009

Based in the crystalline waters of the Adriatic, this 2020 ClubSwan 36 offers an intimate sailing experience from ACI Marina Split—a gateway to Croatia's most coveted coastline. Designed for couples or small groups seeking authentic exploration, this elegant 11-metre sailboat combines refined performance with thoughtful comfort, making it ideal for sailors who value both capability and relaxation. A week aboard unfolds across the Dalmatian islands, where limestone cliffs meet turquoise anchorages and medieval stone towns dot the shoreline. The yacht's well-appointed cabin provides a peaceful retreat, while the open cockpit becomes your vantage point for sunset aperitifs and morning coffee as you drift between hidden coves. The efficient galley allows for simple meal preparation—imagine fresh local catches and Dalmatian wines enjoyed at anchor—while the modern navigation systems and responsive sailing characteristics ensure each day feels both purposeful and unhurried. Split itself is a living museum; you'll depart from a city where Roman palaces stand alongside contemporary culture, then transition seamlessly into the quieter rhythms of the islands. The ClubSwan 36 is nimble enough to explore shallow anchorages and narrow channels that larger vessels cannot reach, yet substantial enough to feel secure in open water. Whether you're anchoring off Vis, threading through the Pakleni Islands, or discovering lesser-known spots around Hvar and Brač, the yacht's responsive helm and well-balanced design make every passage engaging rather than demanding. This is sailing stripped to its essence: the sound of water against the hull, the satisfaction of reading wind and current, the freedom to linger where others rush past. A week aboard the 009 is measured not in miles covered but in the quality of silence found in remote anchorages, the taste of grilled octopus at a waterfront taverna, and the particular magic of the Adriatic at dusk.
