Isabela

Home port: ACI Marina Pula, Pontoon A · Berth 19.

Isabela is a Salona 45 — a modern performance cruiser designed by J&J Design and built in Croatia by Salona Yachts. She strikes the balance we look for in a sail-training and charter boat: comfortable enough for a relaxed day on the water, fast and responsive enough to actually sail on the wind when it fills in.

The cockpit is spacious with a bimini for shade on sunny afternoons and twin wheels for good visibility. Below deck are four double cabins, two heads, and a bright saloon — plenty of room to change, cool off, or shelter if the weather turns.

Hobie F18 · Formula 18 Catamaran

Wild Cat

A true Formula 18 racing catamaran — quick, twitchy, and a lot of fun.

Alongside Isabela we sail a Hobie Wild Cat — a Formula 18 (F18) class racing catamaran. Two hulls, a fully-battened square-top mainsail, a self-tacking jib and an asymmetric spinnaker on a retractable pole. Light, fast and beach-launchable, it's built for two on trapezes and it flies.

We use it for playful sailing off the anchor on charter days, and for high-adrenaline dinghy sessions if you want to try something faster and closer to the water than a keelboat.
