We go open ocean fishing on the Skeeter ZX22V. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/06/skeeter-zx22v-bay-boat-blitzkrieg-2/ For more boat videos, visit www.boats.com. Off to port Catalina Island was a mere smudge on the horizon, on our starboard side the California coast slid by in a blur, and dead ahead calico bass were waiting to be caught. They wouldn't have long to wait, because the Skeeter ZX22V being captained by Ben Florentino of Coastal Charters boasted 225 Yamaha horses on the transom, and was hauling its load of anxious anglers to the fishing grounds at over 30-mph. If you think that doesn't sound very fast for this rig, you're right—cruising speed is closer to 40-mph and top-end breaks 50. But remember, we were in the open Pacific. In fact, it's a testament to the way this boat is designed and built that we could even think about making our 12 mile run to Florentino's favorite kelp beds with just 22 feet of LOA. Blasting through widely-spaced three foot waves the Skeeter felt rock-solid, thanks to construction touches like a single-piece deck constructed of sandwiched layers of PVC cross-linked foam and fiberglass. Aircraft-grade aluminum ties the stringers and transom together, distributing stress throughout the structure. Hatches—many with full-length piano hinges—are injection-molded to maximize strength while minimizing weight. Aluminum backing plates are laminated into the deck where the console's attached. Build a boat with these techniques on a 20-degree deadrise hull, add in a pair of concave reverse chines, then give it strakes plus a transom set-back, and you get a boat that feels like granite underfoot yet has the grace of a gray-hounding wahoo. As we ate through the Pacific there were no rattles, vibrations, or slams to speak of. You can see what I mean in this video, which was all shot in the open ocean.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the luxury of discovering Croatia onboard a luxury small ship Elegance Cruise in 2021! Explore historic towns and villages and swim in secluded bays, watch golden sunsets with newfound friends whilst enjoying the breath-taking beauty of Croatia. For a taste of what to expect on the Elegance Split Return North route, view our sample itinerary below: Day 1 Split: Check-in is from 11.00am to 12.00pm. Day 1 Trogir: Enjoy a 3-course lunch onboard as we depart Split Harbour at 1pm and commence sailing towards to our first destination- the seaside town of Trogir. This tiny medieval town is packed with stunning architecture, impressive fortifications, and cosmopolitan restaurants. Trogir is the perfect place to soak up an authentic Croatian experience, so why not spend your afternoon strolling through the fascinating Old Town, swimming or relaxing in this beautiful area. Enjoy the evening experiencing a local restaurant or waterside cafe Day 2 Sibenik: This morning we’ll leave Trogir behind and sail toward the beautiful city of Sibenik, the oldest native Croatian city on the Adriatic. We will be stopping off at a secluded bay for a swim, where you’ll catch a glimpse of the beautiful island of Zlarin as we make our way to this evening’s destination. We’ll moor in the protected natural harbour of Sibenik, giving you every opportunity to discover the city at your leisure, indulge in coffee and cake on the waterfront Riva, or explore the abundance of medieval forts, cathedrals and churches located a stone’s throw away from the ship Day 3 Zadar: Enjoy breakfast looking out over the stunning Adriatic Sea as we cruise toward the fascinating city of Zadar; historically known as the center of Dalmatia. This notable town has stood the test of time and is filled with beautiful Roman architecture and medieval churches, yet blended with cosmopolitan cafes and quality waterfront restaurants. Spend the afternoon along the waterfront of Zadar, taking in the city’s two unique attractions – the sound-and-light spectacle of the Sea Organ and Sun Salutation, which need to be seen and heard to be believed! Sip on champagne as you marvel at Zadar’s most famous attraction; the stunning sunset out over the sea, before indulging in delicious local cuisine. Day 4 Vodice: Relax as we set sail and head toward the coastal town of Vodice and enjoy a 3-course lunch at your Captain’s favourite secluded bay along the way. Spend the afternoon swimming at one of the beautiful pebbled beaches, relaxing onboard, or take part in an optional trip to the Krka Waterfalls National Park, one of the most beautiful spots in all of Croatia. Day 5 Vis Early this morning and subject to weather conditions (which are normally excellent), we will make our way across to the island of Vis, one of the most outer-lying islands on the Dalmatian coast. Vis has been used over the centuries as a strategic military port and saw action by the Allied military through WWII against Italy and Germany. It has only recently opened to commercial tourism and the island still retains a lot of charm. Day 6 Hvar: Enjoy breakfast onboard overlooking the stunning Adriatic as we cruise towards Hvar island. Relax in the Croatian sunshine or take a dip in the refreshing Adriatic at our mid-morning swim stop before lunch is served onboard. After lunch, we continue on to Hvar, the ‘French Riviera’ of the Adriatic. Feel the part sipping champagne and docking alongside other super yachts in Hvar Town. Although renowned for it's celebrity spotting, Hvar still remains authentic to its roots, with its cobbled streets, historic architecture and 7th Century Fortress overlooking the town. Don’t miss out on the included Hvar Orientation Walk to see the Renaissance Cathedral with its original tower, as well as the oldest community theatre in Europe, which dates back to 1612. Day 7 Split: Enjoy your final swim stop in a secluded bay just outside of Split, before taking in this spectacular city as we cruise into Split harbour in the afternoon. The UNESCO World Heritage city of Split bases the city center in and around the stunning Diocletian's Palace, a Roman emperor's' retirement palace from 295-305 AD. This beautiful palace consists of 220 buildings within its boundaries, is home to 3,000 people and Split is now the second-largest city in Croatia. Stroll through the palace basement filled with market stalls and historical architecture or have a coffee on the waterfront Riva. Day 8 Split This morning it's time for an early onboard breakfast, before saying goodbye to the crew and all of your new friends.
