EDITOR'S LETTER

DYNAMIC SPR ING

Dok nas prvi ovogodišnji maestrali podsjećaju da ljeto brzo stiže, pravi ljubitelji snijega još uvijek uživaju u proljetnom skijanju, a najnestrpljiviji nautičari već su 'odrišili cimu'. S dolaskom Uskrsa većina hotelskog smještaja otvara svoja vrata, a lijepo vrijeme mami nas u prirodu. Proljeće nam nudi dinamiku u svakom smislu, za uživanje u ponovnom pokretanju života nakon zimske stanke. Kako ćete ga provesti, ovisi o vašim osobnim preferencijama, a oni koje zanima svijet vrhunskog jahtinga doći će na svoje i na našim stranicama. Uz 'svemirske' nove projekte, donosimo recenziju najuspješnijeg modela 50-metarske jahte na svijetu, tri sasvim nove jahte od 70 stopa i ultramoderni gumenjak od 13 metara, svi predstavljeni prošle jeseni na nautičkim sajmovima. Dinamikom možemo nazvati i lajtmotiv našeg sugovornika Matjaža Murka, koji je jedan od najaktivnijih protagonista lokalne nautičke scene u posljednjih trideset godina. Zaronite u naš proljetni 'prozor u svijet', protkan luksuzom i kvalitetom, uživanjem u prvoklasnim i dinamičnim temama.

While the first mistral of the year is reminding us that summer is around the corner, true snow bunnies are still enjoying spring skiing, and the most impatient sailors have already untied their moorings. Most hotels open during the Easter, while nature beckons us into her arms with sunshine and warmer weather. Spring is dynamic in every way, marking a new start after the winter tranquility. How you heed its call is up to you and your preferences, and those interested in the best of the yachting world will find an idea or two on our pages. Meet fantastic new projects, read what we thought about the most successful 50-meter yacht model in the world, review three brand new 70-foot yachts and an ultra-modern 13-meter RIB, all new debuts from last fall boat shows. Dynamics is also the leitmotif of our guest of the issue, Matjaž Murko, who is one of the most successful protagonists of the local nautical scene in the last thirty years. Dive into spring and into our world sprinkled with luxury, top quality and an overall lust for life and all it has to offer.

YACHTING

Moonrise na pomolu Moonrise Exits the Shed FEADSHIP Nedavno predstavljena jahta Moonrise, impresivnih dimenzija od 101 metra, trenutno je u izgradnji u pogonu Feadshipa u Makkumu.

Profinjena evolucija svoje istoimene prethodnice, nova Moonrise nosi iste otmjene dizajnerske elemente, od elegantnih vanjskih linija i snažnog okomitog luka do profinjene palete boje u sivim i snježnobijelim tonovima. Najočitija vanjska promjena – i prvi put na jednom Feadshipu – jest potpuno odsustvo radarskih kupola koje superjahte obično nose. Jarbol je također viši, paluba za sunčanje veća, s prostorom za masažu, teretanom i frizerskim salonom, a vanjske palube i platforma za kupanje su povećani i produljeni. Nova Moonrise ima vlasničku palubu i privatno kino na palubi, na kojoj se nalazi i upravljačko mjesto. Moonrise je trenutno u fazi ugradnje i opremanja, nakon čega slijede testovi na vodi i isporuka vlasniku.

The newly unveiled Moonrise is an impressive 101.00-metre yacht in build at the Feadship facility in Makkum. A refined evolution of her predecessor – also called Moonrise – the new Moonrise carries forward the same graceful design traits, from the sleek exterior lines and powerful vertical bow to the elegant paintwork in grey and snow-white tones. But the most obvious exterior change – and a first for Feadship – is the complete absence of the domes typically found on superyachts. The mast is also taller, the sun deck more expansive with a massage area, gym and hairdressing salon, and the exterior decks and swim platform have been extended. The yacht features an owner’s deck and a private cinema on the bridge deck. Moonrise is currently undergoing further outfitting and will proceed with sea trials before being delivered to its owner.

Potpuno prilagođena superjahta Fully Bespoke Superyacht CRN CRN predstavlja jahtu duljine 67 metara s istisninskim trupom građenim od čelika i aluminija. Prethodno poznata kao Projekt Maranello, M/Y Amor à Vida je dugačka 67,55 metara, široka 11,80 metara i teška 1450 tona, a kombinira znanje majstora kuće CRN, iskustvo, dizajn i kvalitetu izrade s kreativnošću studija Nuvolari Lenard, koji potpisuje i vanjski stil i dizajn interijera. Vanjske linije su otmjene, promišljeno jednostavne, impresivne i moćne – krasi je jedinstven stilski identitet koji uzima u obzir posebne zahtjeve vlasnika i utjelovljuje njegovu viziju i stil života. Jahta je opremljena najsuvremenijim hibridnim pogonskim sustavom, koji povećava učinkovitost korištenja goriva, kao i glavnih motora i generatora, što sve zajedno doprinosi komforu u plovidbi. Sustav povrata topline optimizira upravljanje toplom vodom za bazene i sanitarije, smanjujući energetski utjecaj jahte na okolinu i snižavajući troškove, ali uz brz i efikasan rad.

CRN launches 67-metre full-custom pleasure vessel with a displacement hull, built from steel and aluminum. Previously known as Project Maranello, M/Y Amor à Vida, 67.55 metres in length overall, 11.80 metres in the beam and 1450 GT, combines CRN’s know-how and the shipyard’s design and build quality with the creativity of Nuvolari Lenard for the exterior styling and interior design of this superyacht.

Her exterior styling is sleek, taut, sweeping and powerful - a distinct stylistic identity that fully embraces the owner’s specific requirements and embodies his vision and lifestyle. The yacht is fitted with a state-of-the-art hybrid propulsion system that increases the fuel efficiency of both the main engines and the generators and improves guests’ comfort while underway. A heat recovery system is also installed to optimize hot water management for the pools and plumbing system, reducing energy impact and costs while ensuring fast and efficient service.

YACHTING Prva aluminijska superjahta Full-Aluminium Superyacht CUSTOM LINE Custom Line 50 nova je najveća istisninska jahta u segmentu metalnih jahti ispod 500 GT. Dugačka 49,90 m i široka 9,60 m nova superjahta proteže se na četiri palube i predstavlja neka inovativna konstrukcijska i dizajnerska rješenja. Dva najzanimljivija su vlasnički apartman u pramcu na gornjoj palubi i beach club krma s infinity bazenom integriranim u glavnu palubu, jedinstveni prostor za druženje od 120 četvornih metara u bliskom kontaktu s morem. Životni prostori protežu se na više od 800 četvornih metara, od čega čak 324 četvorna metra otpada na vanjske prostore. Izdašne prostorije dimenzija prikladnijih za mnogo veće jahte rezultat su pažljivog planiranja s ciljem maksimalne privatnosti i za vlasnika i goste. S gazom od 2,2 metra, nova jahta je idealna za krstarenje i sidrenje u plitkim vodama poput onih na Karibima. Može smjestiti do 12 gostiju u vlasničkom apartmanu i u četiri kabine u potpalublju, a još pet kabina dizajnirano je za maksimalnu udobnost za devet članova posade.

Isti luksuz u manjim dimenzijama Same Luxury in Smaller Craft TA N K O A YA C H T S Prvi model Tankoa Yachts kraći od 50 metara, T450, proširuje ponudu luksuznih modela kuće, nudeći sve elemente svojih prethodnika u kompaktnijim dimenzijama.

Građena od robusne kombinacije čelika i aluminija, T450 je inovativna jahta koju je razvio studio Cassetta – Yacht Design & Architecture. Dizajn održava bezvremensku estetiku Tankoe, ali i uvodi upadljive okomite elemente u nadgrađe i otmjene vodoravne linije, pa je krasi osebujan, moderan profil. Glavni salon jahte Go, prvog primjerka modela T450, komforno je utočište za vlasnika i goste koje nudi predivan pogled na okolinu od čak 270 stupnjeva. Vlasnički apartman je smješten na pramcu glavne palube: taj golemi privatni prostor je i miran i opuštajući – savršeno utočište.

U potpalublju ima mjesta za čak pet luksuznih apartmana za goste, više nego dovoljno smještaja za sve prijatelje i obitelj. Veliki prozori omogućuju prodor prirodne svjetlosti u unutrašnjost, pritom ističući prostranost svakog područja. Velika beach club krma ima i bočne platforme koje se spuštaju s obje strane i pomično, klizno sunčalište koje prekriva bazen u plovidbi.

As the first model under 50 meters from Tankoa Yachts, the T450 expands the shipyard’s range of luxury yachts, bringing the builder's values to the market of more compact vessels. Built with a robust combination of steel and aluminium, the T450 is an innovative project developed by Cassetta – Yacht Design & Architecture. The design maintains Tankoa’s timeless aesthetic while introducing bold vertical elements to the superstructure and sleek horizontal lines, creating a distinctive and modern profile. The main saloon of M/Y Go, the first unit of the T450 series, is a sanctuary of comfort for both the owner and guests, offering stunning 270-degree views of the water. The owner's suite, located forward on the main deck, is a vast private space that is both tranquil and calming, providing the perfect retreat for world-class relaxation and sleep; while on the lower deck, five luxurious guest suites ensure ample accommodation for all visitors. Expansive windows flood the interior with natural light, highlighting the spaciousness of each area. The generous beach club features opening side platforms that wrap around the stern and a sliding sunpad that covers the pool during navigation.

PROLJEĆE SPRING 2025

Custom Line 50 is the new displacement flagship and makes her debut in the metal yachts segment under 500 GT. The superyacht, 49.90 m long and 9.60 m in the beam, extends across four decks and introduces some innovative construction and design solutions, such as the owner’s suite in the bow on the upper deck, reserved exclusively for the owner, and the beach club with infinity pool integrated into the main deck, a unique 120-square-metre convivial space in close contact with the water. The liveable spaces on board cover over 800 square metres, of which 324 square metres of exteriors. The generous volumes, usually found on much larger boats, are the result of careful development to deliver maximum on-board privacy for owner and guests. With a draught of 2.2 metres, the yacht is ideal for cruising and mooring in shallow waters such as those in the Caribbean. She can accommodate up to 12 guests in a master suite and in four cabins on the lower deck. Another five cabins are designed for the nine crew members.

YACHTING Značajna evolucija brenda Significant Brand Evolution MAIORA

Prvi primjerak modela Superyachts 42 First 42M Superyacht SIRENA Gradnja prvog modela Sirena Superyachts od 42 metra uvelike je u tijeku, a tursko brodogradilište nedavno je izvijestilo da su trup i nadgrađe spojeni i radovi na projektu napreduju prema planu. Kuća planira predstaviti svoj novi najveći model već iduće godine. Jahtu su zajednički dizajnirali Luca Vallebona (eksterijer i interijer) i Hot Lab (interijer), dio The Viken Group, dok je studio Van Oossanen bio zadužen za projektiranje. Sirena 42M ima raskošne otvorene prostore za druženje i boravak na morskom zraku, prostrane vanjske zone za opuštanje, prepoznatljivu vlasničku kabinu s privatnom terasom i golemu krmu izvedenu kao beach club, koja se može spustiti. Raspored prostorija na novoj Sirena Superyachts 42 može se do visoke razine prilagoditi idejama vlasnika – opcije uključuju smještanje vlasničkog apartmana na glavnu ili gornju palubu, što zauzvrat omogućuje izvedbu formalne blagovaonice u salonu ili nešto ležerniji raspored na glavnoj palubi, kao i izvedbu prostora za druženje u pramcu za formalne večere ili samo za druženje.

The construction of the first Sirena Superyachts 42-meter model is well underway. The Turkish shipyard has reported that the hull and superstructure have been joined, and work on the project is progressing according to plan. The company plans to launch its new flagship in 2026. The vessel was designed by Luca Vallebona (exterior and interior layouts) and Hot Lab (interior design), part of The Viken Group, while Van Oossanen was responsible for the naval architecture. The Sirena 42M boasts open entertaining areas, spacious external relaxation zones, a distinctive master cabin with a private patio, and a vast beach club with drop-down bulwarks. The layout of the 42-meter Sirena Superyachts model can be highly customized to suit the owner's needs.

Options include placing the owner’s suite on either the main or upper deck, which in turn allows for a dedicated dining area in the saloon or a more casual setting, as well as the creation of a guest area in the bow for fine dining or pure relaxation.

Maiora predstavlja Maioru M|36, prvi model nove serije M line, koji označava velik korak u evoluciji, ali uz očuvanje identiteta koji je definirao pola stoljeća uspjeha. Maiora M|36 je savršen spoj inovacije i tradicije, profinjena sinteza funkcionalnosti i svevremenske elegancije, jamac ekskluzivnog nautičkog iskustva bez kompromisa komfora.

Dugačka 37 metara i široka 8,20 metara, Maiora M|36 ima tri palube koje sve nude prostrane i profinjene životne prostore. Raspored predviđa pet kabina za smještaj do 12 gostiju, s vlasničkim apartmanom na glavnoj palubi i četiri apartmana za goste u potpalublju, a dizajneri su postigli savršenu ravnotežu između privatnosti i druženja.

Maiora presents the Maiora M|36, the first model of the new M line, marking a significant evolution for the shipyard while preserving the identity that has defined half a century of success. Maiora M|36 is the perfect fusion of innovation and tradition, a refined synthesis of functionality and timeless elegance, offering an exclusive and uncompromising onboard experience. With a length of 37 meters and a beam of 8.20 meters, the Maiora M|36 is spread across three decks, ensuring generous and sophisticated spaces.

YACHTING Flybridge snažnog karaktera Flybridge With a Bold Personality F E R R E T T I YA C H T S Ferretti Yachts 800, dugačak 24,47 m i širok 5,91 m, dizajniran je za neusporedivi komfor i vrhunski životni stil u plovidbi, uz vješto optimiziran prostor i precizno planirani raspored. Među njegovim inovativnim osobinama ističu se veliki prozori za nesmetan pogled na okolinu iz unutrašnjosti i dodatna klizna vrata na desnoj strani salona, odvojeni prostori za potpunu privatnost, te optimizacija vanjskih površina, pogotovo fly palube. Ta paluba površine punih 40 četvornih metara dodatno obogaćuje život u plovidbi. Ferretti Yachts 800 kombinira modernu estetiku s prepoznatljivim identitetom brenda, a jedna od karakterističnih osobina je postupno spuštanje linija flybridgea prema krmi, čime se prekida tradicija fly palube paralelne s trupom. Rezultat ovog malog dizajnerskog poteza je savršena ravnoteža između bezvremenske elegancije, dinamičnosti linija i impresivne prostranosti. Ferretti Yachts 800 može biti opremljen s dva motora MAN V12 od po 1550 KS u standardnoj verziji ili dva motora MAN V12 od po 1800 KS (opcija).

With a length overall of 24.47 m and a maximum beam of 5.91 m, Ferretti Yachts 800 is designed to offer the owner peerless comfort and a superior on-board lifestyle for a boat this size, thanks to optimised spaces and meticulous layout planning. The most innovative features include large windows for uninterrupted views of the surroundings from the interiors and an optional sliding door on the starboard side of the salon; perfectly separated spaces to ensure total privacy; and optimisation of the exterior surfaces and particularly the flybridge (a full 40 square meters), further enriching the on-board experience. Ferretti Yachts 800 combines a modern aesthetic with the brand’s signature identity. One of the characteristic features of this model is in fact the gradual slope of the flybridge’s lines down towards the stern, breaking with the tradition that they are parallel to the hull. The result is a perfect balance between timeless elegance, dynamism and impressive volume. Ferretti Yachts 800 can be powered by two 1,550 hp MAN V12 engines in the standard version or two 1,800 hp MAN V12 engines in the optional version.

