Such a great boat for a family. Loads of space, comfortable, plenty of seating & space to sunbath & take in the scenery. We hired this boat for a day to go to Dugi Otok, sadly due to strong winds we couldn't get all the way round, so we got off at the port & they organised a taxi to take us over to Sakuran beach (which is beautiful). The boat is also slow, so does take some time. Would be perfect for island hopping & few stops closer to Zadar. Great staff, very friendly & helpful and also very accommodating. Would definitely recommend

We have just completed our second rental of the First 36 this year. Another great experience with both the Euronautic team and the First 36 is behind us and what a great experience. The First 36 is simply different than most boats available for rent. It is so responsive, neutral, fast, comfy, spacious and super easy to sail. At first looks the boat looks more like a regatta boat but having tried many different boats the last 15 years, this is really a fantastic boat for both family leisure and sailing fun. Hope to see many more Firsts from Beneteau/Seascape on the water next summer so that many others can enjoy the fun and joy possible with this boat. Highly recommended, both the boat and the team behind. Thanks.

I would 100% do it again, really organised and helpful staff. We rented the Adria 500 which is quite a small boat but nothing beats the price of 100€ plus a few euros fuel.

Our experience with Krzysztof was nothing less than superb, we were looked after like royalty on a boat that was so well looked after it looked like it was being used for the first time! We had the best trip, taken to a number of bays where we could swim, relax and use the seabob. Lunch had been arranged for us at a beautiful restaurant and we were made to feel special the entire day. Just walking on board in the morning to see an amazing selection of fruits and snacks made us feel really welcome and every detail had been considered to make this a trip of a lifetime that our family will remember for ever. Thank you so much!!

What a fantastic week. “Blue Sky” is a stunning vessel and is a credit to her German owner and the Sunturist Team in Zadar that look after her. Everything that was booked and ordered was present on the vessel including the largest bathing towels I have ever seen - well worth the small extra charge ! The Sunturist 24Hr call-out phone was answered immediately early one morning when I rang it to check up on the operation of the vessels pumps following heavy overnight rain. Very economical 8 litres/ h diesel consumption on relaxed passage making at 6.5 knots. We will be back. Thanks to Samboat and Sunturist charters who I highly recommend.

From start to finish this was a great hire experience. Tonci replied quickly and the arrangements for were very clear and everything went very smoothly. The boat was extremely well presented and maintained. Everything worked perfectly. Extras such as an ice box with frozen blocks, Bluetooth speaker and snorkel masks were much appreciated. Tonci provided some great locations to visit and to have lunch. Returning the boat was simple. We refuelled and paid only for the fuel used and handed the boat back. I would highly recommend hiring from Tonci.
