Experience report 20 -Yachtline- Rhine and Main

First boat

Finally the time has come. My wife and I had been waiting a long time for a boat license. We researched and compared for a long time until we came across the Öchsner company. A viewing appointment was quickly arranged and what looked good in the pictures of the boat was in reality exactly what we were looking for. A boat that can be towed well for the family to do more and more small and large tours on the Rhine and Main.

We signed the contract the same day. Now all that was missing was the driving license

Shortly afterwards the boat was registered and after the briefing we drove back to Kürnach to take the boat with us. The entire “Öchsner” team can only be praised; the theoretical and practical training was great!

And now, our boat was waiting for its first use. As soon as the tests passed, we launched “Kowi 1” and were ready to go. Due to the extremely low tide we had to tow our boat with a crane. We had great day trips on the Rhine almost every day, exploring the tributaries and anchoring in various places.

20 -Yachtline- is a really great family and entry level boat. The driving behavior is very good, so it is safe to steer even for someone with no previous experience.

And yes, our kids love it….
