Not every nautical mile is a charter – some are simply part of life with fast multihulls. 😎 This week, a Dragonfly 32 delivery was on the agenda. And even though there’s a harbour waiting at the end of the journey, every trip on a Dragonfly reminds me why these boats have fascinated me for so many years. Light, fast, extraordinary – and simply different from conventional sailing. That’s exactly the feeling we want to share with our guests. If you don’t just want to admire a

Today, we’re returning to Portopiccolo with our Dragonfly 28 after a longer trip. Tomorrow it’s time to prepare the boat, do the final checks – and by the afternoon we’ll be ready to welcome our next guests. 😊 This time, we’re doing exactly the combination we particularly enjoy offering: 3 days of intensive starter training on the Dragonfly 28 – followed by 7 days of bareboat charter, giving our guests the opportunity to put everything they’ve learned straight into practice.

The beautiful weather on the Adriatic has come to a rather abrupt end. A massive cold front has moved in – right while we’re delivering the boat from Zadar to Portopiccolo. We managed to cross the Kvarner just in time. So today it’s: lines secured, stay in port and wait out the weather. 🌧️💨 But who says a day in port has to be boring? 😉 These wonderful street musicians gave us the perfect unexpected change of pace today. Just listen, enjoy the music – and forget about the

Portopiccolo divides opinion. Some people say it’s not a “real” Italian village because it was built from scratch. Maybe that’s true. But here’s the thing: when the evening sun paints the streets in golden light, children are playing in the square, people are laughing, glasses are clinking, and the aroma of freshly baked pizza fills the air… it suddenly doesn’t matter anymore. You can’t build atmosphere with concrete. Atmosphere is created by people. And this place has plenty

Some places have a way of slowing life down – and Piran is definitely one of them. With its narrow Venetian streets, the beautiful Tartini Square and its charming little harbour, this coastal town is one of the true gems of the Northern Adriatic. After a wonderful day under sail, starting with shifting winds and finishing with a relaxed 9-knot ride under Code Zero, we arrived in Piran in the late afternoon. Days like these remind us why we love sailing. To top it all off, we

Don’t worry – my Dragonfly 28 Sport is doing just fine. In fact, she’s currently sailing the Adriatic with wonderful guests from Switzerland. After completing an intensive trimaran training, they are now enjoying almost two weeks of bareboat charter, exploring the coastline on their own. Meanwhile, I’ve taken the opportunity to switch perspectives for a few days. Instead of sailing my sporty trimaran, I’m currently on board the DCS Amethyst 1, enjoying a beautiful river cruis

I’m out sailing solo today, enjoying a beautiful afternoon sea breeze of around 8–10 knots. The Dragonfly is happily cruising along at about 8 knots – the perfect conditions for relaxed summer sailing. On the horizon, hundreds of boats are anchored off the mouth of the Isonzo River. It’s easy to see why: sandy seabed, shallow crystal-clear water, a well-protected anchorage, and a refreshing cool breeze make this one of the locals’ favorite places to spend a sunny day. On a Su

With 0.0 knots of wind, even a Dragonfly Trimaran has to admit defeat. 😄 Sailing is only so much fun without any breeze, so I decided to use the opportunity to visit some of my berth neighbours and maintain a few local connections here in Portopiccolo. Since I have no guests on board today, I was invited aboard my neighbour’s impressive Dominator 65 – a classic Italian motor yacht with plenty of style and elegance. The shipyard was founded by former Formula One drivers, so s

Sometimes it’s the simple moments that make a sailing day unforgettable. After a beautiful day on the water with sunshine, 6–8 knots of breeze and a steady boat speed above 7 knots, we arrive in Piran. This charming Venetian-style town is one of the gems of the Slovenian coast, full of character, atmosphere and Mediterranean flair. Before entering the harbour, we round the lighthouse, stow the sails and fold the amas. Within minutes, the fast trimaran transforms into an easy

After 3 days of trimaran training together, my guests are now sailing on their own along the coast of Istria. Light winds, crystal-clear water – and still relaxed but exciting sailing on the Dragonfly 28 Sport Trimaran “Don Cangrejo”. His conclusion today via video message:“Everything is fine, everything is great – only one problem: I want a boat like this too.” 😂 So be careful:⚠️ HIGHLY ADDICTIVE! ⚠️ A Dragonfly Trimaran is not just sailing.It’s speed without heeling. Freed

With only 5–6 knots of wind, we are already sailing at 7–8 knots with our new Ferrari-red Code Zero from Portopiccolo towards Piran. The trimaran glides silently across the mirror-flat Adriatic Sea – simply fantastic. These are the moments that become addictive.Light wind. Full performance. Pure freedom. If you would like to experience this yourself one day, just get in touch. #DragonflyTrimaran #CodeZero #FerrariRed #TrimaranSailing #Portopiccolo #Piran #SailingAdventures #A

Perfect weather all weekend long and an amazing atmosphere in my home marina Portopiccolo. A beautiful event brought many historic sailing boats and classic yachts to the harbor. Lovingly restored, polished to perfection and decorated with authentic historic details, these boats were true eye-catchers — and visitors could even step aboard and explore them. ⛵✨ Naturally, this attracted many guests from the region and created a super cool mix of maritime history, Mediterranean
