22 Our Ships 22 Our ships are classic motor cruisers of wood and steel construction. They each have their own individual features and charms. We allocate each ship into one of 4 main categories, which reflects certain attributes and the way we price our cruises. We offer our Navigator Cruises on our Standard, Ensuite, Premier and Premier Plus ships. Our Explorer Cruises use our Premier and Premier Plus ships, while our Elegance Cruises are offered exclusively on our designated Elegance Premier Plus ships. The ships are owned and operated by local Croatians and their families so you can trust you will receive an authentic experience onboard any of our vessels. All of our ships are designed for small ship cruising, to moor up in secluded bays for swimming and dock in small ports each evening. The ships are modelled on traditional Croatian gulet-style ships; each year they are refurbished and new ones enter our ever-growing fleet. The variability of the fleet allows you to choose the type best suited for your comfort and budget to sail the beautiful Adriatic. The ships all have large sun deck areas to enjoy the Adriatic sunshine, as well as space in the shade when you have had too much! The atmosphere on these ships is informal and relaxed. You will be well looked after by the Captain and crew who will take care of all the hard work. You can just lie back on deck and enjoy some enforced relaxation while sipping a chilled glass of wine or beer and basking in the warmth of the Croatian sun under the bluest of skies. On the majority of the ships, there are above deck cabins and lower deck cabins. Above deck cabins run across the main decks of the ships (and the top deck in some cases). Lower deck cabins are in the hull of the ship. Prices vary based on the ship types and positioning of the cabins.

We share our responsibility to protect Croatia s environment, customs and traditions with our guests and require that our travellers respect the Captain and have consideration for his boat, as it represents his family s livelihood. We celebrate the Croatian culture and deeply respect the country s history and recent hardships. Croatia has risen over the last 10 years to now be one of the most vibrant and exciting holiday destinations in Europe. There are not many places on the Mediterranean that can offer you an authentic experience whilst also being well organised and genuinely caring for its visitors. We believe Croatia, and her neighbours, provide all this and more. We look forward to helping you explore this beautiful corner of the world. Grant Seuren Grant Seuren Managing Director

A family-owned business, we recognise the importance of excellent working relationships with our local suppliers, many of whom we have worked with for several years and can consider our friends. This network gives us a distinct advantage in providing an authentic Croatian holiday experience.

We choose only to work with the ships and crews who we trust to meet our high levels of customer service. We believe strongly in supporting sustainable tourism by investing in small and locally-run businesses. As such, each of the ships we charter throughout a season is family-owned and operated. The ships employ local staff members, many from within their own family network and home communities along the coast. This is important to our business as it is a direct investment back into these communities and offers a more authentic and traditional experience to our customers. We are very proud that the majority of our customers have booked with us on the strength of recommendations from previous guests. This is something we do not take for granted and work hard to maintain this level of recommendation. Our promise to you is to offer a truly authentic and traditional experience whilst maintaining a high level of customer care. We look forward to showing you the best of the Adriatic.
