DALMATINO

## DALMATINO — 43.53m / 143ft Gulet, 2019 At just under 44 metres, DALMATINO belongs to the upper tier of the modern gulet fleet — a scale where the traditional Turkish-built form gains the volume of a proper superyacht without losing what makes these yachts so well suited to the Adriatic. Delivered in 2019, she cruises the Croatian coast, and that is precisely where a yacht of this type earns its keep: shallow, sheltered bays, stone harbours where anything sharper-bowed would look out of place, and passages between islands short enough that speed matters far less than the quality of the hours spent aboard. Six cabins accommodate twelve guests. The layout centres on an owner's cabin and a VIP cabin, with four further guest cabins completing the arrangement; detailed bed configurations are confirmed on request, which allows the yacht to be set up around the makeup of each individual charter party — a family group and a group of couples do not want the same thing, and DALMATINO can be prepared for either. She is a displacement cruiser in the honest sense, moving at nine knots with twelve available when the itinerary demands it. In Croatia this is no compromise. Distances between Hvar, Vis, Korčula and the Kornati are measured in a morning rather than a day, and the pace suits the cruising: long lunches at anchor, afternoons in the water, arrivals in the late light rather than a rush from port to port. Eight crew look after twelve guests — a ratio that shapes the whole experience. It is enough to keep the service attentive without becoming intrusive: the table set before you think of it, the tender ready when you are, local knowledge offered when it is useful and withheld when it is not. On a yacht of this size in these waters, that balance is what separates a good week from a memorable one.
