Do you remember the first sailing trip you
took?
It was the most memorable holiday of my life. No, really! Those three
weeks around the Kornati archipelago got me hooked.
Why? What was so special?
I’ll never forget the moment when the skipper turned off the
engine and we heard nothing but the breeze and the creaking and straining
of ropes as the boat surged on. Even now, it gives me a thrill.
Weren’t you a bit young for three weeks
aboard a boat?
Never! There was always something exciting to do: learning to do knots
and pulling sheets and helping the skipper. And then of course we swam
and snorkeled and explored.
Which are your favourite bits of the coast?
I’m torn. I love to sail the 110 or so islands of the Kornati
archipelago but then I also like Vis.
Why?
The food is delicious and the atmosphere is really lively. Vis is full
of history too, and geographically it’s amazing: Komiza bay was actually
the crater of a volcano once.
Favourite dishes?
There’s something irresistible about Croatian kebabs. Black risotto’s
good too – especially the Rokis on Vis.
What do you offer that other sailing operations
don’t?
Our service: we can give you all the information you’ll need
down to restaurant phone numbers in advance, so you don’t waste time
on holiday. We own our boats, so they’re immaculate. And our friendly
crews – that’s really important.
Does everyone need to hire a crew?
Not if you can sail! It depends whether you want to head out into the
blue on your own, or just relax and sit back.
