Elan 38

Bateau pas tout neuf, mais encore en bonne condition.
Check in un peu rapidement menés à mon goût. En pleine saison les collaborateurs de la base on beaucoup à faire. certes, mais après vérification, il manquait un peu de vaisselle...
Le bassin entre Vodice et les Kornati offre plein de possibilités de mouillages. Attention les bouées sont payantes, mouiller à l'ancre juste à coté est par contre gratuit, sauf dans les Kornati qui demandent une taxe de séjour qui avoisine les 100 euros... Mais l'environnement est vraiment exceptionnel
A part une journée orageuse, la météo était fidèle à sa réputation : grand soleil et des vents thermiques réguliers.
Bref une magnifique semaine, et l'envie d'y retourner pour voguer vers les nombreuse iles et mouillages à découvrir

Great to have two heads for two couples.... a bit long in the tooth as a boat but good value nonetheless. Great for an affordable outing for two couples.

This a 30years old boat. Heavy 9,53 ton and suffuciently long 11,56m. Wonderful inside because of an old time wooden handcraft work everywhere. Pretty long genoa making troubles for the beginners, but after a while you will get use to it in every turnover. Old lady has in papers maximum 6kts speed...but it goes even 9,7kts when lays aside in stron wind. Waves bigger then boat itself are not scary, bacause lady Zaglav realy sails. In every Marina they welcome you, beacuse you sail on history of sailing. Ther si no plotter in the cockpit, just a little one in saloon. There is no information about the wind speed, but you will understand somehow it blows the right way all the time. In time of need Zaglav has a pretty strong motor 38PS, quiet reliable. Anchoring is a challenge, it must be done by hand. We sailed 420 nm in 12 days and this was an leaving exame for all the future skippers. Enjoy sometime. (...but may be because of all this, this boat is very popular and usually booked since april till november). Ther si no heating inside, but the main cabin is nicely wooden too, so it goeas. When it is raing, it is reaing down the mast into the boat, so if you put a canister, you will get 10litres of drinking water overnight as a plus. This was my lifetime experience and it ensures me, that boats doesn´t neccessary look like an plastic kitchen inside. This is a hart boat. Enjoy.

The boat was perfect for the company we traveled with (4 friends in there twenties). Boat was a bit old but we knew this when booked, everything was functioning as it should. boat was well maintained for its age and offered more space then expected. It sails very well. 7 persons on the boat may be a bit much as we wouldnt count every bed ranked as a 2 persons bed as actually a 2 pax bed. Previous harbour where the boat was based was a lot more fun (vodice) Betina is not a lot to do/see. Facilities at the harbour are fine though.
