Field notes
The account traces the transaction from a 5 July 2023 agreement through a final invoice dated 27 May 2024. It says the first delivery leg from Bordeaux to Betina Marina was invoiced at €25,195.44, while solar panels, lithium batteries, and a 110V conversion were not fitted. The author says there was no handover protocol because the planned handover to the charter operator did not occur.
