Dear sailing friends and not, I have been sailing in these seas for many years and every time I am always excited to return, we will go to visit the most beautiful and characteristic Kornati islands where pristine nature still reigns, 140 limestone islets that look like pieces of the moon floating in the cobalt sea. We could have dinner at the fishermen's house in a characteristic environment and sleep in magnificent bays surrounded by nature There is no better than diving into the water as soon as you wake up and having an aperitif while admiring the sunset.
Boarding and disembarkation will take place near Zadar exactly in Sukosan We will go to visit: Pasman, Ugljan, Zut, Piskera, Talascica Park and of course the Kornati islands.
Check out the crew!

Marco's experience in carrying the boat and paying attention to the weather conditions is undeniable, he knows how to be pleasant and in most cases he joined the jovial moments of the crew. I do not find it correct that for overnight accommodation he gave me as options sharing the cabin in a bunk or sleeping in a dinette while he occupied a cabin.
I would have liked to know more about the route traveled and there was no communication on the extent of the expenses incurred including the division of galley expenses in particular that of restaurants.
Attentive to safety and leaves autonomy in the organization of daily activities on the boat; available for dialogue and company in dinners and aperitifs. Unfortunately, there is a lack of clarity in the description of the movements, and the communication of important aspects on the additional costs and the method of payment of the same (double costs compared to estimate and only in cash). Poor maintenance of the boat and tender. Very sorry for the hasty check out. The landscapes seen are spectacular, but we suggest increasing the only 24 hours spent on the Kornati islands in at least a couple of days.
The day before departure Marco warned us with a message that, for urgent reasons, he could not have been our skipper but would have left us in good hands, those of Alice, 34 years old.
Having overcome our silly prejudices, she was never happier chosen: despite her young age Alice, thanks to her many experiences around the world, proved to be capable, serious, generous, empathetic, ready to lead us with enthusiasm to discover islands, bays, beautiful bays.
Having also dealt with four teen-agers she managed to be authoritative without being authoritarian, involving them in the various maneuvers but also supporting their playful desires, always keeping SAFETY in the foreground.
Result: a wonderful holiday for everyone and everyone, with a close-knit group and indelible memories.
Thanks ALICE!
N.B. Only negative note: being us three males all above the cm. 180, the bow cabin that had been assigned to us was definitely too small.
Amazing holiday! Although it was our first time on a sailboat (two families of friends with 4 teenage boys) we were able to immediately get into the mood of the holiday.
Marco contributed to the excellent success of this experience. He is a prepared, kind, very helpful and nice Captain. He taught us and told us many things without ever being intrusive. And he made us have a great time!
We sailed both sailing and motoring, saw very suggestive places, swam in beautiful waters, played, ate (and drank!) and admired the breathtaking starry ... All this allowed us to live an exciting experience without ever getting bored.
:)
Highly recommended!
Marco is a skipper passionate about the sea and people. On tiptoe he approached our group and was perfectly integrated.
We sailed, ate, drank, fished and visited beautiful places.
Thanks Mark!
Marco had an unexpected our week and left us in the hands of the fantastic Alice! It was a super week, with a skipper very prepared and very available to satisfy all our requests! Perfect company .... for a week of relaxation! Experience definitely to be repeated!!!
Marco represents the true essence of the captain!!
Fun, inclusive, very prepared and super helpful!
It was a fantastic week and full of beautiful places, company and emotions.
Highly recommended!!
Marco is a fantastic captain and skipper very experienced. He made us spend an unforgettable week, helping to create a wonderful boat company. Very willing to sail, if the wind allows it, and to teach the essential maneuvers for navigation. I highly recommend the experience with Marco and hope to relive it in the future.
???? A Captain, there is only one Captain!!????
Marco is a wonderful person, a very prepared skipper and a fun travel companion.
With him we felt at home and above all in safe hands; helped to create a beautiful group and a wonderful harmony.
We advise you to live the experience and to rely blindly on him, he will guide you on every occasion!
Marco is a wonderfull skipper. Very expérienced and very Nice . I fully enjoyed my sailîng week on his boat in Croatia.
Thank you so much Marco and see you next year on your boat for sure !
Marco is experienced and professional captain. His boat was perfect and managed with experience. I already have sailing experiences, also positive, but this one was super positive. We can surely say that the feeling was “to be at home on the sea”. Thank you Marco, and we surely see you again everywhere you decide to sail!
Marco is a fantastic skipper who makes you feel at home!
It was a unique experience from all points of view: although the Barcolana52 was canceled, the taste of sailing life will remain imprinted! Thanks for everything
Marco is a great skipper and a good sailor with a lot of experience. You can learn so much from him. Very hospitable, he does everything to make a comfortable stay for his crew.
Very nice experience, for me it was the first Barcolana, beyond the purely sailing aspect that unfortunately saw the complete absence of eolo, I was very satisfied with the holiday. Marco (and his partner) are really welcoming, nice people who immediately put you at ease. Marco is a very professional and experienced skipper, the boat is in excellent condition and very clean. I also found myself very well with the rest of the crew with whom we spent moments of great conviviality and fun. If Marco and his boat are there, I will certainly participate in the next edition of the Barcolana,
It was an unforgettable holiday for the great harmony of the crew, the bays and landings in beautiful places made our week really special.
Michele, our skipper, who arrived to replace Marco, guided us with great experience,
The only negative note concerns the boat for the lack of maintenance to the energy part.
The navigation was conducted by another skipper, Michele, very competent and helpful, intervened on several occasions to solve the inconveniences of the boat (mainly of an electric nature) and organized a very nice route that allowed us to see unforgettable places.
Excellent harmony achieved by the crew, with a boat in better condition would have been really the best!
