Cobra 38 - I do not recommend it. On the part of the charter provider: the cushions of the couch in the cabin are very dirty, probably never washed. No kettle to boil water (increased risk of burns). Color markings of the chain (every 10 meters) do not match the description on the cover, which is misleading when issuing the chain. Notes on the boat: The boat is quite fast, especially in half-wind and broadside (with four a little more than 8 knots |), but it does not go to the wind well. With a good three and a full tip, a maximum of 45-50 degrees to the wind, above the mule. Instead of a decent genoa, a small seal on the rolers, because it is difficult to call it a genoa. 1. Despite the nominal length, a cramped cabin at the expense of a longer cockpit. Due to the straight, vertical stem, there is an extended anchor bowsprit. No seat in the bow. A serious design error is the anchor chain compartment - it is extended towards the bow cabin, which makes it unnecessarily large, but shallow. As a result, when selecting the chain, the links form a cone, which after a few meters blocks the lift, and the chain must be pulled back by hand or a hook. High risk of your hand getting caught in the elevator modes if the elevator direction suddenly changes. Two people are needed to select the anchor - bizarre. 2. Cockpit table at knee height, completely impractical 3. Very small lockers 4. No reading lights in cabins. 5. Bathroom mirror placed at waist level - a stupid idea 6. Displays of navigational instruments placed at the steering wheels so close to each other that the protective rubber pads no longer enter 7. Cockpit shower exit placed in the middle of the cockpit instead of close to the transom, a hard-to-reach place 8. B. poor ventilation of the cabin due to small vents 9. Sharp corners of the kitchen worktop 10. Access to the engine lever via the steering wheel 11. Engine control panel positioned so that reading is practically impossible (above the cockpit floor) 12. The refrigerator cover, which is part of the kitchen worktop, is not flush with the worktop, but is a few mm lower, as a result, all crumbs from the worktop fall into the refrigerator

Unfortunately, the charter company forbids taking dogs with you, so unexpectedly, because everyone else doesn't do it, we had to bring our dog at home. A consultation on site has shown that this would be handled because of the risk of allergies. I think that with an additional 80 to 100 euros (price with other charter companies) a thorough cleaning would be possible. Unfortunately, we can no longer book with this charter company.

The platform shower was missing, the outdoor speakers do not speak ...!

Slow internet, but all ok.
