Overall rating
We had excellent sailing experinece with Peter's sailboat. We had very good overview of the boat by Peter upon arrival. The communication was very fast and even during out trip when we had questions about harbours. Lake vänern reminded a lot finnish archipelago.
It's a fantastic and solid boat. It has an extremely well built steel hull!! No need to worry about gales on this boat. Mind you, it IS a boat from the 80's and you have to remember that little things may need replacement from time to time but the boat is well taken care of by the owner, Peter, who puts a lot time and energy into keeping it up to high standards. We had a great time exploring Lake Vänern, the Swedish West Coast and even went to Skagen and Laeso, with it. I'll be thinking about renting this one again. Thanks!
Booking and handover worked perfectly. Peter takes a lot of time for the handover and is really helpful.
Peter is an excellent host who gives you confidence on the boat. Very good boat, solid and well maintained, the boat is older but keeps all its essence intact, it is a great boat. Very good attention and service from Peter, solving problems such as charging our electric rental car. We will surely repeat.
A boat not necessarily for beginners. Due to its size and weight, the boat only really gets going when there is more wind. Unfortunately, the hydraulic control is a bit indirect so that you have no feedback from the rudder. Due to the construction height you can also sail without a sail.
