SailChecker note

15 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.

Excellent capacity play This 42.5-metre motoryacht is built for groups and corporate charters, sleeping up to 28 guests across 20 cabins, ideal if you're organizing a family reunion or team retreat rather than an intimate getaway. The zero deposit requirement is genuinely helpful for larger bookings where upfront commitment can be substantial.

Well-equipped for cruising Autopilot, radar, and chart plotter mean the crew can handle longer passages confidently, while air conditioning throughout keeps everyone comfortable in warm climates. Bow thruster manoeuvrability is a real asset when docking a vessel this size in tighter Mediterranean or Caribbean anchorages.

Fair value for groups At 42.5 metres with 28 berths, the per-person daily cost works out genuinely competitive for large parties, you're sharing fixed running costs across many guests. The onboard snorkeling gear and dinghy add practical value without extra fees.

One realistic note A 2011 build means she's now over a decade old; while the kit list suggests decent maintenance, you'll want to verify her specific condition and recent refit history with Mala Luna before committing, especially for a high-guest-count charter where downtime affects many people.

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.
