点评:Went to the office in Lakka, Paxos, to discuss boat hire. The lady there informed me the cost for boat hire would be €80 for the day plus fuel costs.
Included in the price was all equipment required including a satellite navigation system.
The following day I met an employee of the firm who showed me the boat, explained the controls and how to rope off bhoys, and lay down the anchor. It was adequate and enough to get going for the day.
The satellite navigation system was simply a laminated A4 printout of a map of Paxos and Antipaxos! I used an app on my phone to navigate which was great.
The boat came with Mercury main engine, along with a back-up engine, all ropes, anchor, sun cover, Bluetooth speakers and a full tank of fuel ( 40/50l). The boat itself was in good order, clean and worked well throughout the day. Top speed was around 15knots, however I just kept the revs to 500ron.
Upon return I was guided into a space and then the fuel level was checked by eye. The employee claimed I'd used a certain amount of fuel and charged me an additional €40, which I felt was excessive. I was sceptical of the assessment of remaining fuel as there seemed to be plenty left in the tank. I was relying on the accuracy of the owner's eye rather than a calibrated gauge.
The overall experience was good, I explored the entire island including Antipaxos, discovering lovely beaches, coves and caves. I anchored off Vriki beach which was picturesque and ideal for snorkeling. The snorkeling at that location was superb, particularly at the cliff edges / cave.
翻译:前往Paxos Lakka的办公室讨论租船事宜。那里的那位女士告诉我一天的租船费用是 80 欧元加上燃油费。
价格包含所有所需设备,包括卫星导航系统。
第二天,我遇到了该公司的一名员工,他向我展示了这艘船,向我解释了控制装置以及如何用绳索系住船,并放下了锚。这已经足够了,足以开始这一天。
卫星导航系统只是 Paxos 和 Antipaxos 地图的层压 A4 打印输出!我使用手机上的应用程序进行导航,这非常棒。
该船配备了 Mercury 主发动机、备用发动机、所有绳索、锚、遮阳罩、蓝牙扬声器和一整箱燃油(40/50 升)。船本身状况良好,干净,全天运行良好。最高速度约为 15 节,但我只是将转速保持在 500 节。
返回后,我被引导到一个空间,然后用肉眼检查燃油油位。工作人员声称我用了一定量的燃油,并额外向我收取了 40 欧元,我觉得这太高了。我对剩余燃料的评估持怀疑态度,因为油箱里似乎还剩下很多。我依靠的是主人眼睛的准确性,而不是校准过的仪表。
总体体验很好,我探索了整个岛屿,包括 Antipaxos,发现了美丽的海滩、海湾和洞穴。我在 Vriki 海滩抛锚,那里风景如画,非常适合浮潜。那个位置的浮潜非常棒,特别是在悬崖边缘/洞穴。
