Helgoland – SR30 YACHTLINE Yacht Cruise

Hello everyone!

I want to tell you about our trip to Heligoland. There were five of us on board, my parents, my sister and a boat instructor. We sailed with our boat “KarMaViDa” (SR30 YACHTLINE). The brave journey started on August 22, 2017 with a wind force from 3 to 4 on August 22, 2017. It went from Tönning via Eider via the Eider Dam to the North Sea.

Our friends with a 6 meter boat first followed us out to sea. But then they had to turn back because of the waves. When we could no longer see land, bigger waves came our way. But we stayed strong and our boat brought us safely to Heligoland.

As soon as we arrived in the harbor, the next problem continued. Where should we dock? It was difficult to find a place as most of the sailboats were in a parcel. After a while we found what we were looking for and started a small discovery tour. The next day started with breakfast on the beach. It continued with a tour around the whole island. Meanwhile, my sister decided to go back to the mainland.

So there were only four of us at 16:00 p.m. This time the sea was much calmer, so we could sunbathe even in the back seat and only the boat instructor had to drive.

Later that evening we returned to the harbor of Tönning. But the fall came earlier than expected. We tried to enter the harbor somehow through the tidal creek.

We saw a police boat. He instructed us that we could moor to a cruise ship. So we passed the tide comfortably and ended our beautiful trip.

Our boat now found its place in the harbor of Rheinau. And the whole family is happy to be able to take the best-priced boat SR30 YACHTLINE every time again.

September 2016, we visited the Interboot in Friedrichshafen because we wanted to see the new and affordable boat SR30 YACHTLINE. We already had a Drago 29 with a normal hull, but we wanted to replace the boat with a boat with a wide-beam hull. We liked the SR30 YACHTLINE with its sleek look and so we bought a Drago 29 SR30 YACHTLINE.

We were able to take delivery of the boat in March 2017 and first lowered it by crane on the Rhine. This summer there was a dock in the harbor of Philippsburg.

Until the summer vacation we spent many weekends on the boat and also went on a multi-day trip to Loreley.

During the summer vacation, as every year, a three-week vacation in Croatia was planned. We set off in the second week of vacation. Our destination was Jezera on the island of Murter. There the boat docked.
The car and trailer stayed outside the harbor for three weeks. We spent our first two nights in Jezera to get used to it, then the tour started. We spent the first night in a bay with a few other boats in the package, the next day we set off for Vis.

We visited the blue cave on Vis, a small neighboring island and then anchored in a wonderful bay for swimming.

We spent the night in the port of Vis. There we met a family traveling with 29 YACHTLINE. We went together as we had planned the same route for the rest of the holiday. Our next stop was Korcula, a beautiful island with great anchorages. The city of Korcula is an absolute must. However, in high season you should reserve a bed there a few days in advance, otherwise you have no chance. Finally we went to Dubrovnik where we spent three nights. The city is worth a visit. The port was outside the city and we were happy to make ourselves comfortable in our SR30 in the evening. Then the trip was back again. Just after Dubrovnik we had to go to Mljet bay due to a violent storm. We went to a safe bay and sat out of the storm.

The last stopover on the way back before we ended our vacation in Jezera was Solta.

The three-week round trip with our comfortable SR30 YACHTLINE was a complete success and we had a lot of fun.

Best regards