Buduća generacija modela Manhattan 68 Next Generation Manhattan 68 SUNSEEKER

Novi Manhattan 68 krasi profinjeniji, dinamičniji profil koji privlači pogled i naglašava njegove moćne dimenzije, a njegova redizajnirana fly paluba postavlja nove standarde za život na otvorenom. Više naslonjača, fleksibilniji raspored i ergonomska komandna konzola s vrhunskom tehnologijom čine ovaj prostor ugodnim mjestom pod suncem ili zvijezdama. Krmeni kokpit je pomno redizajniran za još više funkcionalnosti i privatnosti. Novi Manhattan 68 dostupan je s nekoliko verzija rasporeda: četiri kabine s privatnim stubištem koje vodi do vlasničke kabine pune širine u sredini trupa; s jednim stubištem do svih kabina, što omogućava izvedbu salona sa dva naslonjača jedna preko puta drugoga; s tri kabine i s većim vratima vlasničke kabine koja ima i privatni ured, te četiri kabine od kojih jedna ima ležajeve na kat. Sunseeker je također najavio svoje planove odjela za superjahte. Odvažna nova serija modela duljina između 100 i 140 stopa donosi modele 120 Yacht, 135 Yacht i Ocean 460. Ova jedinstvena serija nudi vlasnicima neusporedivu fleksibilnost u dizajnu i rasporedu, dopuštajući im da svoje jahte prilagode svojim jedinstvenim željama.

The new Manhattan 68 (2025) now boasts a sleeker, more dynamic profile, while the redesigned flybridge sets new standards for open-air living. Featuring a larger, more versatile seating arrangement and an ergonomic console with cutting-edge technology, this space invites unforgettable experiences under the sun or stars. The aft cockpit has been meticulously redesigned to offer more functionality and seclusion. The yacht can have a 4-cabin layout with a private staircase leading to the owner’s midships full-beam cabin. Alternatively, the Manhattan 68 can be configured with a single staircase to all cabins, creating space for an opposing seating group in the main saloon. This layout offers flexibility for a 3-cabin configuration with a grander entrance to the owner’s cabin, complete with an office, or it can include a 4th bunk cabin. Sunseeker also announced its plans for the future Superyacht Division. The bold new range of yachts spanning 100 to 140 feet is comprised of a 120 Yacht, a 135 Yacht and the Ocean 460. This distinctive series offers clients unparalleled flexibility in design and layout, allowing them to tailor their vessels to their unique preferences.

YACHTING Evolucija vrste Evolution of the Species I N V I C T U S YA C H T Sa 16,87 metara duljine i 5,04 metra širine, Invictus TT550 je novi najveći model serije TT. Obdaren jednakim temeljnim karakteristikama i inovacijama kao njegov prethodnik TT460, donosi potpuno nove pramčane i krmene vanjske prostore. Ova redizajnirana područja povećavaju iskoristivost prostora, a izvedena su na visokoj razini. Sklopive bočne terase nude osjećaj otvorenosti i povezanosti s okolinom, a kokpit je siguran i prostran. U potpalublju, dizajner Christian Grande je smjestio dvije kabine (vlasničku i VIP), a raspored je ostavljen na izbor vlasniku – vlasnička kabina može biti izvedena u pramcu ili u srednjem dijelu trupa. Invictus TT550 će pokretati par motora Volvo Penta IPS, do verzije IPS950.

At 16.87 meters in length and 5.04 meters in width, the Invictus TT550 becomes the new flagship of the TT range, maintaining the defining characteristics and innovations of the TT460, while integrating reimagined forward and aft exterior spaces.

YACHTING Jahta za sva osjetila A Yacht for All Senses FIM FIM predstavlja novu seriju, Contessa sport fly, koja donosi značajnu evoluciju. S modelima 560 Contessa i 640 Contessa, FIM ulazi u segment većih jahti, što je strateški potez za jačanje prisutnosti na međunarodnim tržištima s jedinstvenom, prepoznatljivom serijom flybridge modela. Najveći model serije, 640 Contessa, donosi tri ključna elementa – talijanski DNK nadograđen internacionalnom suradnjom u dizajnu, performansama i inovacijama. Vanjske linije novog modela su dinamične i elegantne, s nizom zgodnih detalja. Duboki trup, obrisi kao oblikovani vjetrom i prepoznatljiva, prostrana krma odražavaju savršeno preciznu majstorsku izradu.

Besprijekorno integrirana sport fly paluba nudi svestran prostor sa sunčalištem i povišeno upravljačko mjesto koje se može pretvoriti u salon. FIM 640 Contessa ima prostran i funkcionalan raspored s tri kabine i tri kupaonice, uključujući vlasnički apartman smješten u sredini trupa. Trenutno u posljednjoj fazi razvoja, model 640 Contessa trebao bi biti predstavljen u jesen 2026.

FIM unveiled the new Contessa sport fly Series, marking a significant evolution for the shipyard. With the 560 Contessa and 640 Contessa sport fly yachts, FIM enters the larger yacht segment, a strategic move to strengthen its presence in international markets with a unique and recognizable Fly Bridge lineup. The 640 Contessa flagship embodies three core elements: Italian DNA complemented by international design collaboration, performance, and innovation. The yacht’s exterior features dynamic yet elegant lines and details. The deep hull moldings, wind-sculpted contours, and distinctive, expansive stern reflect meticulous craftsmanship. The seamlessly integrated, sporty flybridge offers versatile spaces, including a sun deck and a raised helm station convertible into a lounge. The 640 Contessa has a spacious and functional layout with three cabins and three bathrooms, including a centrally located master suite. Currently in advanced development, the 640 Contessa is scheduled for launch in autumn 2026.

Preoblikovanje koncepta flybridgea Reinventing the Flybridge Concept CRANCHI Dinamičan dizajn i otvoren raspored daju novom Cranchi Sessantasette 67 Corsa sposobnost da preobrazi iskustvo plovidbe, kombinirajući sportski duh s elegancijom u savršenoj ravnoteži.

Sportski dizajn modela temelji se na odrješitim linijama nadgrađa i upadljivim crvenim detaljima.

Siva tikovina lijepo se slaže s presvlakama namještaja na palubi, nudeći zanimljiv kontrast između okomitih površina presvučenih crnom kožom i svijetle tkanine na vodoravnim površinama. Fly

paluba, kompaktna i bez t-krovića, poboljšava aerodinamični profil jahte i nudi prostran vanjski prostor sa sunčalištem, salonom i ergonomski dizajniranim upravljačkim mjestom. Prostrana, savršeno integrirana kuhinja u srcu unutrašnjosti diskretno je povezana s unutarnjim salonom, kao malo privatno utočište za kuhare.

U potpalublju, vlasnički apartman pune širine je remek-djelo prostranosti i dizajna, s kupaonicom s mutnim staklom koje naglašava dojam otvorenosti.

Featuring a dynamic design and open, airy layout, the new Cranchi Sessantasette 67 Corsa transforms the on-board experience, combining sportiness with elegance in perfect balance. The sporty design is defined by the sharp lines of the superstructure and bold red accents. The grey-finished teak lines complement the deck upholstery, offering a striking contrast between the black leather-clad vertical surfaces and the light fabric of the horizontal ones. The flybridge, compact

and free of a t-top, enhances the yacht’s streamlined profile while revealing expansive spaces. It features a sundeck, a living area and an ergonomically designed helm station. The spacious, perfectly integrated galley at the heart of the vessel discreetly serves the indoor living area, providing a private retreat. On the lower deck, the full-beam master suite is a masterpiece of space and design, featuring a wall-mounted bathroom with smoked glass that enhances the sense of openness.

Spoj tradicije i inovacije Fusion of Heritage and Innovation R I VA

Nova Riva Iseo Super utjelovljuje savršenu kombinaciju tradicije i inovacije. Ovaj otmjeni runabout, dugačak 8,24 m i širok 2,5 m, ima prepoznatljive stilske osobine svojih prethodnika kojima je Riva zaradila svoj status legende – od prugastog mahagonija visokog sjaja tretiranog s 24 sloja laka, preko čeličnih detalja u bočnim rešetkama do akvamarin vodene linije – ali i prati nove trendove u nautici koji doprinose komforu u plovidbi i performansama. Prednje staklo je potpuno redizajnirano i sad je zaobljeno na specifičan način, kao i prednja stakla ostalih modela Rive, što modelu daje dinamičan izgled. Novi elementi dizajna i funkcionalnosti u kokpitu su potpuno redizajnirana blagovaonica, koja je veća od one na prethodnoj verziji modela zahvaljujući pametnoj optimizaciji prostora iza upravljačkog mjesta. Novi raspored omogućava smještanje elegantnog naslonjača u obliku slova U presvučenog vodootpornom tkaninom usklađenom s bojom trupa po odabiru svakog vlasnika. Još jedno inovativno rješenje na raspolaganju dostupno vlasnicima ovog fantastičnog malog runabouta je krov nadahnut automobilskim dizajnom koji jamči maksimalnu zaštitu trupa.

The new Riva Iseo Super embodies the perfect combination of heritage and innovation. An elegant 8.24 m runabout with a maximum beam of 2.5 m, the new Riva Iseo Super has the signature style features of the models to which the brand owes its iconic status – such as the high-gloss striped mahogany treated with 24 coats of varnish, the steel detailing in the form of the side grilles, and the aquamarine waterline – in perfect harmony with various new developments that improve both on-board liveability and cruising performance. The windscreen has been completely renewed and is now produced with the typical counter-curvature that has become one of the most recognisable features of Riva boats, giving the yacht a dynamic, spirited look. The new features in the cockpit are a completely redesigned dinette that’s larger than the previous version, thanks to clever optimisation of the space behind the helm station: the new design features an elegant U-shaped sofa, upholstered in waterproof Sky fabric coordinated with the hull colour chosen by the owner. Another innovative solution available to owners of this fantastic runabout is the boat cover based on automotive design to ensure maximum hull protection.

Sanjajte velike snove na Lagoonu 38 Dream Big Aboard the Lagoon 38 LAGO ON Potpuno novi Lagoon 38 nadograđuje se na ostavštinu omiljenog Lagoona 380, ali nudi više prostora, udobnosti i pametniji dizajn.

Ukrcavanje je pojednostavljeno preko produžene krme, čime je olakšan i pristup moru.

Optimizacijom trupa unutarnji volumen je znatno povećan, a veliki prozori i pogled od 360° u salonu stvaraju svijetlu, otvorenu atmosferu. U potpuno opremljenoj kuhinji, s velikim hladnjakom, osjećat ćete se kao kod kuće. Povezivanjem salona i kokpita otvaranjem kliznih vrata stvara se prostor za sjedenje do deset osoba. Uz self-tacking flok rukovanje i jedrenje je jednostavnije, čak i kad ste sami ili s malom posadom. Održivost je postala dio svakog Lagoona, pa je 38 izgrađen od smola biološkog porijekla, drva s FSC certifikatom, namještaja od recikliranih materijala, a standardna oprema uključuje i UVOJI sustav za pročišćavanje vode te opcionalne solarne panele. Nautika Centar Nava, Lagoonov pouzdani zastupnik u Hrvatskoj već 25 godina, sada nudi Lagoon 38 i u svojoj čarter floti. To je odličan način da ga isprobate prije kupnje i najbolja probna vožnja modela.

The all-new Lagoon 38 builds on the legacy of the beloved Lagoon 380 offering more space, smarter design, and enhanced comfort. Inspired by larger catamarans, it invites you to dream big. Boarding is simple with extended transoms that double as a fun, practical sea access. The optimized hull maximizes interior volume, while large windows and a 360° view create a bright, open atmosphere. A fully equipped galley, complete with a large refrigerator, ensures a homey feeling. Seamlessly connect the saloon and cockpit with fully retractable sliding doors. This creates seating for up to ten – perfect for dining, board games, or cocktails. The self-tacking jib allows easy handling, even short-handed. Sustainability is at the core of Lagoon, so the 38 is built with bio-sourced resins, FSC-certified wood, recycled upholstery, and the standard equipment includes a UVOJI water purification system, and optional solar panels. Nautika Centar Nava, Lagoon’s trusted dealer in Croatia for 25 years, now offers the Lagoon 38 in their charter fleet.

Nakon nedavne najave modela Dufour 48, Dufour najavljuje još jedan novi model: Dufour 54. Iako Dufour 48 utjelovljuje elemente novog kućnog stila, ide i dalje, nudeći neusporedivo iskustvo boravka na otvorenom i izniman komfor na svega 48 stopa. Kao i na Dufourovim jedrilicama, kokpit Dufour 48 je prostran i svestran, lako se prilagođava raznim aktivnostima – bilo da jedrite, opuštate se ili uživate u ručku negdje na sidru.

Dufour 54 donosi sve što je kuća naučila na prethodnim modelima, sve iskustvo i svu DNK kuće, i sve usklađeno s morima. Najzanimljivija vanjska inovacija je sky lounge, prostor za sunčanje na krovu s krutim lukom i krutim krovom (opcija). Taj vanjski životni prostor postaje iznimno udoban i dobro zaštićen u svim uvjetima. U unutrašnjosti, Dufour 54 nudi dvije verzije pramčane kabine: vlasničku kabinu ili vlasnički apartman, od kojih veća verzija ima krevet dostojan velikih jahti.

The Dufour 54 is the quintessence of Dufour’s know-how and its DNA, offering an experience of the sea in harmony with the ocean. A key exterior innovation is the sky lounge deck, a sunbathing area on the roof.

Vratite se moru Head to the Seaside M A R I N A P U N AT Dok su na kopnu vjesnici proljeća visibabe i prve laste, na moru su to kantice bijele boje i antivegetativnog premaza koje vlasnici plovila izvlače na znak prvih toplijih zraka sunca, kako bi pripremili svoje barke i brodice za novu sezonu. U Marini Punat vlasnici jahti osjećaju se kao doma tijekom cijele godine, jer su svi objekti otvoreni i sve usluge dostupne, pa sezona može započeti bilo kad tijekom godine. Početkom godine počinju i prve isporuke novih jahti, a prošireno područje Premium Plus vezova otvoreno je za smještaj plovila do 30 metara duljine na svoj stalni vez. Travanj i svibanj tradicionalno su idealni za škole jedrenja i prve obiteljske plovidbe u vrijeme blagdana. U restoranu Marina mjesec travanj posvećen je šparogama, a niz aromatičnih jela uparen s mirisnom žlahtinom oduševit će i zahtjevna nepca. Nakon napornog dana u škveru ili nakon dobrog jedrenja, nema boljega od dobre janjetine, a upravo je svibanj mjesec posvećen mladoj krčkoj janjetini. Naravno, za one kojima je još uvijek malo svježe za boravak na brodu, na raspolaganju su sobe i apartmani u Hotelu Kanajt 4*, kao i smještaj u bungalovima rasutim po masliniku oko hotela. Ne čekajte dolazak proljeća. Dođite i pronađite ga u Puntu!

While the mainland waits for snowdrops and swallows, the seaside has different messengers of spring. The buckets of white paint and antifouling are dragged out as the boatowners rush to prepare their yachts for the season. At Marina Punat, resident yachties feel at home because all the amenities are available throughout the year, and sailing season can start any day of the year. As new boats get delivered, the extended space for Premium Plus berths welcomes yachts up to 30m LOA to their permanent residence. April and May are traditionally perfect for sailing lessons and first family holidays aboard. A variety of wild asparagus dishes paired with local Žlahtina will thrill visitors at Restaurant Marina in April, and a hearty lamb dish is traditionally the best way to feed a hungry crew, particularly in May. Of course, for those who find it a bit chilly to stay aboard, there are rooms and suites at Hotel Kanajt 4*, as well as accommodation in lovely bungalows scattered in olive orchards around the Hotel. Don’t wait for spring, come and find it in Punat!

