Charter a Yacht - Travel Articles
New Winter Sailing
Destinations in the Caribbean

Northern winter.
An Engine Problem
Destroyed My Sailing Holiday. (Charter A Yacht)
Nobody likes to run into problems whilst on holiday, but the very nature
of a yacht charter holiday does demand that you have to cope with the
sea - which is always unpredictable (hence "sea" being of
the feminine gender) - and a vessel, which consists of thousands of
parts and bits of equipment, (electrics, electronics, mechanical items,
sails, etc) all of which should work together, and in unison. You can
ignore all the promises that nothing will go wrong - it might just do
that.
The Rise and
Rise of Croatia for Sailing Holidays
In the 1980s, Croatia - then part of Yugoslavia - built up
a sizeable yacht charter industry. It was never then on the scale to
rival long time favourite Greece, but it was large enough to get itself
noticed as an attractive coming destination. Then came the various Balkan
wars - one of them involving Croatia itself - and the disintegration
of old Yugoslavia. Croatia is now the ex-Yugoslav republic with almost
all the coast line!
