Delivery of the Drago 29 WB in Kürnach on April 14, 2016

Dear Öchsner team,

First of all, thank you very much for the fast and correct delivery of our new boat Drago 29 Wide Beam. On Thursday, April 14, 2016 at 10 am we started to take delivery of the boat with Mr. Küffner, the remaining formalities and documents were explained in detail and handed over to us. Then we went to the saloon with Florian Öchsner and started the first briefing on dry land. He explained the instructions in the trailer very well so that almost no question was left unanswered.

Then we went to the ferry on the Main in sunny weather and with a fresh breeze. First of all we skied very carefully, even as experienced boaters we were happy to have the skiing process explained to us again and to learn a few tricks in the process. Then we got excited on the Main, the engine started immediately and did its job as it should, we were absolutely thrilled with the 220 hp diesel D3 Volvo Penta and above all with the trim assistant, which was absolutely fantastic. After the intensive briefing we slid smoothly onto the trailer and tied the boat up properly. In the workshop we were warmly welcomed by the whole team, where I insisted on toasting the boat.

We were now allowed to hold on and drive to Ludwigshafen on the Rhine, where we slipped smoothly and tied our boat to our dock.

Then we had the first test drive on the Rhine with 7 people (experienced men and women), which was a pleasure, how fast and smooth it was, gliding very fast against the current (at a flow speed of about 12 km/h), Impressive performance.

The Oechsners didn’t promise too much, we were absolutely thrilled and will gladly recommend the Oechsner family and team and hope to stay in touch for a long time. It was a perfect fit.

Hubert and Gudrun, Schwetzingen
