Dufour 390 GL with 3 Cabins - Sailing Yacht (2021) - Mercury

Poor Croatia is beautiful but pricey compared to Greece for example, only the harbor fee is regularly 100 euros per day or higher 39f. The group was very mixed but very nice and cozy. We took it for granted that flotilla would take care of everything, but unfortunately we missed it. From booking your own ports to anchoring in the bay, we were left to our own devices and from time to time there was a lack of clarity about the route. Furthermore, the leadership was not a connecting factor which was really a missed opportunity otherwise it would have been much more fun. For us, all in all, this would be a reason to go out with another organization.

Very Good We had a very nice week on the Mercury with Angelina tours as charter and the flotilla leadership through Tubber. The ship in itself was fine, sailed very pleasantly and nicely spacious and comfortable. The finish was a little less here and there, tables broke off which had already happened 5 times. Also, the boat was leaking in several places it appeared during a downpour! Front desk staff was not very friendly or helpful from Angelina tours. Technical staff on the other hand was adequate. We found it a disadvantage that the flotilla left from two different ports which are far apart and there was only the second evening when the whole group met. Leadership was super friendly and adequate. Still, we didn't feel very much like we were sailing in a flotilla. Much uncertainty about whether there would be places in the port which sometimes was not the case. The two main reasons for us to sail in a flotilla are the friendliness of a group and the certainty of a place, which is why I cannot give a maximum score. Again I want to emphasize that the leadership clearly made a lot of efforts to make this all run as smoothly as possible anyway and what I really appreciated also had a great sense of responsibility but these circumstances were also beyond their control, that is a piece of greater organization and logistics where improvement is possible. Croatia we certainly find a nice sailing destination, after seven years of lefkas and corfu it was certainly nice to see once, lots of nature, bays and islands, choice possibilities a bit bigger. Atmosphere of ports, friendliness and certainly the amount of mooring fees would probably bring us back to Greece next time.
