## General

Black Swan is a 49-metre custom motor [yacht](/what-is-a-yacht/), built in Croatia in 2018 by Odisej Ltd and comprehensively refitted in 2024. The refit renewed her interior spaces, entertainment systems, and technical equipment throughout. Registered under the Croatian flag, she is classified as a mini-cruiser and operates as a small passenger vessel under Croatian maritime regulations, a classification that permits her to carry more than twelve guests on private charters. Her hull is steel with an aluminium superstructure, a combination that provides structural rigidity while keeping topside weight low. Twin 500 hp engines give a cruising speed of around 10 knots and a maximum of 12 knots. Both at-anchor and underway stabilisers are fitted. The operator is Odisej Ltd, the same Croatian yard responsible for her construction.

## Accommodation & Crew

Black Swan accommodates up to 20 guests across 10 en-suite cabins. The layout comprises three master suites, each positioned on a separate deck, five VIP staterooms, and two further cabins configurable as either doubles or twins, offering flexibility for mixed or multi-generational groups. A multipurpose room on the lower deck can serve as a single [cabin](/what-is-a-cabin/), a children's playroom, a media lounge, or an office, depending on the requirements of the charter party. All ten guest cabins have private bathroom facilities.

The main deck saloon and dining area connect directly to the aft deck, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. The interior also features a library nook, a cigar and whiskey corner, an upright piano, and a dedicated indoor cinema on the lower deck. On deck, the flybridge carries a Jacuzzi and sun loungers. A gym with exercise equipment, a Finnish sauna, and a massage room with an adjoining bathroom are available for guest use. Water toys, a bathing platform, teak decking, air conditioning, WiFi, a watermaker, an ice maker, and a generator complete the onboard inventory.

## Location

Black Swan is based at ACI Marina Split on the central Dalmatian coast of Croatia. Split is a well-established departure point for the Adriatic, giving direct access to the islands of Hvar, Brač, Šolta, and Vis to the south and west, the Kornati archipelago to the north, and the historic walled city of Dubrovnik further south along the coast. The island of Korčula and the Pelješac peninsula are also within comfortable range. Northern and central Adriatic itineraries are available as alternatives to the classic Split-to-Dubrovnik route. Croatia's Adriatic coastline combines sheltered anchorages, historic towns, clear water, and a well-developed marina network, making it one of the most practical large-group cruising destinations in the Mediterranean. Charter rates are from {price_from}, plus [APA](/advanced-provisioning-allowance-apa/) and local tax, shown in full.

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.

Does Black Swan come with a crew, or is it bareboat?

The operator lists Black Swan as available with crew, though we have not independently confirmed the exact arrangement for this specific yacht. Get in touch and we will check the crew and skipper details with the operator before you book.

What experience or licence do we need to charter Black Swan?

That depends on the exact crew arrangement, which we have not confirmed for this specific yacht yet. Tell us your experience level when you enquire and we will check with the operator what, if anything, is required.

What's included in the charter price?

The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.

How does the security deposit work?

The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.

Is the yacht insured?

Yes: every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.

What documents do I need to bring?

You'll need your passport and proof of payment. We will confirm the exact crew arrangement and any licence requirements with the operator ahead of your charter.

What payment methods are accepted?

Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.

What's included, and do we need a skipper?

The operator lists this yacht as crewed, though we have not independently confirmed the exact crew and licence details for this specific hull. Get in touch and we will verify exactly what is included, and whether any sailing experience is needed, with the operator before you book.

Can we sail to a neighbouring country during the charter?

Sometimes, with the operator's written consent and the right paperwork. Common cross-borders: Croatia → Montenegro, Greece → Turkey, BVI → USVI. Most operators charge a one-off cruising-permit fee (typically €100–€300) and need 4–8 weeks' notice. Tell us at quote time and we'll arrange it: spontaneous border-crossing during the trip usually isn't allowed.

Do I need travel insurance on top of the charter insurance?

Yes. The yacht is insured by the operator for damage and third-party liability, but that doesn't cover you. Charter cancellation insurance (typically 4–5% of the charter fee) covers you if you have to cancel last-minute; standard travel insurance covers medical, flight, and personal-effects loss. We can recommend a UK broker that bundles both.

What happens if there's bad weather on the day?

For day-to-day weather you'll plan the week to avoid the worst: the Adriatic and Aegean have very predictable wind patterns. If a serious storm makes the start-day handover impossible, the operator delays check-in until conditions improve and refunds any lost days. The yacht itself is insured against weather damage, so you're not exposed.

Can I hold this yacht while I decide?

Yes: an option holds the yacht in your name for typically 48–72 hours at no cost. Useful if you're waiting on the rest of the crew to confirm, comparing it against another yacht, or sorting flights. Ask us when you enquire and we'll arrange the option with the operator.
