsner gave us some important tips and advice. I immediately tested the boat myself. After the very informative trip on the Main, we went back to the company building where the boat was professionally tied up and ready for the trip. After a 4-hour trip we happily arrived at Hard on Lake Constance.

The next day we named our modern boat Zoe and friends and acquaintances were very enthusiastic about the boat. I would like to point out that our guests were “connoisseurs”. We especially liked the very well thought-out details of the boat and of course the attractive design.

Due to the weather and also due to time, the “Zoe” finally landed on the water on Saturday morning, May 21. The engine (Volvo-Penta) started immediately on the first try and we drove from the harbor area towards the lake (Lake Constance). Once again, the very smooth and quiet running of the Volvo Penta 4.2l, V6 engine was remarkable. After the warm-up phase, I boarded the boat without any problems. My daughter and I had big grins on our faces during the trip. The acceleration and running characteristics of the Drago 23 are simply amazing. We traveled from Hard to Höchst (Rhine delta) and from there to Lindau/Bregenz and back to Hard.

The hard water characteristics of the Drago 23 are also very good. The waves of about 0.5 m are hardly noticeable when gliding (40 km/h). Although I only used the boat for a short time, the mooring maneuvers in the harbor are absolutely smooth. The Drago 23 can be controlled very precisely.

Thanks again to the Öchsner team, we are having a lot of fun and joy with our Drago 23.
Greetings from Lake Constance!