Kampanja nautičke izvrsnosti Campaign for Nautical Excellence ADRIA LIBAR

Na nedavno održanom panelu Ready. Train. Sail. na 32. Zagrebačkom sajmu nautike, u organizaciji Training centra Adria Libar, stručnjaci iz nautičkog sektora raspravljali su o potrebi provođenja kampanje koja će još snažnije promovirati sigurnost i izvrsnost u hrvatskom nautičkom turizmu. Zaključak panela bio je jasan: ono što Hrvatsku može dodatno istaknuti na međunarodnom tržištu kao jednu od najpoželjnijih nautičkih destinacija, uz prirodne ljepote i impresivnu flotu, jest visoka razina profesionalizma posada, što pokazuje standard sigurnosti i kvalitete usluge.

Obuka o spašavanju života na moru, zaštiti i postupanju u hitnim situacijama, pružanju pomoći, osobnoj sigurnosti i odgovornosti prema okolišu povećava sigurnost putnika i prati svjetske standarde. Edu74

PROLJEĆE SPRING 2025

cirana posada postaje zaštitni znak Hrvatske – brend – bili su složni u izlaganjima panelisti, koji su najavili i prijedloge prema ministarstvima o žurnoj potrebi za promjenama u nautici. Dok mnoge destinacije nude luksuz, Hrvatska može dodatno podići svoju konkurentsku prednost naglašavajući: visoku razinu sigurnosti, profesionalnost posade, ekološku održivost i zaštitu morskog okoliša, domaćinski prihvat marina, autentični doživljaj destinacija. Jedan od glavnih zaključaka panela bio je da ove prednosti trebaju biti sustavno i strateški promovirane kroz nacionalnu i inozemnu kampanju.

Ovakva inicijativa ne samo da bi podigla razinu svijesti u nautici, već bi promijenila sliku hrvatske nautike na svjetskom tržištu.

At the recently held Ready. Train.

Sail. panel organized by the Adria Libar Training Center at the 32nd Zagreb Boat Show, experts from the nautical sector met to discuss the need for a campaign promoting safety and excellence in Croatian nautical tourism.

The panelists reached clear conclusions: the very thing that can set Croatia apart on the international market as one of the most desirable nautical destinations, along natural beauty and an impressive charter fleet, is a high level of professionalism of the crews providing safety and quality of service. Training in saving lives at sea, safety and handling of emergency situations, providing assistance, personal safety and responsibility towards the environment all increase passenger safety, respecting international standards. Educated crews are becoming a trademark

of Croatian nautical tourism – a brand – the panelists all agreed on that. Alongside their many presentations, panelists also announced proposals to relevant departments on the urgent need for changes in nautical tourism.

While many destinations offer luxury, they say, Croatia could be even more competitive through highlighting: a high level of safety and professionalism of crews, environmental sustainability and protection of the marine environment, hospitality at marinas and authentic experiences. The panel reached a conclusion that all these advantages should be systematically and strategically promoted through national and international campaigns. Such initiatives would not only raise awareness in the industry, but also change the image of the Croatian nautical industry on the global market.

Oceanco unveiled its latest Beyond Custom design: 101m Lily. Designed by Vripack, Lily's asymmetrically sculpted exterior is inspired by the Water Lily and goes beyond anything seen on the water before.

Overlapping decks create an open-plan, split-level layout that maximizes space and flow throughout the yacht. The general arrangement has been configured to provide intimate spaces to accommodate multiple groups of families and friends. The large leisure deck fetures an outdoor pool on the aft deck, as well as a gym, wellness area, watersports gallery, bar and dining space. Above, the split-level guest deck offers six guest cabins and an aft lounge with a balcony. The upper deck has three additional guest cabins, an open-plan cinema and a playroom accessible via a bridge. With the ability to switch between diesel and methanol, Lily can operate anywhere in the world without concerns over fuel logistics or supply uncertainties.

Benetti je riječi Oasis dao novo značenje nazvavši tako najuspješniju seriju jahti današnjice. Nakon svjetskog buma kompozitnih jahti od 40 i 34 metra, čiji je uspjeh premašio i najveće optimiste, Benetti je predstavio seriju čeličnih i aluminijskih jahti dužine od 50 metara s prepoznatljivim dizajnom krme koji nosi patentirani naziv Oasis Deck®, prenoseći time popularnost manjih modela u svijet megajahti. Nadolazeće modele također potpisuje britanski dizajnerski studio RWD, zbog čega dijele jednak vizualni potpis s prethodnicima.

Prvu iz ove serije, jahtu Iryna (koju smo vidjeli i u Hrvatskoj), upoznali smo na njezinoj prezentaciji tijekom Monaco Yacht Showa 2022. Iduće godine predstavljena je jahta Alunya, a otad je broj prodanih primjeraka serije strelovito porastao. Ovaj put predstavljamo najnoviju jahtu serije, impresivnu Asani, dobitnicu nagrade RINA-e za izvrsnost u dizajnu jahti na Monaco Yacht Showu 2024. Zanimljivo, zahvaljujući naprednim tehnologijama gradnje, za jahte ove serije Benetti jamči oko 30 posto bržu isporuku od standardne. Također je posebno važno spomenuti da ovaj model ima više vanjskog nego unutarnjeg pro-

Benetti gave the new meaning to the word Oasis by creating the most successful series of yachts of today. After world boom of 40- and 34-meters composite yachts whose success exceeded the biggest optimists, Benetti presented a series of steel and aluminium yachts from 50 meter in length with recognizable stern, officially called the Oasis Deck®, thus transforming the popularity of smaller siblings to the world of mega-yachts. The succeeding models were also pencilled by the British RWD design studio, giving them a recognizable legacy.

I was lucky enough to see the first of the series, a yacht called Iryna (which we were also able to see in Croatia sometimes later), at her presentation during Monaco Yacht Show 2022.

The yacht Alunya was presented the following year and since then, the number of sold items of the 50-meter series has skyrocketed so we are extremely pleased to present the latest of the series in our magazine, the magnificent M/Y Asani. She was recognised

by RINA for excellence in yacht design at the Monaco Yacht Show 2024. It is interesting to mention that thanks to their advanced construction technologies, for the yachts in this family Benetti guarantee deliveries around 30 percent faster than the industry

Svaki detalj, od lijepog općeg dizajna do promišljenih završnih detalja, personaliziran je i odražava viziju vlasnika, koji je poželio ugodan, privlačan, miran ambijent bez granica između unutarnjeg i vanjskog prostora.

Profinjeni, elegantni dizajn uključuje prilagođene elemente integrirane u originalni izgled, poput privatne terase s vanjskim tušem, krmene platforme s krilima koja se otvaraju za dodatni prostor i pripadajućeg bazena. Interijeri se neprimjetno spajaju s eksterijerom, a uređeni su u raskošnim materijalima, namještajem po narudžbi i jedinstvenim umjetničkim djelima po izboru vlasnika jahte. Dok eksterijere potpisuje studio RWD, interijere je dizajnirao Benetti u suradnji s dizajnerskim studiom Bergman, koji je zajedno s vlasnikom i britanskim studiom LASS odabrao proizvođače, materijale, umjetnička djela, stil i završnu obradu.

Interijeri M/Y Asani prikazuju i slave radove renomiranih umjetnika, ali i radove umjetnika u usponu, a brojna umjetnička djela naručena su za jahtu, s temom prirode i oceana, dok su namještaj i dodaci po narudžbi i sami umjetnička djela. Što se tiče interijera, vlasnik je tražio sofisticiranu neutralnu podlogu, koju je za njega dizajnirao Benettijev kućni dizajner Mauro Izzo, dok je prostor uredio studio LASS. Za smještaj vlasnikove opsežne kolekcije predmeta, umjetničkih djela i namještaja, LASS je angažirao stručnjake nagrađivanog studija Bergman.

Unutrašnjost Asani krase djela umjetnika poput Ule Saniawe iz Unit 89, Roi James i Sougwen Chung, kao i zanimljiv stol za igre Jallu Ebénistes kuće Nusom i stolić za kavu Mattia Bonetti galerije David Gill. Salon izgleda i funkcionira kao besprijekoran nastavak Oasis Deck®, s površinama i namještajem u prirodnoj hrastovini i detaljima s efektom tamnog drva wenge, s elementima s organskim oblicima i teksturnim detaljima poput custom tepiha nadahnutoga valovima. Vlasnik je odabrao i najupečatljivije umjetničko djelo Elmgreen & Dragset, svojevrsno estetsko središte interijera koje prikazuje nebo u raznim nijansama plave osuto različitim oblicima oblaka. Goste dočekuje velika sofa na lijevoj strani,

standard. It is also particularly important to mention that this model features more exterior than interior guest space and Asani is a perfect example of such a philosophy of living at sea.

Every detail on board – from beautiful design statements to thoughtful finishing touches – has been personalised to reflect the owner’s vision for an inviting, homely and zen-like ambiance that breaks boundaries between the indoors and outdoors. Her sophisticated and elegant design incorporates custom features integrated into the model’s original layout, such as the private terrace with an outdoor shower and the stern platform with wings that open out for extra space and a pool. The interiors flow seamlessly from the exteriors and are adorned with opulent materials, bespoke furnishings and unique art chosen personally by M/Y Asani’s owner. While exterior styling is by RWD the interiors are done by Benetti in collaboration with Bergman Design House, who alongside the owner and UK based LASS Studio selected the suppliers and materials and curated the artwork, styling and finishes.

M/Y Asani’s interiors showcase and celebrate the work of both renowned artists and rising stars, numerous pieces of art were commissioned to reflect the themes of nature and the ocean, while bespoke furnishings and accessories were sourced that are pieces of art themselves.

Yacht is also the first unit in the B.Now 50M line to feature a revisiting of the Main Salon with generous spaces for entertaining guests. For the interiors, M/Y Asani’s owner asked for a sophisticated neutral base, designed by Benetti in-house interior designer Mauro Izzo, and chose LASS Studio to refine the spaces. To help curate exceptional collection of objects, artworks and furniture, LASS Studio enlisted the expertise of the award-winning team at Bergman Design House.

R EV IEW Azimut je u 2024. godini predstavio čak dva modela svoje nove Seadeck linije. Nakon odlično prihvaćenog Seadecka 6, predstavljenog početkom prošle godine, kod kojega je paket baterija služio kako bi jahti omogućio osmosatnu autonomiju bez paljenja generatora na sidru, Seadeck 7, koji smo imali priliku testirati na nautičkom sajmu u Genovi, prva je serijski proizvedena jahta s hibridnim pogonom. Ovakav pogon kod jahte trebao bi pružiti nižu potrošnju, niže emisije i mogućnost plovidbe u tišini.

Vizualno Seadeck 7, čiji vanjski dizajn potpisuje Alberto Mancini, zadržava sve estetske karakteristike svoga manjeg brata, s glatkim zaobljenim linijama svake površine, skoro ravnim pramcem, te prominentnom crnom linijom uzduž trupa, u kojoj se skriva i otvor u razmi broda. Elegantno nadgrađe sastoji se od crnih staklenih površina koje tvore prozore salona te srebrnog krova nadgrađa koji se nastavlja i prema krmi pokrivajući dobar dio krmene površine, dok se na njegovu vrhu skrio sport bridge prepoznatljiv tek po niskom vjetrobranskom staklu, koje okružuje čitavu njegovu površinu, te maleni jarbol za radar.

Kao i kod Seadecka 6, bočni profil jahte, počevši od kraja nadgrađa, počinje polagano spuštanje prema krmi koja završava prostranom krmenom platformom, dok se bočne stranice trupa na glavnoj palubi otvaraju bočno kako bi se dobio maksimalni prostor za boravak na otvorenom. Spomenuta krmena platforma je uistinu velika, a otprilike polovica njezine površine pri vrhu se po vodilicama koso spušta u more, te ispod otkriva stube koje omogućuju lagano korištenje kada je platforma zaronjena. Četiri stube poviše nalazi se glavna paluba, što pruža osjećaj prave jahte budući da je krmeni prostor za boravak odvojen od platforme i elegantnom staklenom ogradom. Tu se nalazi prostrano i visoko krmeno sunčalište s pogledom prema krmi

In 2024, Azimut debuted two models in their new Seadeck line. Following the well-received Seadeck 6 which debuted early last year, with a battery pack guaranteeing an eighthour autonomy without turning on the generator, the new Seadeck 7, which we had the opportunity to test in Genoa, is the first serial production yacht equipped with a hybrid drive.

This type of drive is expected to lower fuel consumption, lower emissions and allow silent navigation.

Azimut Seadeck 7 was designed by Alberto Mancini and retains all the aesthetic features of her smaller sister, with smooth, rounded lines on every surface, an almost flat bow, and a prominent black line along the hull which also hides the opening in the middle of the ship. The elegant superstructure boasts black glazing surrounding the salon, and the silver roof of the superstructure continues towards the aft, covering a good part of the aft area. Above, the sport bridge hidden from view is only visible its bow, where the low windshield stretches all around it and a small radar mast stands out.

The new model follows the same exterior aesthetic as Seadeck 6, with the profile descending from the end of the superstructure towards the aft, which ends with a spacious aft. The sides of the hull on the main deck open sideways to provide maximum space for outdoor living. The aft platform is really spacious, and about half of its surface descends toward the water, revealing stairs below that allow for easy use when the platform is submerged. Four steps up, the main deck gives the feeling of a real yacht, with the aft salon separated from the platform by an elegant glass railing. There is a spacious and high aft sunbed with a view aft, as large as an open-air double bed. Both starboard and port, there are

kao poveći bračni krevet na otvorenom.

Lijevo i desno su otvorive bočne stranice trupa koje dosta povećavaju ukupni prostor krmenog dijela, a naprijed, naslonjena na krmeno sunčalište i natkrivena s produženim krovom nadgrađa, je sofa s pripadajućim rasklopivim vanjskim stolom za objedovanje.

Prostrana krmena vrata salona mogu se potpuno sklopiti na desnu stranu, čime salon postaje dio vanjštine ove jahte, pogotovo ako još otvorimo i staklenu stijenku na lijevoj strani salona.

Uređen u svijetlim tonovima, salon je zamišljen kao mjesto za opuštanje na prostranoj sofi u obliku slova L smještenoj na desnoj strani, uz koju se nalazi i rasklopivi stol s promjenjivom visinom koji može postati niski stolić za kavu ili unutrašnji stol za objedovanje, s dostatnim sjedištem za dvoje na malenoj sofi u sredini salona.

U prednjem dijelu unutrašnjosti nadgrađa, koje je za jednu stubu povišeno od čitave palube, smjestilo se stubište koje vodi u kabine u unutrašnjosti trupa, a potom kuhinja i unutrašnje upravljačko mjesto. Kuhinju karakterizira minimalistički dizajn s električnim kuhalom i dvojnim sudoperom integriranim u tamnu radnu plohu, koja se nastavlja do upravljačkog mjesta smještenog na desnoj strani. Opremljeno s dva sjedišta, unutrašnje upravljačko mjesto

hull openings, which significantly increase the total space of the aft salon, while forward, leaning against the aft sundeck and protected by an extended roof of the superstructure, there is a sofa with an accompanying folding outdoor dining table.

The spacious aft saloon door can be folded to the right to disappear, connecting the indoor salon part to the exterior, especially with the open glass wall on the left side of the salon.

Furnished in light colors, the salon is designed for relaxation, with a large L-shaped sofa starboard, a folding table with variable height that can turn into a low coffee table or a tall dining table, as well as sufficient seating for two more on a small sofa in the middle of the salon.

Forward inside the superstructure, in a space one step above the main deck interior begins the staircase leading to the cabins below, right next to the galley and the command post.

