Beautiful places we have visited repeatedly over the years. Costs are somewhat high in marinas and restaurants, where euros are increasingly less accepted. The boat was registered in 2019 (Hanse 508) so in excellent condition, although at handover some stern davits were bent and therefore difficult to extend — evidently due to improper use by previous renters. The supermarket at Marina Kastela should be better stocked, and euros are not accepted here either. Customers are forced to leave the marina to get kuna, whereas there should be a currency exchange office on site. I would consider it appropriate to have check-in staff who can speak Italian, given the considerable number of Italians renting yachts; I also suggest that when the customer, at the time of taking charge of the boat, asks staff to verify the correct functioning of the gennaker (and weather conditions obviously permit), they should not be refused as in our case on the grounds that check-in had to be carried out for other boats. The customer who has also paid for this extra has the right, if they ask, to obtain prior verification that everything is in order and to be given all the time needed. Furthermore, the customer is asked to sign the check-in form but in some cases is forced to sign blind, as they are not in a position to verify that the item they have ticked off is actually free of defects. I am referring for example to the condition of the hull at handover, which obviously cannot be inspected and so one must rely on the honesty of the boat owner.

Wonderful places to see by sailboat

Good sailing on a comfortable boat, but the boat's overall condition was not very good. For example, the sunshade was not usable underway because it was so loose it hung over our heads. The dinghy outboard was no longer usable because the starter cable had broken. The fridge opened by itself on port tack (starboard tack). Otherwise everything was fine, but these details did bother us.

Marenauta was very professional and quick in their replies. Boat and charter were perfect and quick to resolve minor problems. A week of sailing in clean waters and beautiful places.

Wonderful catamaran vacation sailing around the Croatian islands; stunning places.

Basically everything OK; as always, very late check-in was possible! (The anchor windlass was broken and was only replaced after 3:00 p.m. - one always wonders why you are supposed to be in the marina at 6:00 p.m. on Friday so that such things can be repaired earlier!)
