Sailing upp the river from Salvador to Cacoeira is quit Challenging. And witout a centerboard wich is lifted up almost impossible.. Jagerens draft with centerboard up is about 1m 10 cm.. The fishing boat are still running witout a engine and they are quit friendly.. A verry fully marked with verry low prices of fruit and vegetable is in the end of the river..