The galley is minimalist in design, with an electric cooker and a double sink integrated into a dark worktop, which extends all the way to the command console starboard. With two seats, the command post offers good visibility forward, and all instruments are placed on a compact dashboard, with two Garmin multifunction displays, PROLJEĆE SPRING 2025

Samo upravljačko mjesto ima vlastita vrata koja vode na glavnu palubu.

Pramac je rezerviran za još jedno prostrano sunčalište, smješteno ispred vjetrobranskog stakla, i ulaz u kabinu za posadu s dva odvojena kreveta i svojom kupaonicom, dok se na desnom bočnom prolazu, usječene u nadgrađe, nalaze stube koje vode na sport bridge. Iako kompaktan, s prostranom sofom u obliku slova U i dva sjedišta upravljačkog mjesta, ovaj sport bridge ima dovoljno mjesta da se na njemu smjeste svi gosti broda i uživaju u odličnom pogledu koji pruža.

Nazad u salonu polukružno stubište nas vodi u hodnik koji spaja sve četiri kabine: VIP kabinu u pramcu, s prostranim dijagonalno postavljenim bračnim krevetom, vrlo prostranu vlasničku kabinu smještenu na sredini trupa, kod koje je krevet uzglavljem postavljen uz desnu stranu trupa, te dvije gostinske kabine, jednu s bračnim krevetom i jednu s krevetima na kat. Sve kabine, osim gostinske s krevetima na kat, dolaze sa svojim kupaonicama, a uređenje kabina prati svijetlo uređenje salona, dok su kupaonice, kao i hodnik koji spaja kabine, uređene u elegantnom venge drvu.

Ipak, za pravi dojam inovativnosti

ove jahte potrebno je isploviti s njom. Pri manevriranju na sajmu koristili smo samo dva električna motora od 160 kW koje pokreće baterija od 392 kW, dok su dva glavna motora Volvo Penta IPS 1350 od po 1000 KS bili samo upaljeni i postavljeni u Hybrid Standard način rada, pri čemu su gotovo nečujni, a počinju pokretati brod dodavanjem više gasa. Seadeck 7 može se još koristiti u potpuno električnom modu, pri čemu je maksimalna brzina oko 12 čvorova, a pri sedam čvorova ima domet od 28 milja. Tu je još i Hybrid Boost, pri čemu električni motori asistiraju pri ubrzanju i pokretanju, te Cross-Over način rada, pri kojem jedan motor pomoću drugog električnog pokreće oba IPS pogona za maksimalnu učinkovitost i snižene emisije.

Na testu pri plovidbi dizelskim motorima postigli smo maksimalnu brzinu od 28 čvorova s 12 ljudi na brodu, pri čemu je potrošnja bila oko 349 litara na sat pri 2400 okretaja u minuti, dok je optimalna brzina krstarenja bila oko 21 čvor, uz potrošnju od 224 litre na sat, a za dugo krstarenje pri 11 čvorova potrošnja se spušta na samo 60 litara na sat. U okretima Seadeck 7 se tek blago naginje, a trup vrlo ugodno probija valove bez velikih trzaja. Seadeck 7 je idealna jahta za vlasnika koji cijeni održivost i inovaciju, ali ne želi žrtvovati luksuz i udobnost. Ova jahta je savršena za ekološki osviještenog vlasnika koji traži vrhunski doživljaj plovidbe.

Volvo throttles and IPS joystick, and a sporty leather-covered steering wheel. The command post is served by a dedicated door leading to the main deck.

On the bow, another spacious sundeck is placed right in front of the windshield, as is the entrance to the crew cabin with two single beds and a private bathroom.

Starboard, the side passage built into the superstructure leads to the stairs connecting the main deck with the sports bridge. Although compact, with a spacious U-shaped sofa and two seats serving the command post, this sports bridge has enough space to accommodate all the guests and offers spectacular view.

Back in the main deck salon, a semicircular staircase leads to the corridor connecting all four cabins – the VIP cabin in the bow, with a spacious diagonally placed double bed, the very spacious master cabin placed mid-hull, with the bed placed along the starboard side of the hull, and two guest cabins, one with a double bed and one with bunk beds. All cabins, except the guest cabin with bunk beds, are served by private bathrooms, and furnished in the similar color palette as the salon. Bathrooms and the corridor connecting the cabins are decorated with elegant wenge wood.

All that said, to truly appreciate the level of innovation on this model, you have to see her in

navigation. On our test during the boat show, we used only the two 160 kW electric engines powered by a 392 kW battery to maneuver out of the port, while the two 1000 hp Volvo Penta IPS 1350 (main engines) were just turned on and set to Hybrid Standard mode, almost silent. Azimut Seadeck 7 is capable of cruising in all-electric mode, with a top speed of around 12 knots and a range of 28 miles at 7 knots. There is also Hybrid Boost, where the electric engines assist during acceleration and starting, and the CrossOver mode, where one engine uses the help of one electric engine to power IPS drives for maximum efficiency and reduced emissions.

With diesel engines, we achieved a maximum speed of 28 knots with 12 passengers aboard, with the consumption of roughly 349 liters per hour at 2400 rpm, while the optimal cruising speed was about 21 knots, with a consumption of 224 liters per hour. For longer cruising, ideal speed is 11 knots with the consumption of only 60 liters per hour. In turns, Azimut Seadeck 7 tilts barely noticeably, and her hull slices the waves very comfortably without sudden jolts.

The new Seadeck 7 is the ideal yacht for owners who value sustainability and innovation, but do not want to sacrifice luxury and comfort – for environmentally conscious owners looking for the ultimate cruising experience.

Talijansko brodogradilište Absolute već je dugi niz godina tržišni lider u regiji u segmentu navetta od 50 do 80 stopa, jahti s poludeplasmanskim trupovima, koje su svakog dana sve popularnije, pogotovo u čarteru i kod vlasnika koji žele što veću autonomiju.

Absolute je gamu Navetta odlučio proširiti s još jednim modelom – Navetta 70, koji je premijeru imao na Cannes Yachting Festivalu u rujnu prošle godine. Navetta 70 predstavlja sam vrh ponude, pokrivajući segment manjih jahti. Estetski, vidljivo je da je Absolute uložio mnogo pažnje u to da svi njihovi modeli budu potpuno usklađeni, tako da je nemoguće pogriješiti o kojem je brodogradilištu riječ.

Ovaj model ima visoki trup koji se čini kao da postaje sve viši prema pramcu, završavajući s pramcem koji se sužuje prema samoj vodenoj liniji kako bi se osigurao ekonomičan dizajn trupa. Na trupu su prepoznatljivi veliki romboidni bočni prozori na sredini trupa i na pramcu, a tu su i veliki otvori u razmi broda, koji cijelom modelu daju nešto sportskiji izgled od prethodnih modela. Nadgrađe je čitavom dužinom okruženo zatamnjenim staklenim površinama, koje na pramcu završavaju s prepoznatljivim zaobljenim vjetrobranskim staklom. I na vrhu se nalazi prostrani flybridge natkriven s velikim hard-topom koji natkriva cijeli prednji dio istoga.

U jahtu ulazimo preko prostrane krmene platforme koja ujedno služi i kao mjesto za tender budući da se središnji dio hidraulički spušta u more, a na krmi iza tamnog zatamnjenog stakla je ulaz u skipersku kabinu s dva odvojena kreveta. Bočne stube smještene su uz prepoznatljive Absoluteove završetke bočnih stranica prekrivene plavom rebrastom plastikom. Uz staklenu stijenku, koja čini krmenu ogradu u sredini na krmenom prostoru, smjestio se rasklopivi stol s obje strane okružen sofama.

Italian builder Absolute have been the regional market leader for many years, especially in the segment of navetta ranging from 50 to 80 feet.

This semi-displacement hull type has been getting more popular for a while now, and is especially sought after in, and with owners who want as big a range as possible.

Absolute have decided to expand their Navetta range with another model – the Navetta 70, which debuted at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September last year. The new Navetta 70 is at the very top of her range, and appealing to smaller yacht aficionados. As for her aesthetic, it's obvious that Absolute designers have done everything possible to make sure all their models are in sync, and their creative signature is obvious to all who know what they’re looking at.

The new model has a tall hull that appears to get taller towards the bow and ends with a bow that tapers towards the waterline, giving it a very ergonomic design. Mid-hull there and on the bow are the signature large rhomboid windows, as well as air vents, which give the model a slightly sportier look than graced the previous models. The entire superstructure is glazed by tinted glazing that ends at the bow, with the recognizable curved windshield. The highest deck is a spacious flybridge, protected by a large hardtop that covers the entire bow.

First thing aft is the spacious swimming platform that doubles as a parking space for the tender, with a hydraulic lowering system.

There, hidden by dark tinted glass, is the entrance to the skipper's cabin, with two separate beds, as well as steps, located next to Absolute’s distinctive side panel ends, covered with ribbed blue plastic.

Beside to the glazed wall that serves as protection in the middle of the aft area there is a folding table, with sofas on both sides. Next,

Uz krmeni ulaz u salon na desnoj strani nalazi se krmeni vanjski bar, a na lijevoj je stubište koje vodi na prostrani flybridge koji se svojom površinom proteže na više od polovice ukupne dužine jahte. Njegov prostrani krmeni dio ostavljen je prazan za postavljanje pomičnih ležaljki ili klupa. Na desnoj strani je jedan maleni stol uz sofu, dok se na prednjem dijelu koji je natkriven hard-topom nalazi stol za objedovanje za šest osoba, dok je na lijevoj strani prostrana vanjska kuhinja kod koje vlasnik može birati između zatvorenije verzije u obliku sova U ili linearne kuhinje.

Na samom pramčanom dijelu u sredini nalazi se komandno mjesto s jednim sjedištem, koje pruže odličan pogled prema naprijed, a sa strana je okruženo sofama s kojih i gosti mogu uživati u kapetanskom pogledu. Prostor na pramcu još je jedno mjesto za boravak na otvorenom, a sastoji se od polukružne sofe s pogledom prema vrhu pramca te pripadajućeg stolića i velikog sunčališta koje se na palubi ističe kao zaseban otok. Do pramca se dolazi preko lijepih bočnih prostora, a sam pramčani prostor povišen je za tri stube od glavne palube.

Koliko god su vanjski dijelovi broda zanimljivi, unutrašnjost je, počevši od salona, uistinu impresivna. Uređenje u svijetlom drvu, oblim rubovima svake površine, bijelim stropovima, bijelim površinama kuhinje i svijetlim tkaninama na sofama tvori ugodno futurističko uređenje. Salon zapo-

the door leading to the salon is adjacent to the bar starboard, while port there is the staircase leading to the spacious fly bridge which stretches over half the total length of the yacht. Its spacious aft section is left empty for freestanding deckchairs or benches. On the right side there are a sofa and a small table, while the bow is protected by hard-top and serves as an al fresco dining room seating six. On the left side there is a spacious outdoor kitchen, available with appliances arranged in a U-shape, or in a linear manner.

Main deck bow hosts the bridge, with one seat enjoying excellent visibility, surrounded by sofas for those who wish to share the view with the skipper. Right in front of it, there is a C-shaped sofa enjoying the view towards the top of the bow, a coffee table and a large sunbathing area that stands out on the deck as a separate island. The bow is easily reached via large and safe side passages, and the bow is elevated by three steps from the main deck.

As interesting as the exterior is, the interior, starting with the salon, is truly impressive. Light wood, rounded edges of every surface, white ceilings, white kitchen and light fabrics on the sofas all contribute to creating a pleasantly futuristic space. Near the entrance, there is a semicircular galley on the left, and a large dining table on the right. In the middle of

R EV IEW činje s polukružnom kuhinjom na lijevoj strani te prostranim stolom za objedovanje na desnoj strani. Na sredini salona na desnoj strani nalaze se dvije sofe postavljene kao slovo L te maleni stolić za kavu u sredini.

Desno od ovog prostora nalazi se glavno stubište broda koje prema dolje vodi u vlasničku kabinu u pramcu te niže u kabine u trupu, a prema gore do unutrašnjeg upravljačkog mjesta koje je tek nekoliko stuba povišeno od salona i od njega odvojeno stijenkom od drvenih stupića kako bi se održala komunikacija sa salonom. Ovo upravljačko mjesto sastoji se od dva sjedišta, centralnog upravljača te čak četiri velika Garminova touchscreen multifunkcijska displeja i još jednog malog preko kojeg možete pratiti stanje rada motora, čime možemo reći da ovaj brod ima ono što se u zrakoplovstvu naziva glass cockpit.

Prostrana vlasnička kabina smještena je u međupalubi u pramcu, što joj daje prostranost. Bračni krevet uzglavljem je okrenut prema krmi pa ima lijep pogled iz kreveta prema pučini kroz prostrane bočne prozore, uz koje se nalaze komode, a uz lijevu stranu je stolić za šminkanje. Kupaonica smještena u vrhu pramca opremljena je s WC-om, dva umivaonika i prostranom tuš-kabinom. Niže u trupu su se smjestile kabine za goste, dvije kabine s po dva pojedinačna kreveta koje dijele jednu kupaonicu te VIP kabina, smještena u sredini trupa veličinom i luksuzom tek malo iza vlasničke. VIP kabina ima prostrani krevet, radni stol te neobičnu kupaonicu koja otvaranjem prostranih kliznih vrata može postati dio kabine. Uz sve kabine treba dodati i prostrani ormar i spremište u pramcu broda ispod vlasničke kabine te hladnjak za vina.

Navetta 70 opravdava ime i u plovidbi – stabilnošću, lijepim probijanjem valova i minimalnim naginjanjem u okretima, tako da je kretanje po brodu sasvim ugodno čak i u punoj brzini. Na testu s čak 13 osoba na brodu te polovično punim tankovima goriva i 2/3 punim tankovima vode, Navetta 70 postigla je maksimalnu brzinu od 27,5 čvorova pri 2450 okretaja, uz potrošnju od 380 litara na sat. Optimalna brzina krstarenja postignuta na testu iznosi 15,5 čvorova s potrošnjom od 189 litara na sat, odnosno osam čvorova za maksimalni domet, pri čemu motori, dvije Volvo Pente D13-IPS1350, svaka od po 1000 konjskih snaga, troše samo 39 litara na sat. S novom Navettom 70 Apsolute je apsolutno doveo formulu navette do perfekcije u svojoj klasi, što je čini popularnim modelom za čarter, ali i za privatne vlasnike.

the salon on the right side, there are two sofas joined to form a large letter L and one small coffee table between them. To the right of this space, the main staircase leads below deck, to the master cabin in the bow and to the guest cabins in the hull, or up to the bridge. The command post is elevated, few steps higher than the salon and separated from a wooden element that still allows communication with the salon.

The command console is served by two seats, and hosts a centrally placed steering wheel and as many as four large touchscreen multifunction Garmin displays. The fifth display monitors the engines, and thus, we can say that this boat has what is called a glass cockpit in aviation.

The spacious master cabin can be found mid-deck in the bow, it has a double bad looking toward the aft and enjoying a nice view towards the open sea through the spacious side windows. The cabin is furnished with a chest of drawers, as well as a dressing table on the left side. The private bathroom located in the very bow, and has a toilet, two sinks and a spacious shower cabin. Lower below deck, there are guest cabins; two singles sharing a bathroom, and a VIP cabin, in the very middle of the hull, only slightly behind the master in terms of size and luxury. The VIP cabin has a spacious bed, a desk and an interestingly designed bathroom only separated from the cabin by large sliding doors. In addition to all cabins, there is enough space on the new Navetta 70 for a spacious closet and storage room in the bow, below the master, as well as a wine refrigerator.

