Hi Kristian,

I know little about Koper other than calling in there once when cruising but
I just want to say how satisfied I am keeping my yacht in Italy just across
the water in Aprilia Marittima where there is a marina of more than 2'000
boats ( http://www.netanday.it/aprilia/ ). Consequently, the support
infrastructure is excellent with many competent craftspeople, many of them
German who have relocated there. Perhaps you are only using Koper to launch,
fit out and move on, in which case you could still use the facilities in
Italy, which are infinitely better than either Slovenia or Croatia.

Let me know if you would like any further information.

Regards,

Brian.

Dear alt.sailing group:
I am about to purchase a Bavaria sailing yacht for med. sailing. I plan
to
get it transported to Koper in Slovenia for rigging. I need to fit some
electronics (Raymarine ST 6001 autopilot) and some other equipment. Do you
know any dealer of marine equipment in the area, preferably with E-mail
address?

Raymarine list NAUTIC SERVICE as dealer in this area, but unfortunatly
only
fax and telephone # is listed. Will try them later.

Is it generally a good idea to fit the youcht in Slovenia, or should I buy
the equipment at home (Norway) import the electronics and other equipment?
Another option is to buy the equipment in Germany or UK and import it to
Slovenia. What would you suggest?
