Experience Report: 20 Yachtline – Tuna

Boat beginners are enthusiastic

Our first trip took place in May.

We bought our first boat, Leni, right after the driving test, so we wanted to try out the new boat as soon as possible. The excitement was high.

We chose the Danube around Regensburg as a route because we can get there quickly. The 2.28-meter-wide boat is only slightly wider than the tow vehicle, so the trip with the trailer went smoothly.

When we arrived at the Kapfelberg marina, we registered with the harbormaster in charge and launched the boat ourselves with our car. One of us parked the car with the empty trailer, while the second mate stayed on board and set off. Once we were all on board, we made our first trip to Regensburg and were immediately impressed by the boat’s performance. The high freeboard had a positive effect on the swell.

On the way back, we were unexpectedly hit by a rainstorm. We quickly set up the camping awning with side panels, which had never been tried before, and were able to reach our starting point with dry feet, where we easily pulled Leni out of the water.

Our Leni gave us a lot of fun on subsequent excursions. We can spontaneously decide on one or the other boat trip at any time.

The small boat offers plenty of storage space for all kinds of safety equipment and there is plenty of space on board with your friends.

We are very happy with our boat purchase.

Best regards, family U.
