If you'd like to know why we named the boat ARION - well, we liked the story. And if you don't happen to have a book of classical stories, we've found it on the Internet. Read the story for yourselves.
Arion is now in Croatia - and you can come sailing with us.
The yacht has a fore and aft cabin with
three bunks in each, a washroom with toilet, and a U-shaped dinette with
the galley opposite. The navigational equipment is located in the wheelhouse
and comprises log, echosounder, compass display, VHF radio, Loran C, Robertson
Autopilot, GPS, radar, short wave transmitter. Under the wheelhouse the
engine room contains a Perkins 50 hp diesel motor, diesel tanks for 450
litres, hot water boiler (1,000 l fresh water on board) and the batteries
for the 12, 24 und 220 V power supplies. The batteries are charged by a
solar panel and by the engine which also provides the hot water and the
refrigeration if it runs about 30 minutes a day.
The yacht has everything you need on holiday
- after all, she we lived aboard for 6 years! This is no "bare"boat charter
yacht but a home. Our homepage has details of this season's
sailing plan - book early, particularly if you want to come in the
main season!
