Was a fine boat! A few things took getting used to: you only have 1 jib sheet, so no one has to help when you tack. And in the front there were two sleeping lofts. These were on the small side, sort of 1.5 persons. Really less for the adults in the front, especially if you are not a couple. Other than that it was a fine equipped boat.

Smooth check in and out, yacht well maintained, sails well,. NCP staff are very friendly and helpful. Beautiful sailing area that has something for every type of sailor. A top location with a beautiful sailing yacht and a cool crew.

Yacht ok Poor design features from Lagoon which I hadn’t experienced before: 1. Door handles had sharp edges - all the crew had scares by end of cruise. 2. Draw/cupboard handles as above - if your shorts had pockets you kept catching them 3. BIG ISSUE - you need to be very careful raising the main as it has a double rope on a block with a strap to support the flat top cat sail. If you are not careful you can raise the main and it all gets twisted on the way up and jams at the top. I’ve sailed for 30 years and never had a main sail stuck up. Thank god we happened to be going past the home marina and it was a calm day. Staff had to go to top of mast to sort out! 4. Air con wasn’t very powerful and was only in saloon not cabins! 5. Deck hatches leaked. Rushed tech hand over I will avoid Croatia in future as they want to charge you for everything. You can still find isolated bays to anchor in but try and get anywhere near a place of interest then it’s €100 to just anchor.

In the picture, the boat looks really super good. But in reality, it really is an old boat. On board, all kinds of dings are visibly repaired. Which really gives you the feeling "I'm getting on an old boat". While that is not the feeling you get when you read information about the boat and look at the pictures. Sailing technically the boat sails okay. Sailing high to wind is better over one side than the other, leeches of the sails are outdated but the sails themselves look good. Main sheet is not free without friction. Operating engine handle requires precision and sometimes two hands to operate.

An excellent mini vacation! The Base Team in Lefkada is very profrssional, any minute available! Neat yacht, nice people in the special environment! Our very special thanks to the Base manager Olga Kouimountzi!

Booking and trip preparation through Tubber was good. Ship was very well equipped, but due to the many equipment (or outdated battery pack) frequent running of the generator was necessary. Lumbar fitting boom was not in order, but otherwise not bothered. Main engine very powerful. Sails a bit outdated, but fine for touring. Service and help from rental company was top!

Absolutely satisfied. Excellent charter company. New boat, excellent equipment, highly professional staff. I am sure if Greece again I will contact them. Thank you!

Good sailboat with well equipped galley (plates, pans, pots, ...). Brand new sails. Everything fine except the anchorwinch that failed. Used correctly but there was discussion. The landlord accused us of overloading the anchor winch. In our opinion this was not the case. 1 x anchored on sand no stress at all on the chain and on retrieval the anchor motor gave up. If the anchor winch is renewed it is a fine boat.

Boat met expectations. Pillows of the berths were new, however, very hard. Fans in the cabins would be very nice. Unfortunately the jib tore on the 2nd day, due to a sharp protrusion from the deck light. This should be fixed, in my opinion to prevent this again in the future. Replacement of the jib was fortunately done quickly, so we had no delay of the vacation. Attachment points of the dinghy need repair and rope. Otherwise a fine boat, for the age of the boat.

What a fantastic holiday. Neva looked after us brilliantly. She was very easy to sail. Yes she’s a bit old. Her electrics aren’t great. But value for money Neva was perfect.

Excellent boat, service, charter company and country infrastructure. I hadn’t noticed that the Genoa was self-tacking which was a disappointment to my very keen crew but the stern lines were a bit frayed at this point in the season but this was good for my keen crew who happily learnt to whip the ends. Our itinerary was as follows It took until 19.30 for checkin to be completed so stayed in Šibenik the first night. Opat Cove - it’s in the national park and your mooring and park fee gets rollled into your dinner bill so work is out really well. There was a storm and so we stayed an extra day and had to endure the amazing food once more. Electricity. No water. No showers but you can use the toilets. Piskera Marina - a bit more corporate but very helpful with the reverse parking. Zut - lovely place. Picked up a buoy of the Festa restaurant. Again food was good but they rather bumped us into going for the most expensive thing. We should have been stronger. Murter- bigger town, busy marina but a good stopping off point for the next day’s sail to Šibenik. Two really good days sail. Close hauled and reaching. It would be really good to be able to pay for 1 hour of tuition on using the bow thrusters. Managed in the end but would have liked to have had a little instruction. Also out navigation system thought we were in Venezuela but was using the brilliant navionics anyway.

Pleasant landlord. Friendly in dealing with clear explanations (experienced differently in Croatia), careful check-in. Boat well cared for and maintained, no defects. Highly recommended!

