MaestralThe standard

The same crossing every time, written down.

This is our first season, so there is no wall of reviews to read. Instead: what happens between your message and your quay, what it costs, what it costs when it goes wrong, and the licence numbers you can look up.

€0: Paid before the day
1 h: Typical reply in season
1: Group per boat

We answer with a price and a boat
One fare for the whole boat, VAT and fuel included on transfers. If the GT7 suits your bags and your landing time better than the Saxdor, we say so — even though it is the cheaper boat.
The slot is held on your name
No deposit and no card details on this site. Your name and your flight number are the booking.

Bura and jugo happen in July too. You hear from the skipper, not from a calendar. A route change is offered first; a cancellation by us costs you nothing.

Cash or card on board, at the end. His number stays in your phone for the way back.

Then he washes her down and refuels for the morning. That part of the day is not yours, and it is the only part we would not invite you to.

What the fare does not show

The difference between two prices is usually a difference in who carries the risk. Here is where ours sits.

Deposit: How we run itNone. You pay the skipper at the end of the day.; What we were quoted, elsewhere30–50% on booking, usually non-refundable.
Weather: How we run itThe skipper calls it 12–24 h ahead. If we cancel, it costs you nothing.; What we were quoted, elsewhereCancellation windows counted in days, with the deposit at risk.
Fuel: How we run itIncluded in every transfer fare. On day trips, billed at the end on what your route actually burned — typically €150–300.; What we were quoted, elsewhereBundled at the worst case, or added at the pontoon.
The deck: How we run itOne group. Never shared, never sold by the seat.; What we were quoted, elsewhereTwelve seats sold individually, one fixed return time.
A late flight: How we run itFlight number tracked, the skipper waits, €0.; What we were quoted, elsewhereWaiting billed by the half hour, or the slot released.
After dark: How we run itInfrared thermal camera on the Saxdor. Before 06:00 and after 21:00 the fare carries +25%, stated on the quote.; What we were quoted, elsewhereDaylight crossings only.
At the helm: How we run itOne of two named skippers, both from Brač. You are told which one before you travel.; What we were quoted, elsewhereA roster — you meet whoever is free that morning.

Fixed, whatever you book

Five things that do not change with the route, the boat or the season.

Guests, and the deck is yours

One group per boat. We do not sell seats and we never put two bookings on one deck.

Notice on the weather

The skipper reads the marine forecast the evening before and calls you. A route change comes before a cancellation.

Skippers, both licensed

Voditelj brodice C with STCW basic safety training, both from Brač. You are told which one is taking you.

Das ist unsere erste Saison, eine Wand voller Bewertungen finden Sie hier also noch nicht. Was Sie finden: eine Lizenz, ein registriertes Unternehmen und Bedingungen, die das Risiko bei uns lassen — nichts ist vorab zu zahlen, und ein verspäteter Flug kostet Sie nichts.

What we do not do

The list that usually gets left off.

No reviews yet. This is our first season. The first Google and TripAdvisor reviews appear here when guests write them, not before.
No shared boats and no per-seat pricing. Two of you or eight, the fare is the whole boat — which means at two people a group tour is cheaper, and we will say so.
No fuel inside the day-trip price. It is billed at the end on what your route actually burned, because bundling it means charging the short days for the long ones.
No pressure to decide today. Nothing is held with money, so there is nothing for us to gain by hurrying you.
No skipper you have not been told about. If the one you were promised cannot sail, you hear it from us before you travel, not at the pontoon.
