Discover the Adriatic's hidden coves and crystalline anchorages aboard Ana, a nimble 2024 Antares 9 OB based at Marina Kornati in Biograd Na Moru. This compact yet well-appointed motor boat is purpose-built for exploring Croatia's rugged coastline—where limestone cliffs plunge into turquoise waters and centuries-old fishing villages dot the shoreline. With two comfortable cabins sleeping up to six guests, Ana suits small families, groups of friends, or couples seeking an intimate escape without sacrificing comfort or capability.

The boat's thoughtful layout maximises time spent outdoors. The teak cockpit, shaded by a Bimini top, becomes your floating living room—a perfect perch for morning coffee or evening aperitifs. Plush cockpit cushions invite lingering, while the convertible table adapts to dining or lounging. When the heat peaks, the bow platform provides direct access to the sea for swimming and snorkelling in secluded bays. Below deck, a well-stocked refrigerator keeps provisions fresh, and the GPS chartplotter ensures confident navigation through the Kornati archipelago's intricate passages.

A typical week unfolds at a gentle rhythm. Mornings might see you motoring to a different anchorage—perhaps Telašćica Bay with its dramatic sea cliffs, or the quiet islands of the Kornati National Park. The bow thruster makes tight mooring effortless, even for less experienced skippers. Afternoons dissolve into swimming, reading, and exploring by dinghy. Evenings bring local grilled fish and Dalmatian wine at waterfront restaurants in villages like Murter or Veli Lošinj, accessible by a short cruise. The boat's Suzuki engine delivers reliable, economical performance across the region's varied conditions.

Each night, you'll anchor in a different secluded cove—waking to the gentle lap of water against the hull and the cry of gulls overhead. By week's end, you'll have traced a route through some of the Mediterranean's most unspoiled waters, returning to Marina Kornati with memories of sunsets over uninhabited islands and the simple luxury of life at sea.
