Description of Dodo's sailboat
HEY! OUR SECONDARY BASE IS THE ISLAND VIS & Yacht haven - Marina Milna, Island of Brac is our main haven! On request, we can also pick you up or drop off in Split haven or even the Split Airport or Hvar (Starigrad harbour on Hvar). This means = we are right on the spot, close and in between FAMOUS islands of Croatia, costal cities, bays and beaches around Vis, Blue Cave, Green Cave, Stiniva canyon bay, city & Island of Hvar, Palmizana beach bay, Starigrad of Hvar island, Milna of island Brac, island Solta, all around at the close reach of 1-3 hours relaxed sailing from each other. This match of our locations and flexibility allows us to provide 100% efficiency of your time spent on our yacht instead losing hours and days on traveling to it from costal busy harbours in the heath of the summer season. On request, we can also provide the One-Way charters. You can easily reach our base by Jadrolinija catamaran line or ferry line from Split in less or not much more then 2 hours and be right in the center of the most wanted sea-world hot spot of Adriatic Sea, as the starting point of your journey, right there. Seeing these islands from the seaside while sailing is the best way. To complete this route as a whole, we advise 1 week charter at least, but if this not always possible for you, our experienced and professional skipper can look to make the route adjustable and so best to fit your time available within the weather conditions. Our secondary base - The famous Croatian island Vis, is also known as the recent filming site of Hollywood "Mama Mia 2" movie (Merril Streep, Pierce Brosnan), the popular pearl of Adriatic Sea. The combination of our choice of the best starting location, flexibility and the boat quality, its type, classy, robust image and craftmanschaft is the reason why our guests are coming back. These are the few reasons why we and the most of our guests like spending time at the sea on our French sailing beauty made by JEANNEAU, the famous quality sailingboat brand. ABOUT THE SKIPPER & FOOD/DRINKS on BOARD: Our skipper is friendly, well seasoned, high skilled, experienced professional, takes no risk. The safety and comfort of the crew and property is our priority. He knows where to go and when and all the best spots on our routes according to your time and weather conditions. Beside the sailing, sunning on the deck, swimming and diving, you can chill out on 2 of our cool floaties, in the dinghy byboat or in some bay and, on request, enjoy our home grown winery, local bio/eco slow procedure see & other food. Ask for more details on food & drinks on board options.

We booked the boat with Dodo in Croatia to sail around the Islands Vis, Hvar, Brac and Solta. All in all we had a wonderful trip. The communication with Dodo went excellent, he is a very helpful Person and tried to assist us whenever possible. There were some things to be fixed at the boat: Bimini, reef rope, toilet, Anemometer, log. Additionally it would be helpful to create an Option (like PayPal, blocking on credit card or whatever) to pay the deposit not in local currency. The simple reason is that whenever payable in cash only while living in a EUR Country we'd have to convert back which cost a lot of fees. All in all we knew the boat is a bit older and we tried to pay less then the market average. Beside this we had a great Skipper who showed us the best places and hidden Restaurants which was very awesome. All in all we had a perfect trip and would like to be back to Croatia very soon! All the best from Germany.
Great guests, Max has fine experience and knowledge what is good for crew, the boat and the trip.
Excellent location, affordable price and a great skipper. Thank you!
Very nice guests
Good boat and good guys ;)!
Very nice guests.
Thx for a real nice Trip.
Great experience.
Solid boat that would benefit from better maintainance and updates. Rental price reflects this to some extent. Others should be aware that there are no fans onboard, speedometer does not work, deck fittings loose in some places, no inverter, front cabin head door and front cabin door are broken (do not close correctly so bang around), pilot book onboard has minimal substance, autopilot does not work and the gear level drops back from vibrations over time. The boat was also missing parachute flares and has no liferaft (although this may be common in croatia). VHF radio wires are fraying and we could not get any radio check to respond to test fully. Handover was a bit frustrating as we were told cash deposit was needed the day before, they cannot hold anything on card. Round trip this costed as an extra EUR 100 to get out last minute and convert. No detailed advice on areas was provided on the area until a few days into the trip. We were orignally advised we could turn up early to get space but several of the ACI marinas are now booked well in advance so we had to anchor / find bouys for the first few nights.
Best guys.
Nice 2 families of 8 persons, with not much experience so we gave them our skipper and made a nice trip with swimming pause at islands around Hvar.
