Wow..would love to hear a story from you 👍

@@IgorStropnik So , there were huge war games called Podgora 72 , our unit in those bunkers was supposed to hit a target drone being pulled by a tugboat . We had old Ansaldi guns 105 mm that were given as part of war compensation by Italy . Anyway I was more concerned that the gun might explode and kill us all than hitting the drone . Btw we missed the target and happily survived .

Interesting 😯👍

Thanks 🍻 Going to Arsenol in 1h 😃

Thanks🙏🍻

You can rent First 21. Local knowledge is always the best but you will be fine on your own with some recherche.

Extra sail would be perfect 👍

Thanks 🙏

Charter boat. I am pro skipper. Thanks 🍻👍

@@IgorStropnik you are living the life dude. Didn’t look like you were doing a whole lot of “skippering” on this cruise!

@@MBdrummer3288 He's just the camera man and chief Critic (positive).

We just spent a week touring Croatia with Igor and experienced the best food of our lives! We’ve been over to over 20 countries, and Croatia had, by far, the best food we’ve ever experienced. Igor is definitely not exaggerating.

Thanks S&J 🍻🙏😃 I am on diet after this season…🍏🍌🥬🥕

Eating and Sailing are partners 😀 The best is to visit Croatia and judge for yourself. We all have different tastes but 99% visitors would agree 🤷

@@IgorStropnik I spent a 3 weeks vacation in Croatia several years ago and must admit that the food is most of the time really good. Nevertheless, I subscribed to your channel because of sailing combined with your excellent seamanship. Unfortunately this gets more and more in the background.

This winter I have a couple of pure sailing projects planed. Back to Sailing 😃

Thanks 🙏🙌

😃🙌🍻

👍🙌🍻

Good idea. This boat had bad plotter but next time I could show on paper chart 🍻🙏

Thanks 🙏

Thanks Kevin🍻 Sailing is easy you learn quickly.

Thanks 🙏 Marijina konoba has buoys but you have to reserve.

Thanks 🙏 Cliffbase

Thanks! Greetings back to Kastela!

🍻

Maybe...

Thanks! This was in July.

No 🦈 🙌👍

Thanks James 🙏🍻 I am 190cm, 100kg

July. Many places 🍻

You can see the front sails better if you are on the edge of boat and also body weight is better against boat healing.

@@IgorStropnik Heeling! Another reason to get a catamaran. Of course now you need a helm station on each side because the boat is so darn wide. I can't win!

Good old tiller steering 😄

@@cestmoi1262 I can't imagine sailing without heeling. Even 30ft now have 2 helm stations because they are so wide you can't see properly from leeward side.

This was july.

Access to Wi-Fi in bays and harbors around the world can vary greatly depending on the location and infrastructure. Some marinas and harbors offer Wi-Fi services to boaters and sailors, but the quality and availability of these services can be inconsistent. Here are some ways to go online while at sea: Marina and Harbor Wi-Fi: Many marinas and harbors in developed areas provide Wi-Fi access to boaters. However, the signal may be limited to certain areas of the marina, and the quality of the connection can vary. Some may charge for access or offer it for free to guests. Cellular Data: Cellular networks often extend to coastal areas, allowing you to use your mobile device's cellular data connection for internet access. Ensure you have a suitable data plan, and be aware that signal strength can weaken as you move farther from the coast. Satellite Internet: Satellite internet is a reliable option for staying connected at sea. There are maritime satellite internet providers that offer global coverage. Equipment costs and subscription fees can be relatively high, but the service is generally stable and offers high-speed internet access. Long-Range Wi-Fi Antennas: Some boaters install long-range Wi-Fi antennas on their vessels to access distant Wi-Fi networks, such as those in harbors or nearby businesses. These antennas can extend your range, but they require setup and configuration. Sailor-Focused Wi-Fi Services: There are companies that cater specifically to the needs of sailors and provide Wi-Fi access solutions at sea. These services often combine satellite connectivity with Wi-Fi hotspots on board. Inmarsat and Iridium: Companies like Inmarsat and Iridium offer satellite communication solutions, including internet access, suitable for maritime use. These services are often used for both communication and data access while at sea. Offshore Internet Cafes: In some coastal areas, you might find offshore internet cafes or vessels that offer internet access to passing boaters. These are mobile Wi-Fi services designed for boaters. Keep in mind that the availability of these options may vary depending on your location and your vessel's capabilities. It's a good idea to plan ahead, research the connectivity options for your specific cruising area, and ensure you have the necessary equipment and plans in place to stay connected while at sea. Additionally, consider redundancy in your connectivity solutions, as being without internet access can be a challenge, especially for longer sea journeys.

In Croatia 5g everywhere. Otherwise starlink.

@@IgorStropnik Hi Igor. We are an family in Oz and love watching your journey. Thank you. We are coming to Trogir to hire an Elba 45 for 7 days. Is 7 days enough to follow your journey on this video? How much time did you take?

@@cameronlgreen We did it in 14days.

😂was thinking the same like wait a minute that's not a fico...glad to know I am not the only one that can recognize a peglica a mile away

I like your thinking 👍😃 Thanks 🍻

@@IgorStropnik That trip from Amsterdam to Barcelona was a huge endorsement for Lagoon and those location beacons are both essential and priceless ??

@@eugenio1542 PLBs and EPIRBs help a lot with safety.

@@IgorStropnik Never heard of them ? How do YOU earn by promoting ? Click the link below ?

@@eugenio1542 I don’t promote.

Charter business demands.

@@IgorStropnik BS, I’ve charted, many times. And you’re full of shift.

Yes 😔

Always afraid but if you know your anchor, local weather and ground of anchorage than risk is little. I never leave boat for long time.

Thanks!
