BAN

MS BAN — 47.30m · Croatia At 47.30 metres, MS BAN belongs to that particular breed of Croatian charter vessel built for the Adriatic's own geography: substantial enough to host a large party in genuine comfort, yet manageable enough to slip into the coves and channels that larger yachts simply cannot reach. Her accommodation is laid out over three separate decks and is unusually consistent — 18 cabins in all, each with a double bed, welcoming up to 38 guests. Ten of those cabins are arranged on the main deck, the remaining eight on the lower deck. For a group travelling together, that uniformity matters more than it might sound: no negotiating over who gets the better cabin, no compromise berths tucked into corners. Everyone aboard is accommodated on the same terms. The scale of the yacht lends itself naturally to the kind of itinerary the Dalmatian coast rewards — island-hopping at an unhurried pace, mornings at anchor in water clear enough to read the seabed, evenings alongside in a walled harbour town. Croatia is a cruising ground of short hops and constant variety, and a vessel of this size covers it without the logistical friction of a fleet of smaller boats. Her crew handles the practical rhythm of a charter of this scale: navigation, service, meals and the daily choreography of moving a large group between islands, ashore and back again. Discretion and consistency are the measure here, day after day, guest after guest.