Nice spacious ship with enough facilities to go "off-grid" for extended periods of time. The music system is not bluetooth prepared, which is unfortunate. The ship has space and comfortable beds. The fourth cabin is very suitable for young children, for adults it is cramped. After seven years of charter, you can clearly see signs of use on the ship, on the interior and hull. However, this does not interfere with the sailing pleasure.

Fine ship: new, seas of space below deck and on deck. Good mainsail, jib is self-tacking which makes it less easy to set. Extra cushions for on deck would have been welcome. Preveza is a nice town but requires extra time due to low frequency of bridge opening at Lefkas (2pm, 5pm, 7pm). Wal organization friendly but somewhat inexperienced : no good boat manual, no area information.

Lovely week, nice flotilla group. Guidance was good (Sacha) and especially focused on independence when mooring in the evening, which sometimes caused some hassle in the beginning especially when mooring (anchoring and 2 floating lines on rocks/trees), but because of that we learned a lot. We mainly anchored in several bays with all 8 boats in a row. More fun than in a harbor and therefore opportunity to swim by the boat in the evening and morning in beautiful clear blue water. Boat met very well, good and detailed explanation from owner on Saturday afternoon, unfortunately we had some problems with remote control anchor winch (wire loose). But overall nice boat, nice group and a very nice week. Nice bays and islands, lots of meals with the whole group. Very pleasant group. Sailed from Athens to Epidaurus-Poros-Idhra-Aegina-Salamis and finally arrived back in Athens on Friday. Extensive Inspection boat on Friday afternoon, incl divers. Left the boat Saturday morning after a great experience.

We were able to test this yacht as ourselves for two weeks with our family. Fine yacht and the people at the base are exceptionally friendly. With 12-14 knots of wind the boat quickly runs about 6.6 knots, which is fine for this size. We had a lot of wind for two weeks, so we only used 40 liters of diesel to charge the batteries.

Well maintained boat, all necessary amenities were provided. Check-in and check-out went smoothly.

Tubber is top notch. Well organized, good communication. We will come back to this organization. Boat was fine, local charter very satisfied with it. Had a problem for a moment. Direct help and aftercare. Can feel free to go.

Lovely week on the water. Enjoyed sailing. Bryan and Carly are nice people who know what they are doing, they are happy to help and are knowledgeable about sailing and the area. The flotilla was quite large, 11 ships in total. During the day and in port you don't notice the size, but if you wanted to have dinner with the group one time you did. That was a little more difficult. For the kids on the last day held "Olympic" games, very fun. Flotilla is highly recommended. Unfortunately less experience with the rental company in Croatia, Asta Yachting Charter Sukošan. We have sailed in Croatia before, and this was the first time that the standard cushions that are supposed to be in the cockpit on the wooden floor were not there. We could rent other cushions from Asta for € 5 per week. This because the standard cushion got lost? A very bad story and unnecessary money-grubbing. Also the Dinghy was leaking, and you could not attach the pedals to the dinghy. Reported this also to Asta and expressed our displeasure. Next time I do not want to rent from Asta again. The yacht itself was otherwise fine, and the above does not apply to Tubber's organization.

Great area to sail, super nice flotilla and ditto flotilla leadership. Boat was just disappointing. Poorly maintained, many (minor) defects.

Very nice boat with lots of space for crew and accessories. Everything tip top in order and very well cleaned. The small remarks we had were immediately taken seriously and solved. Even ideas for improving the boat were asked for.

Fine boat. A bit of an unwieldy happy camper on the water. In terms of sails and sailing characteristics a bit dull.

Excellent vacation had, chartered via Tubber from Four Seasons Yachting, very friendly and helpful technicians, boats PICKLY put in order, no nonsense briefing beforehand, extensive questioning afterwards so that they could technically fix any faults before next rental. Flotation guide was çà vas but I would have liked more tourist info on destinations. We had some great sailing days with the icing on the cake being a storm night, FL had anchored us in a bay on the slate side of the island making it a great experience instead of stress. We are looking forward to our seventh Tubber time in the Med, Tubber time for us is the plural of me-time....but superlative.

Kwa comfort this boat was fine. Sailing technically much less. The luff of the mainsail was not tight enough, either the sail was mismeasured, or as lent out. Mainsail had no room left at the top of the mast, and sail was still not tight. Then downrigger wasn't usable either, the boom was so against the bimini so you didn't have any trim options here either. And then a self-tacking jib, you like it, or you hate it.

Very nice vacation we had. Our boat was a little less though. Especially compared to all the other boats and besides that we were on the boat together with the companions. Would have liked to have had the choice of a more modern/comfortable boat.