Abolsute Navetta 70 lives up to her name: it is stable, with minimal tilt in turns, smooth on waves, and it is a pure pleasure to walk around even at full speed. On our sea trial, the unit carried 13 passengers, half full fuel tanks and 2/3 full water tanks, and achieved a maximum speed of 27.5 knots at 2450 revolutions and a consumption of 380 liters per hour. The optimal cruising speed achieved was 15.5 knots with a consumption of 189 liters per hour, while recommended speed for achieving maximum range is 8 knots, with the two 1000hp Volvo Penta D13-IPS1350 engines consuming only 39 liters per hour. With the new Navetta 70, Absolute have absolutely perfected the navetta formula, and we can already tell this new model is looking at a bright future in her class, and popularity with owners buying for charter, as well as for personal use.

FERRETTI YACHTS 670

NA SAJMU U CANNESU PREMIJERU JE IMALO NOVO IZDANJE MODELA FERRETTI YACHTS 670, JEDNE OD NAJPOPULARNIJIH JAHTI TOGA TALIJANSKOG BRODOGRADITELJA. S VELIKIM ZANIMANJEM TESTIRALI SMO NOVI MODEL S OBZIROM NA IZNIMAN USPJEH PRODAJE PRETHODNOG IZDANJA

THE LATEST VERSION OF THE POPULAR FERRETTI YACHTS 670 – ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR MODELS OF HER MAKER – DEBUTED IN CANNES. WE TOOK IT OUT FOR A RIDE WITH LOTS OF EXPECTATIONS, BUT ALSO LOTS OF JOY, KNOWING HOW GREAT HER PREDECESSOR WAS

R EV IEW

Interijer je prostran i svjetao, s naglaskom na luksuzne materijale i detalje

The interior is spacious and bright, with an emphasis on luxurious materials and details

Ferretti Yachts 670 zadržao je najvažnije adute prijašnjeg modela i ponudio nešto novo i izuzetno što ga dodatno odvaja od konkurencije. Vanjski izgled karakterizira elegantan profil i prepoznatljive čiste linije. Povećanjem bočnih prozora i dodavanjem tvrdog krova na flybridge, koji se može otvarati na sredini, povećao se komfor na najgornjoj palubi te preglednost i osvjetljenje na glavnoj i na donjoj palubi broda.

Raspored na flybridgeu promijenjen je tako da sada imamo upravljačko mjesto na desnom boku, dok je stol sa sofom za sjedenje povećan i prebačen na suprotnu stranu. Za stolom se sada može komotno smjestiti deset osoba, dok se ormarić s barom, roštiljem i frižiderom smjestio odmah nasuprot, iza upravljačkog mjesta.

Na upravljačkom mjestu dominiraju dva multifunkcionalna Simradova ekrana, dok je ergonomija

The new Ferretti Yachts 670 keeps everything everyone loved about her predecessor, adding interesting new features that will surely set her apart. Her exterior lines are elegant and clean, with large side windows and a hard top on the fl y bridge. The hard top has a skylight, which allows natural light to seep inside and creates greater visibility.

The fl ybridge layout has been redesigned, with the command console starboard and a sofa plus table combo port. The table seats ten comfortably, and can be flanked by a bar, grill and fridge unit.

The command console is dominated by two multi-function Simrad screens and served by two excellently designed seats enjoying perfect visibility in maneuvering. The model has two sun pads, one aft and on the bow, both protected from wind

sjedenja poboljšana tako da je preglednost kod navigacije i pristajanja vrlo dobra. Sunčalište je sada smješteno na krmenom i prednjem dijelu flybridgea gdje je dobro zaštićeno od vjetra, tako da se može koristiti u plovidbi.

Na krmi broda dodana je veća hidraulična platforma koja sada može primiti gumenjak dužine do 4,30 metara.

Najveću promjenu u odnosu na prethodni model doživio je interijer, tako da se ulaskom u salon odmah primjećuje više svjetla i više prostora.

Glavna paluba podijeljena je u tri harmonične cjeline i na dvije razine: salon, blagovaonički stol s kuhinjom te upravljačko mjesto. Ovdje se Ferretti jako potrudio, kako izborom materijala, tako i pažnjom za svaki detalj koji model čine izuzetnim. Kuhinja je dobila više ormarića i frižider za vino, blagovaonički stol je povećan i lijepo oblikovan s dodatnim tabureom za sjedenje. Glavno upravljačko mjesto smješteno je na desnom boku i ima izuzetnu preglednost. Tri Garminova multifunkcionalna ekrana pružaju dovoljno mjesta kako bi mogli prikazati sve potrebne informacije, dok Zipwake i Seakeeper komande omogućavaju da podesimo najugodniji položaj broda pri svim brzinama.

Pramac broda rezerviran je za još jedan kokpit sa sjedećom garniturom, gdje možemo uživati u privatnosti i popodnevnim zalascima sunca ispijajući koktele s pogledom na pučinu. U usporedbi s prijašnjim modelom, ovaj prostor je dodatno povećan jer su istraživanja pokazala da vlasnici ovdje provode jako puno vremena dok je brod na sidru ili čak u marini. Bočni prolazi su široki i pružaju osjećaj sigurnosti kod polaska u plovidbi.

Testirani model imao je tri kabine s tri odvojene kupaonice i skipersku kabinu. Ferretti Yachts 670 može se naručiti i s rasporedom od četiri ka-

and fit to use in navigation. Aft, the large hydraulic platform can house a tender up to 4.3 meters.

The biggest change in comparison to the old model happened inside – the interior is spacier and lighter. The main deck is divided into three areas on two levels; the salon, the diner and the galley, and the command post. Ferretti did their absolute best here, choosing the best of everything in terms of fabrics, materials and details. The galley offers more storage, including a wine cabinet, and the dining table is larger and served by an additional seat. The command post is starboard, and enjoys excellent visibility. Three Garmin screens are large enough for every feature, while Zipwake and Seakeeper commands allow smooth sailing in almost all conditions.

On the main deck, the bow serves as a secondary cockpit, with a sofa ideal for sipping cocktails and enjoying the sunset. Compared to the version on the predecessor, this space is larger, as Ferretti concluded owners spend most of their time on the bow at anchor or in the marina. This space can be reached by wide and safe side passages, safe enough to use in navigation.

The unit we tested had three cabins and three heads, plus the skipper’s cabin. The model is also available with four cabins and four heads. The master cabin is placed centrally and is full-beam, with a large queen-size bed and a wardrobe worthy of a much larger yacht.

Large hull windows allow the eye to roam across the sea from the bed, or the sofa. The master cabin has a small office space enjoying lots of privacy, and the cabins – as well as all other living spaces

Kupaonica i zidni ormar zavidnih su dimenzija i pružaju osjećaj kao da se nalazimo na puno većem brodu. Veliki bočni prozori omogućavaju predivan pogled na morsku pučinu i iz prostranog kreveta i sa sjedeće garniture. Povišeni dio kabine uređen je kao ured s radnim stolom, gdje vlasnik može u privatnosti pisati e-mailove ili obavljati telefonske razgovore. Posebna pažnja posvećena je zvučnoj izolaciji kako bi vlasnik i gosti na brodu mogli spavati tijekom plovidbe ili dok rade generatori. VIP kabina s bračnim krevetom te vlastitom kupaonicom smještena je u pramčanom dijelu broda, dok se kabina za goste s kupaonicom nalazi na desnom boku te ima dva odvojena ležaja.

Sve kabine vrlo su prostrane i obasjane dnevnim svjetlom koje dopire kroz velike bočne prozore. Pogled na pučinu zagarantiran je sa svakog ležaja, dok visina u kabinama omogućava da se ugodno osjećaju i oni višega rasta.

Brzinu krstarenja od 24,4 čvora postigli smo pri potrošnji od 180 litara po motoru. Ubrzanje od 0 do 32 čvora Ferretti Yachts 670 postiže u 35 sekundi pri mirnom moru, što dovoljno govori o performansama ovog modela. Upravljivost broda je izvrsna kako pri niskim, tako i pri maksimalnim okretajima motora.

Prskanja mora nema pri okretima u punoj brzini ili pri prelasku preko valova koje nam je stvarao jutarnji povjetarac. Strojarnica nije doživjela većih promjena i u nju možemo pristupiti kroz otvor u kokpitu broda ili kroz skipersku kabinu, koja se nalazi tik uz strojarnicu u punoj širini broda te ima jedan ležaj i odvojenu kupaonicu.

Ferretti je za sada ponudio mogućnost biranja interijera u klasičnom stilu, koji smo imali na testnom modelu, ili u modernom stilu sa svjetlijim tonovima drva i presvlaka. Testirani model osvojio nas je elegancijom, inovativnim rješenjima u detaljima gdje ih nismo očekivali te odabirom materijala, čineći ovaj model potpuno novim i izuzetno privlačnim u odnosu na svoju konkurenciju.

All cabins are spacious and light, courtesy of those large windows, enjoying panoramic view of the surroundings and with adequate height to please even taller guests.

The model is powered by two 1000-hp MAN engines (standard), but the unit we tested in Cannes was equipped with 1200-hp engines. We reached the top speed of 32 knots at 2350 rpm, and with fuel consumption of 245 liters per engine. While cruising at 24.4 knots (cruising speed), fuel consumption dropped to 180 liters per engine, ad we went from 0 to 32 knots in 35 seconds, which tells you everything you really need to know. The unit was extremely calm both at low speed and at maximum rpm, with no spritz spoiling our fun in turns or on waves. The engine room hasn’t changed much from the previous version of this model and is still accessible via the hatch in the cockpit or through the skipper’s cabin. This cabin is engine room-adjacent, has one bed and a private head.

For now, Ferretti offer the model in two versions, classic (like the unit we tested) and modern, with lighter wood and fabrics. All in all, we love the new Ferretti 670. It’s an elegant, stylish and innovative yacht with unexpected details which all makes her not only fresh, but also very appealing standing next to any of her competitors.

Novi Sacs Strider 13 doživio je svoju premijeru na nautičkom sajmu u Cannesu prošlog rujna. Redizajn već uspješnog modela, koji je postavio standarde u segmentu maxi gumenjaka, brodogradilište Sacs Tecnorib povjerilo je Christianu Grandeu, koji je povećao dimenzije novog modela i unio niz inovacija, tako da s pravom možemo reći da se ovdje radi o potpuno novom gumenjaku koji će, kao i prethodnik, postaviti nove standarde u nautičkoj industriji.

Krenimo redom. Trup gumenjaka u potpunosti je izmijenjen i ujedinjuje performanse sportskog gumenjaka i komfor jahte na dužim putovanjima. Dužina preko svega novog modela povećana je za 12 cm, dok je širina povećana za impresivnih 50 cm u odnosu na prethodni model.

Iako većih dimenzija, Strider je zadržao niski profil i dobio još dinamičniji i sportskiji izgled. Nove dimenzije omogućile su smještanje tri pilotska sjedala na centralnoj konzoli iza upravljača, puno širi ulaz i stube u kabinu, dva stolića u kokpitu, široke bočne prolaze i više mjesta na krmenim i provenim sunčalištima. U kabini su sada dva odvojena bračna kreveta i odvojena kupaonica s tuš-kabinom, što model čini komfornijim i primamljivim za duži boravak na moru. Promjer tubusa povećan je s 55 cm na 73 cm, dok je broj komora povećan s osam na devet, što je model učinilo dodatno sigurnijim u plovidbi.

Testirani model pokretala su dva Volvo dizel motora D6 s po 400 konjskih snaga smještena ispod prostranih sunčališta na krmi broda. Putnu brzinu od 22 čvora postigli smo pri 2560 okretaja u minuti s potrošnjom od 71 litre na sat, dok smo maksimalna 44 čvora postigli pri 3580 okretaja u minuti. Pri testiranju ubrzanja Strider je izglisirao već nakon sedam sekundi bez puno naprezanja.

Na testu broda bilo je pet odraslih osoba te oko 800 litara goriva dok je stanje mora bilo umjereno valovito i zahtjevno za test. Usprkos vremenskim prilikama Strider 13 je položio test s odličnim uspjehom, jer koliko god smo se trudili 'trinaesticu' uhvatiti nespremnom, to nismo uspjeli. Svi okreti, sva ubrzanja ili usporavanja bila su bez prskanja mora, naginjanja ili proklizavanja trupa.

Robusno vjetrobransko staklo s tvrdim krovom pruža odličnu zaštitu od vjetra pri punoj brzini, sjedala su ergonomska, dok je buka motora umjerena, tako da se može međusobno pričati ili uživati u glazbi tijekom plovidbe. U vožnji krmom preglednost s povišenog upravljačkog mjesta je odlična, a brod odgovara izrazito precizno na komande. Pri naglom usporavanju krmeni val ne prelazi krmenu platformu, a gumenjak se odmah zaustavlja. Upravljačko mjesto smješteno je na centralnom mjestu te pruža odličnu preglednost i udobnost. Centralnom upravljačkom konzolom dominiraju dva Raymarine multifunkcionalna ekrana na dodir, na kojima su svi podaci o navigaciji, snimka krmene kamere ili podaci o radu motora. Komande motora, pramčanog propelera kao i svi prekidači prikladno su smješteni i lako dostupni skiperu iz sjedećeg ili stojećeg položaja.

Brodogradilište nudi i opciju s izvanbrodskim motorima, ali tada se gubi velika krmena platforma prekrivena tikovinom koja dolazi kod modela s unutrašnjim motorima. Prednji dio kabine promijenjen je i neodoljivo podsjeća na masku sportskog automobila, tim više što se sa svake strane nalaze LED svjetla koja osvjetljavaju bočne prolaze i pramčano sunčalište te povećavaju vidljivost u navigaciji. Kvaliteta materijala i završna obrada su na najvišem nivou, a posebna pažnja posvećena je detaljima. Brodogradilište nudi nekoliko paketa opreme kod narudžbe te niz dodatnih opcija koje omogućavaju personalizaciju Stridera 13.

Kupac može birati boju trupa, tikovine, gumenih tubusa, kabine, hard topa ili fuga na tikovini.

Povećane dimenzije novog Stridera 13 izvedene dinamičnim sportskim linijama koje prate jednako sportske i dinamične performanse garancija su da ćemo novu Sacs 'trinaesticu' viđati u različitima ulogama, bilo kao tender za superjahte, gumenjak za vikend-odmor ili kao plovilo za dnevne izlete i transfere vezan ispred vila i hotela na obali. U svakoj od tih uloga Strider 13 će se odlično snaći.

The new Sacs Strider 13 debuted at the Cannes Boat Show last September. The redesign of the already successful model, which set the bar for success in the maxi RIB segment, was entrusted to Christian Grande, who increased the dimensions of the new model and introduced a number of innovations. The changes are so many we can say this is a completely new RIB – and just like its predecessor, will set new standards in its segment.

So what’s so special about it? First, the hull has been completely changed, to combine the performance of a sports RIB with the comfort of a yacht fit for longer cruises. Length of the new model has been increased by 12 cm, while beam has grown by impressive 50 centimeters in comparison to the previous model. Despite its larger dimensions, the new Strider has retained the beloved low profile and can now boast an even more dynamic, sporty look. These new dimensions have allowed for the placement of three pilot seats at the command console, a much wider entrance and stairs to the cabin, placement of two tables in the cockpit, wide side passages and more space on the aft and forward sundecks. The cabin now has two separate double beds and a bathroom with a shower, which makes the model more comfortable and attractive for longer stays at sea. The diameter of the tubes has been increased from 55 cm to 73 cm, while the number of chambers has been increased from eight to nine, making the new model even safer in navigation.

