SailChecker note

19 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Solid midsize cruiser The Azimut 43 Fly is a well-equipped motor yacht that suits couples or small families wanting comfort without the complexity of sailing, perfect if you want to relax, explore at your own pace, and enjoy reliable cruising. At 12.9 metres with a flybridge design, you get excellent sightlines and outdoor living space.

Standout creature comforts Air conditioning, heating, generator, and a hydraulic gangway are real quality-of-life features on a boat this size. The bow thruster makes single-handed maneuvering easy, and you've got genuine galley amenities plus a dinghy for exploring anchorages, no compromises on the essentials.

Fair value proposition A 2007 Azimut at this length with 2 cabins (sleeping 5) and a comprehensive equipment list represents honest mid-range value; you're paying for proven build quality and a tested layout rather than cutting-edge design. The €4,000 deposit is reasonable for this vessel class.

One honest note The boat's age means you'll want to verify recent engine and systems servicing before committing, ask MY SeaTime directly about the last major survey and when key components were last overhauled. As an international arrival, confirm whether the operator offers airport pickup or can recommend reliable transfers from the nearest major airport.

A starting point, not a script: pick one as a template and we'll tailor the dates, stops, and pace to your crew.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop7 days · ~110 nm · 5 stops

Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.

1Sukošan / Zadar
Charter base. Stock up on provisions before you leave, the islands are sparse on supermarkets.
2Žut
Sheltered bay with one restaurant pier. Easy first-night anchorage; bring cash for the moorings.
3Telašćica
Long fjord-like bay inside the national park. Swim to the cliff-top salt lake at sunset.
4Sali (Dugi Otok)
Sleepy fishing village with a working harbour. Konoba Roko for lamb peka, order ahead.
5Sukošan return
Half-day sail back; the wind usually fills from NW by lunchtime.
Central Dalmatia · the Hvar Circuit7 days · ~140 nm · 5 stops

Mixes the lively (Hvar town, Bol beach) with the still untouched (Vis, away from the cruise routes).

1Split
Charter base. Diocletian's Palace is worth a half-day before you leave.
2Brač
Bol's Golden Horn beach is the classic stop. Anchor in Lučice for quiet.
3Hvar
Hvar town is the party. Stari Grad on the north coast is the antidote.
4Vis
The far island, fewer charter boats, blue cave excursions, the freshest seafood on the route.
5Šolta
Quiet, close to Split. Maslinica is the prettiest anchorage on the island.
Istria & Kvarner7 days · ~120 nm · 4 stops

Italian-influenced architecture, the warmest water in Croatia by mid-July, fewer charter boats than further south.

1Pula
Roman amphitheatre at the harbour entrance. Charter base.
2Rovinj
Picture-perfect Venetian old town on a peninsula. Marina is small, book.
3Cres
Sparsely populated; griffon vultures overhead. Anchor in Lubenice cove for the cliff views.
4Krk
The largest Adriatic island. Punat marina is full-service if you need provisions or laundry.
