SailChecker note

22 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.

Perfect for groups Stella Maris is an excellent choice if you're gathering 8, 16 people for a shared gulet experience. The 44-metre size and eight cabins give everyone comfortable private space while maintaining that classic Turkish gulet charm and social atmosphere.

Strong practical setup You get the essentials covered: snorkeling gear, Wi-Fi for staying connected, and an outboard engine for flexibility. The zero deposit is a genuine bonus that makes booking simpler, especially for larger groups coordinating payment upfront.

Good value proposition For a 2004 gulet of this size through AC Yachts, the pricing sits in the fair-to-competitive band if you're splitting costs across multiple cabins. The per-person rate drops significantly with a full charter, making it genuinely economical for group holidays.

One thing to note The listing doesn't specify the exact base location or detailed onboard amenities, you'll want to confirm with AC Yachts whether this sails the Turkish Riviera, Greek islands, or elsewhere, as that affects your itinerary and international flight connections. It's worth a quick call to clarify cabin configurations and whether crew expertise matches your group's sailing ambitions.

Croatia · the Adriatic

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.
