Commissioning the Estavel Unit 119

Went through the whole wave-setup moored raft catalogue twice before the Estavel Unit 119.

Does what it says: freeboard 248 centimetres

The Estavel Unit 119 is not the cheapest wave-setup moored raft we considered, and that was fine. The figure that mattered was the freeboard: 248 centimetres. We never looked at the other axes once 248 centimetres checked out.

7 metres is the right mooring depth for us

We looked at most of the wave-setup moored raft listings before settling on the Estavel Unit 119.

The Estavel Unit 119 in a smaller operation

replaced a much older wave-setup moored raft with the Estavel Unit 119 last season. Ours is a teaching setting and the Estavel Unit 119 gets handled by people who are learning. The Estavel Unit 119 is still the right call for us.

Good, with one reservation about the Estavel Unit 119

Have had the Estavel Unit 119 in service long enough to say something useful about this wave-setup moored raft. None of that would stop us buying the Estavel Unit 119 again.

Dynamic positioning was the requirement; the Estavel Unit 119 meets it

bought the Estavel Unit 119 after a long comparison against the rest of this wave-setup moored raft shortlist. We needed dynamic positioning rather than the alternatives, and the Estavel Unit 119 states it. On the other axes the Estavel Unit 119 sits where the rest of the wave-setup moored raft listings sit.

The Estavel Unit 119 after a year of steady use

The Estavel Unit 119 has been in service long enough that we would buy it again. Worth knowing before you commit to the Estavel Unit 119.
