- Heavily soiled GRP anti-slip decks are difficult to clean with a brush and cleaner; polishing only reaches the tips of the texture.
- A water-based, wax-free abrasive polish applied with a stiff brush attached to a cordless screwdriver is effective; it also cleans the recesses without producing a high gloss.
- Procedure: Rough clean, mask off the area, apply the polish and work it in (changing the direction of rotation), clean thoroughly, seal and check the result.

- Very lightweight inshore oilskins (jacket €299, trousers €259) with a thin 3-layer laminate for summer coastal waters, but lacking in quality.  
- The main drawback is the stiff, narrow shoulder straps with no stretch: too loose when standing, cutting into the shoulders when crouching – overall, a serious fit issue.  
- Despite sensible reinforcements, adjustable ankle cuffs and a well-designed hood, the loose, baggy fit failed to impress in testing.

Safety on board

- Up-to-date paper charts are required by law on pleasure craft flying the German flag; offences can be punished with fines.  
- Charts can be updated inexpensively by yourself using correction sets; takes about 1-3 hours, costs about 20-40 euros per chart set.  
- Manual updates promote knowledge of the area, but reach their limits in the event of fundamental changes; in this case, it is necessary to purchase new charts or chips.
