Who FREEDOM suits
FREEDOM accommodates a party of 24 across 11 cabins, making her a practical choice for large groups seeking a comprehensive onboard experience. With a crew of 12 attending to the vessel, she provides a versatile setting for extended family gatherings or social celebrations. Guests can make use of the gym, the sauna, the movie theatre, and the water slide, ensuring that time spent on board remains active and engaging for all ages.
At 48.2 m, she sits at a length shorter than the typical yacht found in the region, yet she takes on more guests than most alternatives. Her build year remains similar to other vessels operating in Croatia, and she maintains a weekly rate similar to comparable options. Despite these physical proportions, she does not feel limited, as her internal configuration creates a comfortable environment for those who prefer a high capacity for their social events.
The best time to experience FREEDOM is between April and November, when she operates in the East Mediterranean, Croatia, and Montenegro. These months provide stable conditions for coastal exploration through the 2027 and 2028 seasons. Whether you are planning a late spring voyage or a warm autumn escape, she remains well-positioned to explore these Adriatic destinations.

Cruising Croatia: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The charter season runs from May to October. July and August are the warmest and busiest months, with light to moderate Maestral winds blowing from the north-west in the afternoons. May, June, September, and October offer quieter anchorages and cooler temperatures. The Bora, a strong north-easterly wind, and the Jugo, a south-easterly wind, are more frequent outside the peak summer months, requiring careful anchorage selection.
Practical tips
- Fly into Split (SPU) or Dubrovnik (DBV). Split marinas are about 30 minutes away, Trogir is 5 to 10 minutes, and ACI Marina Dubrovnik is 30 minutes from DBV.
- Yachts must register crew and guest lists with the e-Crew system before departure, and local tourist taxes are calculated per person, per day.
- Town quays often use lazy lines rather than anchors. Harbourmasters allocate berths on a first-come, first-served basis, so arrive early in the afternoon during July and August.
Anchorages to know
- Hvar Town, HvarA busy port with Venetian architecture, offering town quay mooring and a nearby anchorage at the Pakleni Islands for quieter nights.
- Skradin, Krka RiverLocated up the Krka River, this town provides access to the Krka National Park waterfalls and requires navigating a buoyed channel from Šibenik.
- Polače, MljetA large, pine-fringed bay on the northern coast of Mljet Island, providing good holding and direct access to the trails of Mljet National Park.
- Zaklopatica, LastovoA well-protected bay on the northern side of Lastovo island, shielded by a small islet, offering safe mooring and clear water for swimming.
