This is our third charter in Croatia, and it may have been our best. The nearly new Elba 45 was our best cat to date - really nicely designed, provisioned, and maintained. The sailhandling systems and deck layout for sailing and sunning fit our preferences perfectly. The Navigare personnel at the Dubrovnik base were friendly and professional. The briefing and debriefing went smoothly.
Arrival on saturday 17h: only 1 man for all checkins, we where ready at 20:30; boat is not clean (food rests on deck), floors dirty; we decide to leave on sunday -too late- at night we realize there are no pillows, no towels (need to check it too?). First anchorage: when leaving the anchor get stucked in the motor: reason: the chain locker is too small!. You need to people for getting it up. At the chekout, they confirmed it is a known issue: why did they not tell us?? In addition: there is no physical space for manouvering betwenn piers, confirmed by the crew on the harbour as well. Boots are in pretty bad shape. Boot has no water filling indication, no battery load status indication.
