What are the problems on this boat?

Altough this famous  boat is worth it , never forget that  nobody is perfect !

• using the engine going backwards can be really tricky on this boat. As we do not go very often  in marinas, this is no big deal. Just keep it in mind !
• Graine d'Etoile doesn't like sailing to close of the wind, especially with little wind... In that case, wait, change your destination, or use the engine !

 Today, we use no fridge on board. The compressor of the existing one is out of order. If you really wants one, you'll have to do something about it (buy a new compressor, reconnect it to the old fridge, add a battery)).

The deck paint is 5 years old and not in the same perfect condition as the hull paint. This will have to be done someday (in the next 5 years...), but keep in mind  it is only something cosmetic as aluminium doesn't rust.
