Cruising aboard Dana in Croatia
Dana is a 2022 Fountaine Pajot MY4.S with 2 x 250.0 HP engines and a beam of 5.1 m. Twin hulls and twin engines give a fast, level and economical ride, and keep her stable at anchor, so lunch stays on the table and nights are calm – perfect for the quiet coves and stone harbours of Dalmatia. Modern navigation, including an autopilot, makes her easy to handle. Mornings are made for swimming and paddleboarding in glassy water, afternoons for a fast, smooth run to the next island.
Skipper, Cook & Provisioning
Prefer to relax? A skipper (€270 per day + food) and a cook or hostess (€270 per day) are available on request. We can arrange provisioning with fresh Dalmatian produce before you arrive, so the fridge is full and you can sail straight away. The security deposit is €4,000.