The unit we tested was powered by two Volvo D6 diesel engines with 400 horsepower each, placed under the spacious stern sundeck. We achieved a cruising speed of 22 knots at 2560 rpm, with a consumption of 71 liters per hour, and our maximum speed was, while we achieved a maximum speed of 44 knots at 3580 rpm. During acceleration testing, the Strider planed after just seven seconds, effortlessly. Our unit carried five passengers and about 800 liters of fuel, while the sea conditions were moderately rough and moderately demanding. Despite the weather conditions, Strider 13 passed the test with flying colors, and no matter how hard we tried to catch it off guard, we couldn't. All turns, all acceleration or deceleration were executed without tilting, slipping or spraying.

The robust windshield and the adjacent hard top provide excellent protection from the wind at full speed, the seats are ergonomic, while the engine noise is mild you can talk to each other or enjoy music in navigation. While moving backwards, the skipper enjoys excellent visibility from the elevated steering position is excellent, and the RIB responds to the controls extremely precisely. In sudden decelration, the wave doesn’t flow over the aft platform, and the RIB stops promptly.

The command post is placed centrally and provides excellent visibility and comfort, and the central control console is dominated by two Raymarine multi-function touch screens displaying all the navigation data, stern camera footage or engine operation data. Engine controls, bow propeller controls and all other controls are conveniently placed and easily accessible to the skipper from both sitting or standing position.

The model can be powered by outboard engines, with the loss of the large teak-covered aft platform that comes as standard with inboard engines models. The front part of the cabin has been redesigned and now resembles the hood of a sports car, all the more so for the LED lights on each side that illuminate the side passages and the bow sundeck, as well as increase visibility in navigation. The quality of all used materials and finishing are at the highest level, and every details feels special. The model is available with several equipment packages, and with several additional customization options – for example, the owner gets to choose color of the hull, teak, rubber tubes, cabin, hard top or joinery.

The increased dimensions of the new Strider 13 and its dynamic, sporty lines paired with equally sporty and dynamic performances guarantee that the new Sacs 13 will be a popular choice, be it as a tender for superyachts, a weekend getaway boat, or a day trip companion – or moored in front of villas and hotels along the coast. We’re sure the new Strider 13 will excel in any and all of these roles.

TEXT Darko Šupuk PHOTOS MennYacht

MATJAŽ MURKO Slovenski poduzetnik koji je na čelu danas najveće regionalne tvrtke za prodaju jahti više od pola života je u nautici, s kojom je prošao lijepa i zahtjevna vremena, tijekom godina stvarajući i šireći raznovrsnu jahting ponudu za svoje klijente Slovenian entrepreneur is the leader of the largest yacht sales company in the region. More than half of his life in the industry, Murko has seen rough and calm seas, but never stopped creating, expanding and diversifying the MennYacht Group

MennYacht Group najveća je regionalna tvrtka za prodaju jahti, poslovno vezana uz talijansku grupaciju Ferretti, a njihov posao danas uz prodaju čini niz kompatibilnih djelatnosti. Najveći dio tvrtke namijenjen je tehničkoj podršci klijentima kroz jedinstvenu mrežu servisa na cijelom Jadranu. Tu su i usluge potpunog menadžmenta i čartera, te prodaja gumenjaka Technohull i Williams, čineći MennYacht zaokruženom jahting kompanijom. To odražava viziju njezina predsjednika Matjaža Murka, koji je od početaka na čelu tvrtke i koji je prošle godine proslavio dva velika jubileja – trideset godina MennYachta i svoj šezdeseti rođendan. Nema poznavatelja nautike koji na sajmovima nije sreo Matjaža, suprugu Darju, sina Žigu i njegov poveći tim suradnika, pa nismo mogli odabrati boljeg sugovornika za razgovor o nautici kakva je nekad bila, ali i kakva će biti u budućnosti.

GODINA 2024. BILA JE VELIKA GODINA ZA VAS, MENNYACHT JE PROSLAVIO 30 GODINA, A VI 60 GODINA. KAKO STE DOŠLI U KONTAKT S NAUTIKOM OPĆENITO? Još dok je moja supruga Darja radila u Kompasu, 1987. godine, imao sam obrt za čišćenje čarter jedrilica, jer je jedna flota bila u Portorožu. Znam puno stvari raditi, pa sam se bavio i animacijom i voditeljstvom. Na primjer, znalo je doći po tisuću ljudi na evente i događaje u Portorožu koje sam vodio i animirao goste. Danas također radim animaciju, ali za jahte kao ultimativne premium proizvode.

JE LI VAM DOSTA JAHTI? Niti blizu, ne možeš me zaustaviti, ja sam non-stop samo u tome.

MOŽETE LI KAZATI KAKO JE VAŠA TVRTKA ZAPOČELA, PRIJE TRI DESETLJEĆA? Počeli smo samo s Pershingom, 1994. Oni nisu bili niti u jednoj grupaciji, to je bila mala manufaktura gdje su radili 12 do 16 brodova godišnje, ali i neke mo-

Today, MennYacht Group is the largest regional yachting company, partner of the Italian Ferretti group, and active in more than just yacht sales.

Their largest division offers technical support and after sales to clients, with a unique service network branching throughout the Adriatic. They also have division specializing in charter and yacht management, and are dealers for Technohull and Williams RIBs. This well-rounded approach reflects the vision of ther CEO, Mr. Matjaž Murko, who has been leading the company since the beginning and who celebrated two major anniversaries last year – thirty years of MennYacht and his sixtieth birthday. There simply are no industry players who have not met Matjaž, his wife Darja, his son Žiga and their many employees on some of the yachting events. We are happy to share his vision of the past, present and future of yachting.

YOU HAD A BIG YEAR LAST YEAR: 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF MENNYACHT AND YOUR 60TH BIRTHDAY. HOW DID YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE YACHTING INDUSTRY? Back in 1987, when my wife Darja was still with Kompas, I had a charter boat cleaning service, because there was a fleet anchored in Portorož.

I have many skills, back then I also was the events industry; there were big events in Portorož, with up to a thousand guests and I would animate large crowds. I still do that today, but in person, in the ultimate luxury yacht sale setting.

HAVEN’T YOU HAD ENOUGH OF YACHTING? No, and I never will. I am unstoppable, I’m all in this.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR BEGINNINGS, MORE THAN THREE DECADES AGO. Our first client was Pershing, back in 1994. They were not a part of any group back then, they were just a small shipyard building between

dele od 60 i 70 stopa, što je bilo dosta veliko. Pershing je već tada imao model od 70 stopa s plinskom turbinom, što je bila ludnica. Kao i danas, Pershing je bio specijaliziran za Arnesone (površinski pogon) i to je bio naš najveći doživljaj. Kada smo došli na probnu vožnju, prvi put smo probali što to Arneson uopće jest, kada je krenula voda pozadi… Tada je Pershing 70 radio 50 čvorova s Caterpillarima od 1350 konja, to je bilo nevjerojatno. Tom prilikom nas je sačekao Tilli (Antonelli) koji je došao sa svojim Range Roverom u kojem je pušio i odveo nas u Pershingovu tvornicu, koja je bila jako lijepa, lijepo sređeni mali škver, sve je bilo moderno i uredno. Za nas je Pershing bio otkriće. Kada smo krenuli raditi s njima i zastupati njihov brend, svi su mislili da smo malo poremećeni, jer kada smo došli s novim brodom u marinu Portorož, mislili su da dolazi hidro gliser. Tada je brod od 40 stopa već bila jahta.

ZA MENNYACHT JE TO BIO POČETAK JEDNE USPJEŠNE VIZIJE? Iako je Pershing građen u Anconi, nije bilo ni jednog Pershinga u Jadranu.

Toliko smo htjeli cijelom svijetu pokazati taj predivan brend, da tko god je bio u Palmižani – došao je na naš brod (Pershing 60). Mislim da smo oprali 120 vinskih čaša u jednom danu koliko je ljudi bilo na brodu. Tada nije bilo ni sajma, ni eventa, ni ičega. Imali smo jednog zaposlenika koji je bio malo u uredu, malo na brodu, a ja sam bio u drugom biznisu i poznavao sam dobro područje srednje Europe, što je bilo dobro za razvoj prodaje. Danas ne bismo preživjeli da smo prodavali samo Pershing, pokazalo se krucijalno da je Pershing ušao u Ferretti grupaciju i da smo uz Ferretti dobili Rivu, Itamu, Wally i Custom Line .

JE LI VAM SADA LAKŠE KADA IMATE VELIKU STRUKTURU IZA SEBE? Situacija je zasigurno drukčija, ali to ne znači nužno da je lakša. Lijepo je vidjeti da možemo funkcionirati unutar velike, stabilne strukture, no put do toga nije bio bez izazova. Posebno pamtimo godine tijekom financijske krize 2009., kada smo imali veliki broj polovnih brodova na zalihama – tada je svaki poslovni potez zahtijevao iznimnu razboritost i snalažljivost.

IMATE LI OSJEĆAJ ZA GODINE KOJE DOLAZE? Jedino za što imam osjećaj jest onaj koji imam od prvog dana, a to je da će nautika rasti, da će se prodavati veliki, skupi i lijepi brodovi. Mi ne prodajemo jogurt, koji se prodaje kao roba široke potrošnje s oscilacijom od tri posto, jer nautika je osjetljiva, jedne godine možete prodati dvadeset brodova, a druge dva… Ipak posao raste, većina naših klijenata želi novi i veći brod, ali danas neki i s većih brodova prelaze na manje jer ne žele raditi s ljudima (posadama).

MOŽETE LI OSIGURATI I POSADE SVOJIM KLIJENTIMA? Mi imamo odjel crew managementa, koji vodi Tomaž Fakin, ali ono gdje smo stvarno jaki je 'after sales', što nas puno košta, jer sam od prvog dana ustanovio kakav može biti problem ako imaš brod, a nemaš dobru tehničku podršku. Od početka smo počeli razvijati servis te imamo izuzetno veliku i jaku ekipu koju vodi Črt Prinčič i odrađuje skoro pa sve poslove u garanciji, ali i kasnije jer su naši klijenti zadovoljni i žele da se brinemo o njihovu brodu.

Danas smo u stanju organizirati bilo kakve radove, ali i dalje se od servisa ne može baš zaraditi, usprkos tome što servis ima veliki promet. Nama je važno da naši klijenti imaju maksimalnu podršku.

12 and 16 units a year, but some of them between 60 and 70 feet, really big.

They had a gas turbine 70 feet model, crazy for that time. Even back then they built models using Arneson surface drive, and that’s what impressed us. Our first test ride was our first meeting with that type of drive and when the water surged behind us… Pershing 70 was capable of reaching 50 knots with 1350 hp, which was unbelievable. We were welcomed by Tilli (Antonelli) himself, who arrived in his Range Rover, cigarette in hand, and drove us to the yard himself. The production hall was beautiful, a perfect little shipyard; very modern, very tidy. What a discovery Pershing. When we started working with them as dealers, everyone around us thought we went crazy: when we arrived at the Portorož marina with a new yacht, they thought a hydrofoil was coming in.

THAT THE BEGINNING OF THE MENNYACHT? Although Pershing was built in Ancona, they were not represented by anyone in the Adriatic. We wanted to introduce this wonderful brand to the entire world, and we welcomed all curious guests while we were Palmižana on our boat (Pershing 60). I think we would wash 120 wine glasses daily, that’s how many interested visitors we had. Back then, there were no boat shows, no events, nothing. We had one employee who spent half of the time in the office, half of the time on our yacht. I was doing something else back then and was well acquainted with sales in Central Europe, which was good for business development. But we wouldn't still be around today if we still were only dealing only in Pershing: their entry into the Ferretti Group turned out to be crucial. After that, along with Ferretti, we got access to Riva, Itama, Wally and Custom Line.

IS IT EASIER NOW THAT YOU HAVE A LARGE STRUCTURE BEHIND YOU? The situation is certainly different, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's easier.

It's nice to see that we can do business within a large, stable structure, but our path was not without challenges. Especially bad were the years after the 2009 global financial crisis, when our used boat stock grew – back then every business move required exceptional prudence and resourcefulness.

CAN YOU SEE THE FUTURE FROM WHERE YOU’RE STANDING? I can still only see what I’ve been seeing since day one: the yachting industry will grow, as will the size of the yachts; we will sell more expensive and beautiful boats. We don’t sell yogurt – a consumer good with a three percent fluctuation. The yachting industry is so sensitive, one year you can sell twenty units, and the next year only two. Still, our business is growing, most of our clients want new and bigger boats, but we’ve also seen some switch from larger boats to smaller ones, because some don't want to work with people (crews).

CAN YOU ALSO PROVIDE CREWS FOR YOUR CLIENTS? We have a crew management department, led by Tomaž Fakin, but where we are really strong is after sales. This costs us a lot, but I’ve realized early on how problematic it can be to own a yacht, but have no technical support.

That’s why we started working on our services on day one, and now we have an extremely large and strong team led by Črt Prinčič that do almost everything in the warranty period, as well as later, as our clients are satis-

KOLIKO DANAS IMATE ZAPOSLENIKA? Nekada je sve prolazilo preko mene, a danas firma odrađuje veliki dio posla jer imamo deset prodajnih eksperata u timu na raznim tržištima, pa trideset ljudi u servisu, deset u uredu, marketingu, čarteru…, ima nas više od pedeset. ŠTO MENNYACHT ČEKA U BLISKOJ BUDUĆNOSTI? Kao onaj koji vodi MennYacht od prvog dana, mogu kazati kako mi ne prestajemo razvijati tvrtku u cijeloj regiji, posebice na Jadranu. Preselili smo jedan ured iz Kremika u marinu Mandalinu Šibenik, gdje sada osim servisa imamo i prodajni ured po visokim standardima grupe Ferretti.

U marini Dalmacija Sukošan otvaramo najbolji prodajni ured na Jadranu u zgradi recepcije i zapošljavamo dodatne radnike u servisu i after salesu. I u Splitu imamo novi servisni centar, koji vodi naš Jakov Dekovič, pa pojačavamo našeg Domagoja Tabaka koji vodi prodaju splitskog ogranka MennYachta. Naš partner i direktor MennYacht Hrvatske Janko Matušić priprema projekt u zaleđu Rijeke, točnije u industrijskoj zoni Mučići, gdje ćemo izgraditi veliku halu za servis i prodajni Technohull centar i time pojačati kapacitete skladištenja i servisa koje već imamo na Poljanama iznad Ičića. Imamo novoobnovljeni ured u marini Porto Montenegro u Crnoj Gori, koja postaje sve važnija destinacija na Jadranu, naročito za velike brodove. Čarter smo izuzetno dobro razradili, i taj dio vodi naša Eva Jeraša, a za nas je ta djelatnost iz godine u godinu značajno bolja. Krenuli smo razvijati i nuditi našim klijentima i yacht management. Tu djelatnost vodi Kristina Trobec Bukvič, koja se nedavno priključila našoj firmi i donosi sa sobom bogato iskustvo.

RAZVILI STE PREPOZNATLJIV BREND. JESTE LI U TOME IMALI POMOĆ STRANIH PRINCIPALA? Čitav naš brend image i filozofiju razvoja sami smo napravili, ja sam uvijek vjerovao u Jadransko more, i uvijek govorio da ne prodajemo samo brod, već i destinaciju. Tu je važno naše dubinsko poznavanje Jadrana, priveza, restorana, destinacija koje su na raspolaganju našim klijentima. Ako je potrebno, rezervirat ćemo vez na hvarskoj

rivi, ali i dostaviti lijekove za obitelj dok plovi, što smo znali raditi. Na našem teritoriju ima još izuzetno puno posla, jasno se vidi kako je u Italiji, Francuskoj ili Španjolskoj sve puno jahti, ali treba nam i orijentacija prema elitnom turizmu da bismo bili na istom nivou.

