We had an amazing experience on the sailboat! We stayed for 4 days and 3 nights, boarding at 9:00 AM on the first day and leaving the boat at 6:00 PM on the last day. Andrey, the owner and skipper, is a super friendly, helpful and welcoming person. He speaks Russian, a little Croatian and a little English, but communication was absolutely fine and we had no problems understanding each other. We helped him whenever we could, and he showed us everything and gave us clear instructions on what to do. It was a lot of fun to be part of the experience rather than just being passengers. The boat itself has an excellent price-performance ratio and is very well equipped. There was air conditioning in all cabins, and it worked extremely well — even with around 30°C outside, it was about 21°C inside, sometimes almost too cold! 😄 There were also two large refrigerator drawers and a freezer, as well as a microwave, coffee machine and toaster. Another great thing is that almost everything can be used while sailing because it runs on the batteries. The only exception is the air conditioning, which works with shore power when the boat is in the harbour. All in all, it was a fantastic experience and we had a really great time. We would definitely do it again and can highly recommend sailing with Andrey. Thank you for the wonderful few days! ⛵️🌊
Nothing short of sensational. Andrey was a true professional and we felt very welcomed. We all blended well and managed the sailing with relative ease
Sailing with Andrey on the beautiful Elina was nothing short of amazing. As this was a birthday surprise sail for my husband and our little boy’s first sailing experience, our expectations were high, to say the least. The communication leading up to the sail was smooth, professional, and reassuring, especially considering my concerns about the unstable weather predictions. Andrey is a highly experienced captain who handles his sailboat with confidence while generously providing plenty of opportunities for participation, tailored to each person’s level of experience. He was particularly wonderful with our son—inviting him to help, giving him meaningful tasks, and sharing his binoculars, which made our little boy feel important and excited, contributing significantly to his experience. While Andrey ensured we had plenty of privacy and there were long, beautiful moments when it felt almost like it was just the three of us sailing together, we also shared moments of deeply interesting conversation; the captain is a proud father and grandfather who has led a life rich in experience. In addition to the logistics exchanged in English before the sail, we conversed mostly in Croatian on board, so we experienced no communication challenges. We would and hope to sail again on Elina.
Very nice week end to rediscover sail. Interesting discovery of Croatia/islands.
Professional boat and captain, thank you for the great time!
