The boat was unfortunately quite old and didn't have a depth sounder, as stated in the description. That was actually one of the main reasons I rented the boat, because there are a lot of shallows in the area. The navigation system was either not explained properly, or it simply wasn't effective. Luckily, I had a navigation app on my phone; without it, I would have been in a real bind.
Das Boot war leider ziemlich alt und hatte auch kein Echolot, wie in der Beschreibung vermerkt. Das war eigentlich einer der zentralen Gründe, weshalb ich das Boot gemietet hatte, weil es in dem Fahrtgebiet sehr viel Untiefen gibt. Das Navigationssystem wurde entweder nicht richtig erklärt, oder es war auch nicht zielführend. Zum Glück hatte ich noch eine Navigations App auf dem Handy, ohne die wäre ich schlecht dran gewesen
We had the pleasure of discovering these magnificent islands of the Ria Formosa. A big thank you to Catarina for her professionalism and kindness.
