Sailing Croatia on Lagoon 42 Catamaran

[@georgegarnet3516]

Wow, I have no words, Igor... just speechless...

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks George!

[@VERTICALWisdom]

Great video.... Thank you for sharing your passion for Croatia.

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks!

[@Magaman88]

I really enjoyed this video. For the record I have managed to save up for my own catamaran and will be starting my training soon towards yachtmaster ocean. Thanks for all the videos, Igor. I prefer yours over many of the other well known ones as you tell it how it is.

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks Gus! Good luck with yachtmaster!

[@hoverwatch4131]

Great to see the sailing videos back again Igor. I’m trying to figure out how to sell everything I own to spend my time sailing!

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks! Like me trying to sail around the world. One day we both do it!

[@matthewkolb9950]

You've said before that Croatia is the best sailing in the world...I'm convinced! It so absolutely beautiful! They should make you an ambassador for travel. You really make me want to visit now! Love your videos bro!

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks Matthew!

[@johnsmircic6650]

WOW !! Just found your channel , just beautiful, my parents are from otok Pemuda. Last time I visited there was 1986. Miss it so much, fantastic video, thank you, your friend in Texas, John Smircic .

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks John!

[@ynech]

Liked the video. I love these places. It's very beautiful there.

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks!

[@rexrroyer]

Heading back for our second Croatian charter in Sept and will be sailing a Lagoon 42. So looking forward to it. Thanks for sharing.

[@IgorStropnik]

Croatia is the best!

[@parcoursbau5843]

Very nice video about our favorite yachting area, the wonderful coastal landscape of Croatia! And what a great suprise to meet you at Lady Zdravka's Arsenol! Very best wishes!

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks! Next time you should be in video...we do video selfy😊

[@rafaeljaramillo6290]

Thanks Igor for sharing, this is Awesome!!

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks 🙏🙌

[@corkson1744]

What a great mix of topics and videography in this episode, really enjoyed… thanks! 👍 Agree with your comments about the overall attributes of the Lagoon42. When considering the comfort, features, price, performance, quality and more….. it seems that the L42 is a very good compromise of these, especially for purposes of cruising. Easy to understand why such a popular selling model. Please keep up the YT channel videos, we enjoy watching. ⛵️

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks 🙏

[@nicoleginsberg7038]

love your channel... working on getting my own catamaran... just a dream right now

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks! You can do it!

Aaaah another video of sailing on a catamaran in Croatia from Igor! Love it! This is what dreams are made of!

Great video Igor!It's so nice to see Croatian coast and towns..In pa smokve,njami..tu jih ni😢Uživajte!!

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks Maja! Sušene smokve...mnjamm

[@jyk4]

9:40 it goes upwind surprising well! Some "old school sailors" who hate catamarans say that catamarans sail so badly. But I have seen Beneteau and bavaria monohulls going upwind much worse

[@IgorStropnik]

It has ok angle upwind but moving sideways a lot. With daggerboards it would go like monohull.

[@JimmyGlo630]

Good one ☝️ Hvala ti 🍷

Beautiful movie ! Which month was it ? Not so many tourists !

Thanks 🙏 June

Hi Igor, planning to charter a catamaran in Croatia, we just did Bahamas and it was awesome. Like to know if you have a recommendation on a company for chartering catamarans in Croatia, we are possibly 4 couples. We want to mix of tranquility and beauty like in your video but we would also like some night action on a nice town by the ocean. What Itinerary would you recommend for 7 days. Thanks

[@cestmoi1262]

Seeing these beautiful clean shores in Croatia gives me hope that maybe other countries can be persuaded to use Croatia as the go-by of what their shores could look like. I live in Florida but this is still a few cuts above. Now, on the food, for me: mussels, shrimp and octopus don't quite cut it. But to each his own.

[@IgorStropnik]

I hope Croatia shores stay like this forever.

[@ismailcakin]

I follow your videos with interest. Especially the information you provide about catamarans is very useful. The views are great, unfortunately we still haven't had the opportunity to visit Croatia. But we have plans for the future. If I come to Croatia, I would like to meet you.

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks! We can have beer.

Where is the wonderful place by the rocks in 5:10?

[@IgorStropnik]

It is private and owner does not like crowds. Sorry...

[@IgorStropnik]

@Dalmatinski ZAGOR Yes but there are people owning houses next to it and they dont like crowds and I respect their wishes.

[@markinabarki]

It cant be private. All of the Croatias coast is public. I like your content Igor, but dont encourage this kind of behaviour. Its the beauty of our coast, its for everybody to enjoy!

[@markinabarki]

@@IgorStropnik he is not the owner!

[@markalmond5184]

Hi Igor, love your channel! We are sailing out of Trogir in a lagoon 46 on the 31st July this year, any chance you would be available to skipper our boat?

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks Mark! Unfortunately bussy that week. We can do it next year?

[@markalmond5184]

That’s a shame, yes will contact you if we plan another charter to Croatia 👍🏻

[@tonyhalsall3170]

[@lukasfecke9897]

Hi, could i ask how did the watermaker do? Was it enough?

[@IgorStropnik]

Watermaker is the best!

[@lukasfecke9897]

@@IgorStropnik we are deciding between lagoon 42 owners version and lagoon 450 f with watermaker for 7 adults and two small children, what do you think is better choice? Price difference per week is over 2000€

[@IgorStropnik]

@@lukasfecke9897 I prefer flybridge of 450. Many times Watermaker doesn’t work on charter boats.

@@IgorStropnik no problem, its a joke😄. I have visited there in June 2021 a couple of weeks ago, blue lagoon, split and all arround- and lived at a local friend in Segret Vrajica. Did not expect Croatia was so beautyfull.

[@rickyspecs]

Love the videos (especially the dinghy sailing ones) Croatia looks perfect, clean water good food warm weather - want to be there. but also I saw this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6Obd2iHhrOihJI these guys enjoyed the scenery and the culture but they had some concerns about the officials. What do you think, as a knowledgeable local guy?

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks! Very unusual what happened. Dont like they make drama just to get more views. Dont like their atitude also. I have my oppinion what happened but cant share it here...

[@rickyspecs]

@@IgorStropnik that’s reassuring, if you have any advice how to avoid the sort of misunderstanding? Where would I read about arrival/departure rules and local taxes and customs to be sure to be ok?
