QUEEN ALEXANDRA

## Queen Alexandra — Lagoon 51 There is a particular pleasure in cruising Croatia by catamaran: shallow-draft anchorages the bigger yachts have to admire from a distance, and a platform that stays flat while lunch is being served. Queen Alexandra, a Lagoon 51 based on the Adriatic, is built precisely for that kind of week. The Lagoon 51 belongs to a generation of cruising catamarans where the flybridge lounge was drawn into the design from the outset rather than added later — which is why the lines stay clean and the top-deck lounge actually works, both under way and at anchor. It is the natural gathering point on board: sundowners above the water, the whole anchorage in view, and enough space that nobody feels obliged to move. Accommodation runs to six cabins for up to ten guests, with bed configuration confirmed on request. It is a layout that suits multi-generational families and groups of friends travelling together, where separate cabins matter more than a single grand suite. Movement on board has been thought through. Saloon, foredeck, aft cockpit and flybridge each hold their own atmosphere, so a group of ten can spread out naturally — some reading in the shade of the cockpit, others stretched out forward on the trampolines, without anyone crowding anyone else. That quiet separation of spaces is what makes a full boat feel comfortable rather than busy, and it works equally well for corporate groups looking for something more considered than a hotel conference room. The yacht is owner-managed with genuine care, and the standard of finish and upkeep reflects it — closer to a well-run small hotel than a bareboat. Charters run Wednesday to Wednesday, giving you a full week to work the Dalmatian coast at catamaran pace: the Kornati archipelago, Hvar and Vis, the quieter bays in between.
