Her Story

Built in 2008 by skilled Croatian craftsmen, Morning Star represents the perfect marriage of traditional gulet design and contemporary luxury. This 27-metre vessel underwent a comprehensive redesign in 2021, transforming her into one of Croatia's most sought-after charter gulets. Her 7.5-metre beam creates generous living spaces throughout, while the 2.6-metre draft allows access to secluded coves and pristine anchorages along the Adriatic coast.

Powered by a single 450-horsepower engine, Morning Star glides effortlessly through Croatian waters, with twin 9,000-litre fuel and water tanks ensuring extended cruising autonomy. The vessel's construction reflects decades of Mediterranean maritime heritage, combining robust engineering with the elegant lines that define the gulet tradition.

The interior showcases warm cherry wood finishes complemented by bright tones and tasteful detailing, creating an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. The main saloon seamlessly integrates dining and lounge areas, featuring stylish mahogany furniture and natural light that floods through panoramic windows. A fully equipped galley includes professional-grade ovens, grills, refrigerators, deep freezers, an ice maker, and espresso machine.

Her deck layout maximises both social spaces and private retreats. The aft deck features a hardtop for shade and comfortable alfresco dining, while the bow deck offers dedicated sunbathing areas with plush cushions and mattresses. Throughout her design, Morning Star embodies the Croatian gulet tradition while delivering the refined comfort expected by discerning charter guests.

Croatia

The Adriatic’s Best-Kept Secret

Morning Star offers an unparalleled gateway to Croatia's legendary coastline, where her shallow 2.6-metre draft unlocks access to hidden coves and pristine anchorages that larger vessels simply cannot reach. From her base in Split, she navigates effortlessly between the crystalline waters surrounding Hvar, the untouched wilderness of Vis, and the tranquil bays of the Pakleni Islands, each destination revealing new facets of Croatia's maritime magnificence.

The vessel's impressive collection of water sports equipment transforms every Croatian anchorage into an adventure playground. Her SeaBob glides through the gin-clear waters of Stiniva Bay, while the wakeboard and water skis create excitement in the calmer waters around Šolta. The kayak provides intimate access to the Blue Grotto on Biševo, and snorkelling gear reveals the underwater treasures of Kornati National Park.

With her professional Croatian crew sharing intimate knowledge of secret beaches, authentic konoba restaurants, and optimal sailing conditions, Morning Star becomes more than a charter vessel – she becomes your personal ambassador to the Adriatic's most cherished destinations, from the medieval charm of Trogir to the lavender fields of Hvar and the untamed beauty of Lastovo.
