For one of the biggest festivals in Europe, you can't look past the world-famous electronic fiesta, Ultra Music Festival! The Ultra Music Festival Cruise includes all of the best parts of a traditional Navigator Cruise, and stays in Split for the first two day to take in the iconic Ultra Music Festival Cruise! For a taste of what to expect and the destinations you'll visit on this 7-day party cruise, check out our sample itinerary below: Day 1 Split: Check-in on the boat in Split harbour, Saturday from 10:30. We'll have lunch onboard and hear a welcome speech from our representative from 1pm. The boat will stay in Split for the first night, which gives you the opportunity to explore the city and take in the Ultra Music Festival which will be taking place in Split. Day 2 Split: The ship will depart from Split after breakfast and sail across to a nearby island for swimming and boat party! Lunch will be served onboard before we return to Split to allow you to take in the final night of the Ultra Music Festival Day 3 Makarska: Next stop is Makarska, a seaside town nestled under the highest seaside peak in the Mediterranean, Mt Jure. For nightlife options, there is the cocktail bar Marineta and for late night takers there is the infamous club "Deep" a natural cave next to the sea which rocks into the wee hours. Day 4 Stari Grad: We sail to the island of Hvar on Tuesday morning. Hvar is the longest island in the Adriatic. We will moor up in the port of Stari Grad. Situated on the northern side of the island, Stari Grad is the oldest town in Croatia and boasts an attractive network of old narrow streets and small squares around the harbour. Day 5 Vis: Vis is one of the most outer islands on the Dalmatian coast. Vis has been used over the centuries as a strategic military port and saw action through WWII against Italy and the Germans. It has only recently been open to commercial tourism and still retains a lot of its charm. Day 6 Hvar: From Vis, we head towards Hvar Town. Famous for its super-yachts and celebrity status. Climb the hill to explore the 16th-century fort ruins overlooking the harbour, before checking out the famous Hvar nightlife, with clubs such as Carpe Diem and Nautica Bar. Day 7 Split: From Hvar, we sail back to Split for the last night. Enjoy the view of the Split Riviera as we arrive into Split late afternoon. Split is a city under UNESCO protection that belongs not only to Croatians, but also to you, as it is a part of its World Heritage status. Day 8 Split: Early breakfast and time to say goodbye to the crew and all your new friends! Disembark from the boat at 9am. Don't miss out on the Ultra Music Festival Cruise in 2021! https://www.sail-croatia.com/specials/ultra-music-festival
☀️ At BoatTEST, we spend our time inspecting and reviewing boats, so a few years ago we decided to start a small boat club of our own—Sovereign Boat Fleet. We are in Tampa/St. Pete, Bradenton/Cortez, and Palm Beach with beautiful, premium 27’ to 31’ boats. They’re fully loaded with joystick controls for easy docking and proper onboard heads. We’re running a limited-time special: You just pay for the days you actually want to be out on the water. If you're interested, give us a ring to chat or comment "CLUB" below and we’ll send the website link directly to your DMs. 📥️ Visit SBF below: ⬇️ https://www.sovereignboatfleet.com/
New Leopard 50 Owner's Review now up at 'kats.co/50L'! Or head to our profile for the link. ▫️ Thanks to Sailing Dracarys for helping out. This is a good 'un with lots of useful insights on this boat or any cruising catamaran for that matter. ▫️ Here are some excerpts: ▫️ Kats: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and your boat, Dracarys? SD: Dracarys is my first sailboat, and to date, I’ve taken her 14,000nm, including multiple trips between the Gulf side of Florida and the Chesapeake Bay, Mexico, and the Exumas. I ordered her after gaining a grand total of about three weeks of sailing experience – one week of ASA classes and two charters in the BVI. The largest boat I’d owned previously was a 23-foot wakeboarding boat. ▫️ Kats:What’s she like in heavy weather / a blow / big seas? SD: The most severe weather I’ve experienced so far was a on a sail from Key West to Sarasota – about 30 hours. There was a small craft advisory issued; winds and waves were at about 50-60 degrees off the nose at around 30kts and nine feet, respectively. . To me, she felt like a bulldozer running through marshmallow fluff. I don’t have the experience to know if that’s normal, but I was very pleased! There was minimal creaking and banging. Overall, the boat gave me the impression that she didn’t even notice the conditions. ▫️ Kats: What type of anchor/weight/chain length did you go for? SD: I chose a Rocna 40kg (88lb) anchor – I think it’s the largest/heaviest anchor that fits without modifications to the anchor roller/mount area. For chain, I went with 240 feet of Maggi 10mm. Why a random number like 240 feet? Because that’s what was available. ▫️ Kats: How was the buying process with Leopard or their dealer? SD: The buying process was uncomplicated and, for the most part, smooth. There’s an options changes “lock out” date that wasn’t communicated to me up front, so that created a tiny amount of stress, but all ended well. No question that I’d buy again. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #multihulls #leopardcatamarans #sailing #catamarans #sailinglife #multihull #catamaran #sailinginstagram #multihullsailing #sailboat #katamarans #sailingcatamarans @leopardcatamarans #leopard50
