An Unforgettable Voyage with World Yachting on SeaBee!

My family and I had an extraordinary experience with World Yachting. Their service was second to none, always demonstrating utmost professionalism and friendliness that surpassed our expectations. Our vessel of choice, the "SeaBee" (Elan I43), was in immaculate condition, evidently well maintained, and superbly equipped for a sailing adventure.

The SeaBee offered surprising dimensions, exceeding 45 feet, a figure much grander than its name might suggest. It boasted three refrigerators, perfect for storing provisions for our sea expedition. The additional by-boat was an excellent bonus, offering us even more flexibility in our marine explorations.

Navigation was made a breeze thanks to the fantastic navigation system onboard, and the radar ensured our voyage was safe and secure. But it wasn't just the equipment that impressed us; it was the complete package that the SeaBee represented, ensuring our comfort and delight at every turn of our journey.

Our exploration of the spectacular archipelago around Šibenik and the breathtaking Kornati National Park was facilitated by the SeaBee's commendable capabilities. The locations, an hour's reach from each other, were stunning, enriching our family trip with unforgettable memories. The sheer joy of sailing in the magnificent Croatian seascape is something that we will treasure forever.

In essence, I wholeheartedly recommend World Yachting and the SeaBee (Elan I43) to anyone seeking to explore the beauty of Croatia. This voyage proved to be the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and family bonding. In my view, there truly isn't a better way to experience the majesty of Croatia than from the sea, aboard a chartered yacht from World Yachting. I'm confident that like us, you'll return home with a heart full of joy and a head filled with precious memories. Thank you, World Yachting, for an unforgettable journey!

Rent and skipper a sailing yacht with World Yachting Charter was a beautiful experience. The staff (Dome) was very helpful and willing to show all functionalities of the boat. The yacht (Sun Odyssey 409 | Stellina 2) is after renovation with completely new sails (lazy bag mainsail with genoa). The engine worked perfectly. New cockpit bimini protected all the crew members against sunburn. I was very satisfied with the skipper tools provided (all Croatian charts, maps of ports, harnesses, toolkit of screewdrivers and allen keys, day shapes, mast climbing equipment ...). I am looking foward to rent a yacht with them next year again.

Fantastic service with polite and professional crew. Thanks Laura and Petar for fast check in and out. Hope to see you again

We had a great experience with World Yachting in Sibenik! We rented the Furiosa, an Antares 11 Fly, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. The boat was in excellent condition – clean, well-maintained, and performed perfectly during our time at sea.

Communication with the reception was outstanding – they were professional, responsive, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. The staff was very helpful and friendly, always ready to assist when needed.

The only small note is that the mooring ropes could be replaced with new ones, but this didn’t impact our overall experience.

All in all, a very reliable company and a great charter experience. We’d be happy to rent from them again!

We have never completed formalities in the office so quickly (deposit, documents...), very efficient boss.
After a short wait, a friendly sailor Ivan showed us around and explained everything on the Kiss the Life sailing boat. Despite the heat and steam, and with an injured hand, Ivan devoted himself 100% to us.
The sailing boat had new sails and was really fast with the wind on its side. In general, it was well maintained.
Disadvantage 1:
When I booked from home, I saw that this boat would not have solar panels, which means an additional two hours of idling at anchor every day so that the voltage does not drop below 12V if the refrigerator is on. Not a big deal, because a few extra liters of oil to produce electricity is cheaper than a sailing boat with solar panels.
Shortcoming 2:
The boss could perhaps ask the D-Marina lift operator to move the lift 20 m towards the sea to make it easier to get to pier A = currently the passage is limited and unsightly (photo attached)
When I was returning to the marina, the bora was blowing, because the boat does not have a bowthruster, they offered me a landing on the outer pier, which made the entry maneuver much easier. They patiently advised me on the right way.
I made a good decision regarding WY - I recommend it, also because I watched the neighboring teams on the boats how professionally (= with coolness) they defended the damage caused by other guests.

First part of my review, relating to the rental procedure and request for information: helpful team, arranged the best solution for us without trying to maximize extra costs, which I appreciated.

Second part, after the cruise: we found a friendly, helpful and competent team, both in the office and on the piers. All of our requests were kindly discussed and, as far as possible, satisfied. The sailing boat (2020) was in excellent condition (some minor glitches, which is normal for a charter boat, heavily used under the season), clean and ready.
When I rent a sailboat, I focus on the sailing aspects: the deck equipment was in very good condition; mainsail and jib were in perfect working order (we didn't rent a gennaker, because the expected wind conditions were not suitable); no hidden flaws.

A thoroughly successful charter. We were in Sibenek from May 18th to 25th, 2024, and chartered a boat there for a week. We were all completely satisfied with the condition of the boat (Hanse 508), the cleanliness of the facilities, and the service from World Yachting Charter. Many thanks to Laura and Alex!

Fantastic holiday. Highly equipped and modern ships with great staff who are at your service from 0-24.
