   Panos,

I am not the owner, however they were with me at the Genova Show.  The owner will meet the boat again in the Med for a couple of weeks and then the crew, will sail the boat to the Canaries where the owners will join her for the ARC.

Has Nicole been re-launched.  How was the shipboard experience?

	Hi, MMBW Nicole is still on M/V Spuigracht, currently near Gibraltar expected to unload end of this week at Lavrion Greece. Then I will be able to post pictures from the interior.

	Hallo Panos I can not see if you have a bow prop (rejectable perhaps) I can not imagine you sail this kind off yachts short handed without one, or are you such a perfect sailer you can do without? I have a 370 and I dont have one but with a lot of side wind I somtimes realy mis it. greetings Marcel Edited by alettaenmarcel - 11 August 2008 at 09:52

	Hi, Here is a list of extras that we ordered : 2 electric secondary winches AEST 54 (instead of manual ones) carbon steering wheels retractable mooring winch 24V/1000w Maxpower VIP 150 Bow Thruster 24V electrical deck wash pump in anchor locker 3 Tecma electric toilets and holding tanks in guest cabins and owners cabin Air conditioning 230V , 38000 BTU Indel inox fridge in cockpit 3000w inverter sound insulated PANDA 10.2 KW generator Electric-hydraulic gangway retractable in transom DESSALATOR watermaker Duo (24V/230V) 60lt/hour SIMRAD electronic pack II (GB40 +autopilot+ VHF + Radar + instruments) AIS SIMRAD transponder class B Remote commander for SIMRAD combi-antenna (G3 phone+ VHF + TV + radio) flat screen TV LCD retractable in saloon and owners cabin dishwasher washing machine in hostess cabin CARBON MAST AND BOOM Inner forestay with tensioner Inox anchor chain instead of standard one outside lights package (underwater + deck floor + mast) GORI 3 blade prop (I have to check the dimensions) surround Fifi system by BOSE G3 - GSM antenna booster and INTERNET/mob. phone installation gas leak alarm/fire alarm/intruder alarm/remote controlled gas valve In a few weeks I will be able to comment about how good and helpful each selection was. During the delivery trip we had minor problems, most of them solved. For example the generator ,even though had been tested at Greifswald, wouldn't start and after a lot of trails Hanse sent a technician (within 12 hours of notice) and changed the leaky diesel filter. The boat is so complicated that if something doesn't work it is almost impossible to determine if you are doing something wrong or it really has a fault. One is for sure : The manual is not well written and doesn't help at all.

	Congratulations with your new delivery - very impressive sight. Living in Greece I can understand you will want to speed up the return of the yacht to the warmer Med waters however; sorry that you did not take up the opportunity to explore the fantastic Scandinavian waters a bit more while you were there - or was it that I would have liked to get a chance to see your yacht in person? Never mind, except for a few weeks, the Danish summer this year has not been that good - we have had a lot of wind though, and that is really what it is all about. The speed you report is impressive however to be expected. We sailed 17 days and were only overtaken by ONE boat this whole period and if it was not a Hanse it turned out to be a 10 feet longer X-yacht. Happy sailings in the Med!

	Hi Panos, congrets from my side - thats a really fine boat and I love the colour... I'm shure she will arrive greece in a proper way and you will have much fun on your boat in the med.

	Hi Ed, Thats a good video, but the 630 is a little bit great for the IJsselmeer or Zeeland. Hi Panos, Congratulations with your new yacht, looks fantastic. Best regards Rob