OSIM BRANDOVA IZ GRUPE FERRETTI, PRODAJETE TECHNOHULL I WILLIAMS GUMENJAKE? Prodaja Technohull gumenjaka nam ide izuzetno dobro, to je bio pravi potez. Volimo otići s našim kupcima u Grčku, gdje je tvornica, i bili smo nedavno deset dana tamo u okviru sajma i Dana otvorenih vrata. Technohull brodove kupuju ljudi koji traže vrhunsko dizajniran brod u svim detaljima, koji uz to još nudi nevjerojatne performanse. Technohull je pravi brod i kao sve popularniji ‘chase tender’ velikoj jahti. I u tom segmentu uspijevamo s prodajom.

Williams gumenjaci su sinonim pomoćne brodice na jet pogon i njihova kvaliteta i upotrebljivost kao tender na manjim i srednjim brodovima je dominantna.

JE LI VAM PRODAJA BRODA NAJVEĆE ZADOVOLJSTVO? Nekada prodamo brod a da nema neke velike satisfakcije. Ali satisfakcija je u tome da rezultati prodaje omogućuju zadovoljne suradnike, sretne što rade u tvrtki koja se razvija i ima viziju, da su svi nasmijani unatoč stresnim situacijama i previše posla, rade i trude se, i to je najveće zadovoljstvo. Puno naših suradnika je s nama više od 15 godina, neki čak i 25 godina. Oko prodaje su veliki stresovi, poput onog kada se doktor bori za život pacijenta a uvijek ne uspije... To je s godinama malo lakše, ali kada imaš veliki brod od sto i više stopa i sve je već dogovoreno, a klijent se okrene i ode drugdje, pa nema ništa od posla, a uložio si nekoliko godina rada na njemu, ne smiješ imati ‘problema sa želucem’ zbog toga. Svaki dan se događa i uspjeh i neuspjeh.

fied and want us to take care of their boat. Today we are able to answer any demand, but it’s still difficult to make money servicing, despite the high turnover. But it is important for us to offer our clients maximum support.

HOW MANY EMPLOYEES DO YOU HAVE TODAY? In the past, I was doing it all myself, but now we have ten sales experts for various markets, thirty employees in services, ten in the office, in marketing, charter... Altogether, there are more than fifty of us.

WHAT LIES AHEAD OF MENNYACHT IN THIS YEAR? As the one who has been running MennYacht since day one, I can tell you we are constantly developing throughout the Adriatic region. We moved one office from Kremik to Marina Mandalina Šibenik, where now, in addition to services, we also have a sales office in line with the standards of the Ferretti Group. In Marina Dalmacija Sukošan, we are opening the best sales office at the Adriatic, in the central marina building, and hiring additional workers in services and after sales. We also have a new service center in Split, led by our Jakov Dekovič, also providing additional support to Domagoj Tabak, who leads our Split sales branch. Our partner and director of MennYacht Croatia, Janko Matušić, is working on a project in Rijeka, more precisely in the industrial zone of Mučići, where we will build a large service hall and show room for Technohull, as addition to the storage and services facilities we have Poljane above Ičići. We also have a newly renovated office in the Porto Montenegro marina in Montenegro, which is becoming an increasingly important destination on the Adriatic, especially for large yachts. We have excellent results in our charter department, under director Eva Jeraša, and that department keeps getting stronger every year. We are also developing a yacht management department, under Kristina Trobec Bukvič, who recently joined our company and brought years of expertise.

YOU HAVE BUILT A RECOGNIZABLE BRAND. DID YOU HAVE ANY HELP FROM THE PRINCIPALS? We have built our entire brand and created our whole development philosophy ourselves. I have always be-

lieved in the Adriatic region and have always said that we do not only sell yachts, but also the destination. Our in-depth knowledge of the Adriatic, its moorings, restaurants, destinations that are available to our clients, that is all important. We are ready to book a berth on the Hvar waterfront or deliver medications to a family sailing with us; which we really did.

There is still a lot of work to do here in the region; Italy, France or Spain are good examples, but destinations need to focus more on elite tourism to get to the same level.

IN ADDITION TO THE FERRETTI GROUP BRANDS, YOU ARE ALSO DEALER FOR TECHNOHULL AND WILLIAMS RIBS. The sale of Technohull inflatables is going extremely well, that was the right move for us. We like to take our clients to Greece, where the factory is. We were just there recently for ten days, visiting their boat show and Technohull Open Day. Technohull models are popular with clients looking for a superbly designed vessel that also offers incredible performance. Technohull is a boater’s boat, with increasingly popularity as chase tender for large yachts. Williams inflatables are jet-powered tenders known for quality and versatility as the number one choice for a tender for smaller and medium-sized yachts.

IS THERE GREATER SATISFACTION THAN SELLING A BOAT? Actually, sometimes we sell a boat without any great satisfaction. But we find it in the results of the sale, providing that our employees are happy to work in a company that is always developing, following a vision, always with a smile on their face despite stressful situations and overwork, working and giving it all – that is the greatest satisfaction. Many of our employees have been with us for more than 15 years, some even 25 years.

Sales can be stressful, sometimes we fell as stressed as doctors fighting for the life of a patient and failing. It gets a little easier with age, but when you’re selling a big yacht, a hundred or more feet, and everything is already agreed upon, but then client turns on his heel and goes somewhere else – you’re left empty-handed after investing several years of work into it and you have no time to dwell on it. Success and failure happen every day.

SERIJA MAESTRO Dok serija Gozzo slavi korijene Apreamarea, serija Maestro hrabro korača prema naprijed, spajajući pomorsku tradiciju s naprednim dizajnom i tehnologijom. Najveći model serije, Maestro 88, predstavlja novo poglavlje za brodogradilište, a dizajniran je u suradnji s arhitektom Marcom Casalijem i inženjerom Umbertom Tagliavinijem.

Dugačak gotovo 27,70 metara i širok gotovo sedam metara, Maestro 88 je remek-djelo dizajna, s poluistisninskim trupom koji jamči stabilnost i učinkovitost.

Opremljen s dva motora MAN od po 1650 KS postiže najveću brzinu od 22 čvora, dok mu brzina krstarenja od 10 čvorova omogućava impresivnu autonomiju od čak 1000 nautičkih milja. Vanjske linije jahte skladno se stapaju s njezinim svijetlim, prostranim interijerima, s velikom beach club krmom i kliznim staklenim prozorom na glavnoj palubi, dok na flybridgeu vlasnici mogu uživati u prostoru za opuštanje, kuhinji sa šankom i integriranim solarnim pločama za održivo korištenje energije. Potpuno prilagodljiv interijer može biti podijeljen na

četiri kabine, za udobnost i eleganciju i na dugim krstarenjima.

APREAMARE REFIT Apreamare je u 2024. godini pojačao svoju predanost baštini i kvaliteti pokretanjem Apreamare Refita, namjenskog odjela usmjerenog na vraćanje starog sjaja jahtama Apreamare. Pod motom 'Povjerite svoj guc onome tko ga je izgradio', ova ekskluzivna usluga naglašava predanost brodogradilišta kvalitetnoj izradi i kontinuitetu.

U srcu Apreamare Refita je pogon od 3000 četvornih metara u sklopu glavne proizvodne lokacije u mjestu Torre Annunziata.

Ova radionica dizajnirana za rad na pet brodova istodobno nudi cijeli spektar usluga restauracije i modernizacije, tako da svaka jahta Apreamare – bez obzira na godine – vrati ili zadrži svoju ljepotu, performanse i vrijednost.

NOVO DISTRIBUCIJSKO PARTNERSTVO S ulaskom u 2025. godinu Apreamare nastavlja svoju međunarodnu ekspanziju s novopotpisanim ugovorom o distribuciji s tvrtkom Alberta Yachts, važnim igračem u nautičkom sektoru. Kroz svoju razgranatu mrežu koja obuhvaća Hrvatsku, Sloveniju, Bosnu i Hercegovinu, Srbiju i južnu Njemačku, Alberta Yachts služit će kao Apreamareov ekskluzivni zastupnik u ovim regijama. Ovo strateško partnerstvo odražava sve veće zanimanje za umijeće i inovacije koje nudi Apreamare na Balkanu, te jača status brenda kao globalnog ambasadora talijanske izvrsnosti.

For propulsion, owners have multiple options: the traditional Volvo Penta D4-320 shaft line engines or stern drive configurations with Volvo Penta D4-270 DPI and D4-320 DPI, each tailored for optimal efficiency and performance.

THE MAESTRO LINE While the Gozzo Line celebrates Apreamare’s roots, the Maestro Line takes a bold step forward, balancing respect for naval tradition with forward-thinking design and technology. At the pinnacle of this collection, the Maestro 88 represents a new chapter for the shipyard, designed in collaboration with architect Marco Casali and engineer Umberto Tagliavini.

With a length of 27.70 meters and a beam of nearly seven meters, the Maestro 88 is a masterpiece of semi-planing hull design, offering both stability and efficiency. Powered by twin 1650-horsepower MAN engines, it reaches a top speed of 22 knots, while a cruising speed of 10 knots delivers an impressive range of up to 1000 nautical miles. The yacht’s exterior seamlessly integrates with its bright, spacious interiors, featuring a generous beach club and a sliding glass window on the main deck. On the flybridge, owners can enjoy a relaxation area, a galley with a wet bar, and integrated solar panels for sustainable energy use. The fully customizable interiors can accommodate up to four cabins,

ensuring comfort and elegance for long-range cruising.

APREAMARE REFIT In 2024, Apreamare reinforced its commitment to heritage and quality with the launch of Apreamare Refit, a dedicated division focused on restoring Apreamare yachts to their original splendor. With the motto 'Take your gozzo to the person who built it', this exclusive service underscores the shipyard’s dedication to craftsmanship and continuity. The heart of Apreamare Refit is a 3,000-square-meter facility within the main production site in Torre Annunziata. Designed to accommodate up to five boats simultaneously, this state-of-the-art workshop offers a full spectrum of restoration and modernization services, ensuring that every Apreamare yacht – no matter its age – retains its beauty, performance, and value.

A NEW DISTRIBUTION PARTNERSHIP As Apreamare steps into 2025, it continues its international expansion with a newly signed distribution agreement with Alberta Yachts, a key player in the nautical sector. With a widespread network spanning Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and southern Germany, Alberta Yachts will serve as Apreamare’s Exclusive Dealer in these regions.

This strategic partnership reflects the growing appreciation for Apreamare’s craftsmanship and innovation in the Balkans, reinforcing the brand’s status as a global ambassador of Made in Italy excellence.

Ovo putovanje ističe prednosti hibridne tehnologije – tihu plovidbu, energetsku neovisnost i udobnost

This journey showcases the benefits of hybrid technology – silent cruising, energy independence, and comfort

Netaknuta ljepota Kornata – kristalno čisto more i potpuni mir The untouched beauty of Kornati – crystal-clear waters and total serenity

Istraživanje pučine na hibridnoj jahti Greenline Yachts nudi besprijekoran spoj inovacije, učinkovitosti i ekološke odgovornosti – vodimo vas na nezaboravno putovanje Nacionalnim parkom Kornati, prikazujući pritom prednosti hibridne tehnologije: tihu plovidbu, energetsku neovisnost i komfor. Od pogona isključivo na električnu energiju do punjenja bez napora u dizelskom načinu rada, Greenline 58 Fly pruža jedinstveno nautičko iskustvo, dokazujući da luksuz i ekološka odgovornost mogu ići ruku pod ruku.

KRSTARENJE PREMA LEVRNAKI Šarmantni gradić Biograd savršena je polazna točka prema Nacionalnom parku Kornati. Iz Marine Kornati isplovili smo rano ujutro, tiho klizeći mirnim vodama na električni pogon, zahvaljujući bateriji. Bez buke motora, mogli smo uživati u spokoju Jadrana.

Uz klimatizaciju na bateriju i uz kratku pauzu za gorivo, krenuli smo prema Levrnaki, udaljenoj 30 nautičkih milja.

Nakon nekoliko milja razina naše baterije bila je i dalje iznad 80 posto, što je dokaz kvalitete Greenlineove hibridne tehnologije. Prelaskom na dizelski način rada, krstarili smo brzinom od 18 čvorova i pritom punili baterije za svega 20 minuta. Plovidba

je protekla mirno, s pogledom na horizont koji se protezao unedogled, uz tek pokoju drugu jahtu na vidiku.

SMIRAJ NA SIDRU Do podneva smo stigli u mirnu uvalu Levrnaka. Surova ljepota Kornata ovdje u potpunosti dolazi do izražaja – nedirnuta priroda, kristalno čisto more i savršeni mir. Bez buke motora ili generatora koja bi ga narušila, prepustili smo se ritmu mora. Tijekom sljedeća dva dana vrijeme kao da je usporilo: plivamo, sunčamo se i divimo se prelijepim zalascima sunca. Svi uređaji i klimatizacijski uređaji na brodu rade na bateriju, koja traje 48 sati prije nego što padne na deset posto.

UGODAN POVRATAK U BIOGRAD U zoru trećeg dana opraštamo se od našeg skrovitog kutka – Greenline 58 Fly se budi i krećemo natrag. Efikasan dizelski motor jamči plovidbu bez poteškoća, a baterije se pune na putu. Nakon dva sata, vraćamo se u Marinu Kornati sa 100 posto napunjenom baterijom i privodimo savršen vikend kraju.

Ovo hibridno putovanje kroz Kornate ne samo da je istaknulo ljepote hrvatske obale, nego i idealan spoj tehnologije i održivosti, čineći svaki trenutak na moru doista posebnim.

Exploring the sea aboard a Greenline Yachts hybrid vessel offers a seamless blend of innovation, efficiency, and responsibility.

This article will take you through an unforgettable journey along Croatia’s Kornati National Park, showcasing the benefits of hybrid technology – silent cruising, energy independence and comfort.

From running purely on electric power to recharging effortlessly on diesel mode, the Greenline 58 Fly delivers an unparalleled experience, proving that luxury and responsibility can go hand in hand.

CRUISING TOWARDS LEVRNAKA The charming town of Biograd is the perfect gateway to Kornati National Park. Departing from Marina Kornati early in the morning, we glide silently through calm waters on electric power, courtesy of the battery bank.

With no engine noise, we fully immerse ourselves in the tranquility of the Adriatic. With air conditioning running off the battery and a quick top-up at the fueling station, we set off towards Levrnaka, 30 nautical miles away.

After just a couple of miles, our battery level remains above 80 percent, a testament to Greenline's hybrid technology. Switching to diesel mode, we cruise at 18 knots, recharging the batteries in just 20 minutes. The journey is

peaceful, the horizon stretching endlessly, interrupted only by the occasional passing sailboat.

SERENITY AT ANCHOR By midday, we arrive at the tranquil bay of Levrnaka. The raw beauty of Kornati is on full display – untouched nature, crystal-clear waters, and total serenity. With no engine or generator noise to disturb the peace, we embrace the rhythm of the sea.

Over the next two days, time slows. We swim, bask in the sun, and admire the stunning sunsets. All onboard appliances and air conditioning run off the battery bank, lasting 48 hours before dropping to ten percent.

A SMOOTH RETURN TO BIOGRAD At dawn on the third day, we bid farewell to our secluded haven.

The Greenline 58 Fly powers up, and we begin the journey back.

The efficient diesel engine ensures a smooth cruise, recharging the batteries along the way. After two hours, we return to Marina Kornati with 100 percent battery power, concluding a flawless weekend.

This hybrid-powered voyage through Kornati highlights not only Croatia's breathtaking coastline but also the perfect blend of technology and sustainability, making every moment at sea truly special.

