Elan 210

Some pictures that can help you decide if Elan 210 is the the proper-sized sailing boat for your adventure. Be aware, that not all boats have the same internal configuration. This is Snoopy, which is located in Pješčana uvala, Pula, Croatia.

There is enough space for a family of four. If you are sailing as a couple, be prepared to be short-handed during some manoeuvres. 

Mind the location of the outboard engine. Getting out of the water is not an easy task, if you keep it in place. We have used the provided ladder and improvised with some rope to have it hanged between the ruder and motor. With motor running, you have to stand way back on the stern to keep the propeller properly submerged. If there would be two persons in the cockpit this probably would not be an issue. 

The size and good cooling of the refrigerator surprised me. The 48 Ah battery managed to keep drinks cool during the whole day. 

See the checklist, to make sure that you do not forget something important. There are some specifics for the small boats at the end of the list.
