Our Dufour 24 will be based in Moana opposite Vigo on the ria de Vigo.Taking the boat there sometime next week. AThere is already a Dufour 24 along the pontoon and already we have work todo making a step to clamber aboard,that or a box.Apart from that we have electricity and water included in rental price.By the marina office are the temporary toilets and showers whilst new ones are being built.The marina staff are pleasant and helpful and the wife has expressed her feelings that even if we don’t go sailing she is happy to be afloat…..what more can I ask for🤔😂🙂

The 22 lighting colour options is obviously the clincher! :ROFLMAO:

I used to cool the wine (on those rare occasion one was trying to cool it, rather than stop it from freezing!), by putting bottle (alongside unopened milk, etc.) in a plastic carrier bag dangled in the sea by a bit of rope.

Milk already opened, butter, etc. would be cooled by evaporation - a bucket, in whatever was the shadiest bit of the cockpit at the time, with a bit of water in the bottom, and a wet teacloth draped over the contents to be cooled and reaching into the water.

If only I'd known I could have had a less cluttered cockpit for the outlay of a mere twelve hundred quid. :rolleyes: (I've bought and sold whole boats for less!)

If we have a long enough extension to the marina plug we can zoom about with all mod cons!8

No, it adds to the small boat aesthetic by cluttering up the cabin because there's nowhere else to put it, when all the lockers are the wrong shape, size or already full up. 😁

I have a vague recall the previous owner said he was leaving the paddle board as part of the inventory……….I think that will be finding a new home😂
