Thank you for sending me the review of Mr. Stefano.
I would like to send you more reviews, especially the reviews of the guests the week right before and the week right after Mr Stefano. You will realize there were 5 stars for:
Compliance of the boat
Comfort on board
Standard of maintenance
Cleanliness
Welcome and communication
Value for money
I enclose copies with phone numbers and e-mails, but you can find the originals on other website , if you request for a 14-15 m sailing boat, in Corfu, in the last weeks of October, when DESTINY is still available.
Concerning Mr Stefano:
On 5 Aug, in an open gulf in Ithaca, he mentioned that the anchor chain “gave up” . The chain was released from the winch. This happens when you “unlock” the winch, and you don’t “lock” it properly. Following our instructions he “locked” the electric winch and pulled the anchor chain. The port of Ithaka “Vathy” was nearby, but he felt safe, and he spent the night in this gulf, without any intervention to the chain. He never had any further problem with the winch.
It was good luck that the yacht did not crash into the rocks.
On 6 Aug, the tracker showed that the yacht was sailing at maximum speed (8-9 Knots). Since there was no wind, this meant that the engine was forced to run at maximum power. It is like running your car at 7000 rpm for a long period of time. I checked this several times and I sent him a message, advising him to stop pushing the engine at its limits because it would be damaged. He reduced speed immediately. He mentioned that it was a “current” that pushed the yacht. There are no strong currents in the Ionian Sea. However there have been “currents” after this event.
I was good luck the engine was not damaged.
On 9 Aug, he returned to Corfu and I did the checkout myself. I always ask if there is any problem with the yacht, to fix it. He only mentioned that the base of the solar panel, over the bimini, was loose and that he had fixed it. He had lost a fender, but I did not charge him for that.
He mentioned “several problems” in his review. Which problems? Why he did not mention these problems to me when I did the check out. Why the previous and following guest did not find these “problems”? He wrote “tubazioni scarico ostruite”, clogged exhaust pipes. This is the first time I hear that, and no engineer or guests have ever found that.
Mr Stefano rate the yacht 4/5 but he does not recommend for charter (?) .
By the way, our other common guest, returned from his sailing holidays, and was very happy.
