Enjoy one day sail or a full week experience with professional skipper

ABOUT S/Y “Marinas“

“Marinas” is solid and spacious Bavaria 46 Cruiser built in 2008. She has 4 cabins and 2 heads but will only be able to offer 3 double bed cabins where up to 6 guests can be comfortably accommodated. Forth, bunk bed cabin, is used by skipper. Please note that Marinas can only be chartered with skipper included but thanks to that it can also be chartered for a short stay like a day or even half a day cruise.
In winter 2020/21 Marinas was under a major refit. New fridges were installed, solar panels added, new main sail, bedclothes, kitchen equipment, dingy, outboard, lots of equipment was refurbished. Considering her age and years spent in charter she now looks much better than most of her colleagues of the same age but her experience and miles left behind are, normally, visible. What you can expect is a cozy, comfortable and very safe middle age lady with well-maintained interior and fully equipped for extended cruising.
Please note that Marinas does not have permanent berth in Split. Almost all of our turn-around days are carried out in marina ZENTA in Split but the exact boarding location will be confirmed week before the charter.
Check in – 9 AM
Check out – 6 PM

It is good to have the plan and learn about the area before your arrival, it is always good to ask us for recommendations and suggestions, however do have in mind that the final decision of the route will be on the skipper, after checking the weather forecast on the day of your arrival. Luka will suggest the safest and the most comfortable route, planning few days ahead. The best time to agree on all the route details is upon your arrival onboard. If you want to do activities outside of the boat, do let us know ahead of your arrival as restaurants, various tours, berth in port, vine tasting tours etc. they all need to be reserved in advance. Your stay can be active, can be passive, maybe you are gourmand and would like to try the best Croatian food and vine, or you are looking for simple local “konoba”.