NATIONAL PARK CRUISE Hrvatski nacionalni parkovi koji se nalaze na moru inspiracija su za proljetnu plovidbu i kombiniranje obilaska najpoznatijih hrvatskih turističkih bisera s posjetom ljeti prenapučenih odredišta

Seaside or marine national parks are inspirational cruising destinations, and spring is the perfect time to visit these pearls of nature, when summer hubbub is still months away TEXT Darko Šupuk PHOTOS Boris Kačan, Adobe Stock, HTZ / Zoran Jelača & Aleksandar Gospić

Kao moreplovci iskvareni ljepotama hrvatskog Jadrana, skloni smo za vrijeme ljetnih plovidbi tražiti 'savršene' uvale u kojima možemo uživati, po mogućnosti u samoći s tirkiznim morem ispod krme, potpuno zaštićeni od vremenskih (ne)prilika i s mogućnošću doticanja civilizacijskih dosega poput restorana ili dućana bez puno napora. Takvih je uvala sve manje, jer ako strani nautičari nisu već otkrili sve kutke koje godinama rado pohodimo, to jesu napravili njihovi skiperi, pa se sve više na moru ljeti 'igramo skrivača' bježeći u sve dalje i otvorenije uvale u potrazi za robinzonskim uvjetima kakvi su nekad bili. Pri tome smo zaboravili na najpopularnija odredišta koja su u pravilu prebukirana, jer svoje mjesto na rivama ili sidrištima najpoznatijih destinacija treba zaslužiti preranim dolaskom ili, još gore, plaćenom rezervacijom.

Mi vam stoga kao ideju za proljetnu plovidbu, umjesto treniranja samoće, nudimo ideju za obilazak najpopularnijih odredišta koja su u proljeće dostupna sve dok ne počnu gužve, i to kombinirajući obilazak tri ili četiri nacionalna parka s najrazvikanijim gradovima. Za to će vam trebati ili nešto brži brod ili dva tjedna sporije jahte ili jedrilice, a mi vam od srca želimo da u proljeće možete odvojiti i malo vremena za uživanje na moru. Inače, za čarteraše je to idealan 'one-way' aranžman. Kao po-

Spoiled by the beauties of the Croatian Adriatic, we tend to spend our summer months looking for 'perfect' coves offering turquoise sea behind our stern and nothing else, well protected from the weather, and if possible, close to the joys of civilizations such as restaurants or shops. Those coves are few and far between, and recently they are disappearing at the speed of light, with yachting tourists discovering each and every peaceful corner we’ve been happily sailing to all by ourselves for many years.

So much of our summer vacations these days is spent playing hide and seek at sea, escaping to ever more distant coves, ever closer to the open seas, searching for those Robinsonian conditions that we used to enjoy. We have already given up on the most popular destinations, which are usually overbooked, where every spot on every beach and anchorage is won in a battle, or by booking well in advance, or worst of all, by making a paid reservation.

This year, don’t sail into the sunset looking for distant waters others won’t reach – move your cruise to spring (before the crowds show up, of course), and visit three or four national parks, and the towns near them. You’ll need either a slightly faster boat, or two weeks of free time on a slower yacht or a sailboat. We sincerely hope you can take some time

Zadar

moćnu varijantu sugeriramo da rutu prepolovite ili podijelite u dva dijela pa je oplovite u dva navrata, po želji okrenete smjer ili jednostavno naše sugestije doživite kao podsjetnik za tumaranje tim još uvijek malo manje napučenim dijelom Jadrana.

Ako u plovidbu krećete iz splitskog akvatorija, ona vas vodi na zapad prema prvom nacionalnom parku koji možete posjetiti, a to je NP Krka. Predlažemo vam da, ako dugo niste bili ili slučajno imate goste na brodu, prvu večer posvetite Dioklecijanovu gradu i otkrijete čari nove splitske turističke ponude.

Ako jedva čekate ostaviti Split u brazdi, plovidbu možete provesti u sigurnosti šibenskog arhipelaga birajući između uvala Žirja i Kaprija ili stoljetnih riva Zlarina i Prvića. Ako na 'đitu' krećete u kasnijim satima, primoštenska riva ili jezerski ambijent Rogoznice nepogrešivi su izbor. Vaš cilj je drugog dana doći do Skradina, uživajući u plovidbi kroz Kanal sv. Ante, ispod Šibenskog mosta dalje prema Prokljanskom jezeru i slijedeći kanjon Krke kojim ćete prolaskom ispod mosta Dalmatine ugledati svoje odredište. Izlet u NP Krka preporučujemo u jutarnjim satima, kada su gužve manje, a posjet lokalnim vinarijama u obližnjem Plastovu vidimo kao moguću popodnevnu razbibrigu pri dolasku. Ako želite uživati u ljepotama Krke na poseban način, javite se Šimi Petroviću radi privatnog izleta njezinim gornjim tokom, jer u hrvatskoj turističkoj ponudi ne postoji ništa slično. Taj luksuz nije besplatan, ali ćete doživjeti ljepotu nacionalnog parka na poseban način, s tim da treba napomenuti kako se na Uskrsni ponedjeljak na Skradinskom buku održava misa koju pohode vjernici iz cijele Hrvatske.

Ruta vas vodi dalje na Kornate. Naš prijedlog je da im priđete s istoka i posjetite jedan od dva gastronomska hrama na tom dijelu, čuveni restoran Opat u istoimenoj uvali ili onaj na otočiću Ravni Žakan. Nama je uvijek lijepo popeti se na bilo koju uzvisinu s koje možete uživati u pogledu na kornatski arhipelag, u kojem možete provesti i cijeli godišnji odmor. Primijetili smo kako Kornati u proljeće imaju poseban zelenkasti ton, za koji je zaslužno mlado bilje koje s vrućinama brzo prelazi u žute nijanse. Sljedećeg jutra uživajte u plovidbi kroz jedinstvenu skupinu kornatskih otočića do parka prirode Telašćica i

Sailing through the St. Anthony Channel you will reach Krka National Park as the first natural attraction on your route

for spring sailing, but if you can’t, our suggested route will still await as a 'one-way' package. Alternatively, we suggest that you cut the route in half, or divide it into two parts and sail it twice; maybe reverse direction, or take our suggestions as loosely as you want to, wandering around this still slightly less crowded part of the Adriatic at your own pace.

If you set sail from Split, the route we suggest will take you west, towards the first national park on our list: the famous Krka National Park. If you haven't visited for a while or if you happen to have guests on board who don’t know the town, leave the first evening free to wander Diocletian's city and discover what’s new in Split. If you simply can't wait to leave Split behind, you can spend your sailing vacation in the serenity of the Šibenik archipelago, between the coves of Žirje and Kaprije, or the centuries-old promenades on Zlarin and Prvić. If you set sail later in the day, the Primošten promenade or the lakeside landscape of Rogoznica are must-see. Plan to reach Skradin on the second day, after a lovely sail through the St. Anthony Channel and under the Šibenik bridge, then towards Prokljansko Lake and Krka Canyon, visible immediately after passing under the Dalmatina bridge. We recommend you visit the Krka National Park in the morning, when the crowds are smaller, and maybe spend the afternoon visiting the local wineries in nearby Plastovo. If you want to meet the river krka in an unusual way, contact Šima Petrović for a private excursion to its upper reaches – there is nothing like it in all of Croatia. This luxury does not come free, but you will experience the beauty of the national park in a unique. The cave at Skradinski buk is the place to be on Easter Monday, with a mass attended by believers from all over Croatia.

Our route takes you farther into the Kornati Islands, and if you ask us, the best way to enter the park is from the east – with a visit to one of the two gastronomic temples in the area: the famous restaurant Opat in the bay of the same name, or the restaurant on the island of Ravni Žakan. We always enjoy a good climb, especially if it leads to a place with panoramic views – we could spend our entire vacations atop such a hill. From above, the Kornati Islands have a special greenish tone in spring, before young plants quickly turn yellow

obilazak slanog jezera Mir, u sklopu kojeg uz samo malo hoda možete uživati i u pogledu sa 160 metara visoke stijene južne obala Dugog otoka. Tu vas ruta vodi dalje ili na zapad prema kraju Dugog otoka, na kojem je prirodno posjetiti najljepšu hrvatsku pješčanu uvalu Sakarun, ili prolaskom kroz prolaz Proversa Mala možete zaploviti k sjeveru u posjet gradu Zadru. Osim što možete napraviti odličan 'city break', iz Zadra možete uživati u organiziranom posjetu Nacionalnom parku Paklenica, za što vam predlažemo da se javite Marinu Marasoviću u starogradskom hotelu Rajna, koji za vas može organizirati nezaboravan jeep safari po prostranstvima južnog Velebita.

Nakon Zadra ili Dugog otoka, osobno volim prespavati na otoku Premudi, koji je okrenut pučini, a mnoge moje prijatelje privlači i sigurnost naseljenije Silbe. Kako je ovo 'đita kroz civilizaciju' kao sljedeće odredište vam predlažemo Mali Lošinj. Nećete pogriješiti bilo da uživate u kombinaciji SPA i gastro sadržaja u uvali Čikat, po nama najboljem mjestu koje kombinira vrhunsku gastronomiju i mogućnost well-being tretmana za nautičare na Jadranu, ili u sigurnosti lokalne marine i gradskim sadržajima Malog Lošinja. Svojevrsni odmor od nacionalnih parkova neće trajati dugo jer vas put vodi prema Brijunima, uz moguće zaustavljanje na uvijek posebnom otoku Susku.

O Brijunima ne treba trošiti puno riječi, a koliko god bili (ne)uređeni, još uvijek predstavljaju biser hrvatskog turizma koji je s vremena na vrijeme lijepo posjetiti, posebno brodom. Vašu plovidbu možete završiti u Rovinju, koji krasi nova ACI marina i fantastični hotelski sadržaji obogaćeni vrhunskim restoranima.

A svoju rutu možete produžiti i prema Veneciji, uz posjet čuvenom La Biennaleu koji počinje u svibnju ili sve sadržajnijem sajmu nautike koji se održava početkom lipnja. Bilo da mu dodate La Serenissimu ili vaše plovilo privežete u Rovinju, obilazak hrvatskih nacionalnih parkova na moru je gotovo kompletiran. Naime, Nacionalni park Mljet vas čeka kada pramac usmjerite na jug, što je tema nekog drugog članka.

Plovidba sjevernim Jadranom odvest će vas do istarskog poluotoka, čarobnih Brijuna i mondenog Rovinja

Route through north Adriatic is leading you towards Istrian paenninsula, magical Brijuni national park and modern Rovinj

in the heat. The next morning, enjoy sailing through the unique group of Kornati islands to the Telašćica Nature Park, where you can see the salt lake Mir, or walk to the tall cliffs (160 m) on the southern coast of Dugi Otok. From there, the route takes you either west to the very end of Dugi Otok, where many visit the most beautiful bay in Croatia, Sakarun. You can also pass through the Proversa Mala passage and sail north, to visit the town of Zadar. In addition to being great for a citybreak vacation, Zadar is also the perfect starting spot for organized visits to the Paklenica National Park.

Contact Marin Marasović at the old town hotel Rajna to experience an unforgettable jeep trip through the rugged area of Southern Velebit.

After Zadar or Dugi Otok, we love to spend the night on the island of Premuda, looking toward the open sea, while many of our friends prefer the more populated Silba. Since this is not supposed to be a trip far away from any sign of civilization, we suggest Mali Lošinj as the next destination. You can’t go wrong on Mali Lošinj, with many wellness

JUVET LANDSCAPE HOTEL GEIRANGERFJORD — NORWAY U zagrljaju brezove šume, na rubu veličanstvenoga Geirangerfjorda, gdje se brzaci rijeke sudaraju s impozantnim planinskim vrhovima, skriva se Juvet Landscape Hotel. Krajobrazne sobe, ptičje kućice koje lebde iznad tla te četverokrevetna koliba tvore jedinstvenu simbiozu netaknute norveške divljine i smione arhitekture, rođene iz dubokog poštovanja prema prirodi. Arhitektonska vizija dvojca Jensena i Skodvina, s oštrim, modernim linijama, stvara veličanstveni kontrast s mekim zelenim tepihom krajolika naglašavajući sirovu ljepotu okoliša. Nije stoga čudno što je Juvet poslužio kao kulisa kultnom filmu 'Ex-Machina'. Njegova spartanska elegancija, savršeno utkana u minimalističku estetiku, postavlja vječno pitanje: što nam je uistinu potrebno za savršen bijeg od svakodnevice?

Embraced by a birch forest, on the edge of the magnificent Geirangerfjord, where the river's rapids collide with imposing mountain peaks, lies the Juvet Landscape Hotel. The landscape rooms, birdhouses that float above the ground, and a four-bed chalet form a unique symbiosis of untouched Norwegian wilderness and bold architecture, born from deep respect for nature. The architectural vision of the Jensen and Skodvin duo, with sharp, modern lines, creates a magnificent contrast with the soft green carpet of the landscape, emphasizing the raw beauty of the surroundings. It's no wonder that Juvet served as the backdrop for the cult film 'Ex-Machina.' Its spartan elegance, perfectly woven into the minimalist aesthetic, poses the eternal question: what do we truly need for the perfect escape from everyday life?

CIN EM A TA LK 'Ne vjerujem u sreću. Vjerujem u pripremu i priliku koja se susretnu', izjavio je jednom prilikom Adrien Brody, pri čemu je savršeno sažeo filozofiju koja ga je dovela do vrha svjetske kinematografije. Umjetnik izuzetne transformacije, čovjek koji nestaje u svojim likovima, ali nikada ne gubi vlastiti identitet, Brody je osvojio drugog Oscara za najbolju mušku ulogu – ovaj put za ulogu u filmu 'The Brutalist'.

OD PREDGRAĐA NEW YORKA DO CRVENOG TEPIHA Rođen 1973. u četvrti Woodhaven u Queensu, Adrien Brody odrastao je u umjetničkoj atmosferi. Njegova majka, Sylvia Plachy, rođena je u Budimpešti i emigrirala je u SAD 1958. godine, dok mu je otac, Elliot Brody, američki Židov poljskog podrijetla. Kao priznata fotografkinja, majka mu je svojim radom približila svijet vizualne umjetnosti, razvijajući njegov osjećaj za promatranje detalja i emocija – osobinu koja će mu kasnije pomoći u glumi. Još kao dijete, Brody je zabavljao prijatelje iluzionističkim trikovima i stekao nadimak 'The Amazing Adrien' ('Čudesni Adrien'). No prava magija nije bila u njegovim rukama, već u njegovoj sposobnosti da potpuno uđe u likove koje je tumačio.

S 13 godina upisao je prestižnu American Academy of Dramatic Arts, a do kasnih tinejdžerskih godina već je gradio ozbiljnu ka-

rijeru u nezavisnim filmovima.

Prvi veliki uspjeh za Brodyja stigao je 2002. godine, kada ga je Roman Polanski odabrao za glavnu ulogu u filmu 'Pijanist'. Kako bi se pripremio za ulogu preživjelog Židova u varšavskom getu, izgubio je više od 13 kilograma, odrekao se stana, auta, pa čak i privatnog života. No, unatoč njegovoj impresivnoj izvedbi, malo tko je očekivao da će odnijeti pobjedu na dodjeli Oscara. U konkurenciji s velikim glumačkim imenima poput Daniela Day-Lewisa i Jacka Nicholsona, Brody je slovio kao autsajder. No, kada je ime dobitnika nagrade za najboljeg glumca izgovoreno, šok je bio opipljiv – kako u publici, tako i na njegovu licu. Uslijedio je trenutak koji je ušao u povijest Oscara: strastveno je poljubio Halle Berry, a zatim održao emotivan govor koji je dirnuo svijet.

KARIJERA OBILJEŽENA NEPREDVIDIVIM ODLUKAMA Mnogi glumci nakon osvajanja Oscara biraju komercijalne projekte, no Brody nikada nije krenuo tim putem, pridružujući se rijetkoj skupini umjetnički dosljednih glumaca. Nije postao superherojski junak, niti tipični blockbuster protagonist. Umjesto toga, birao je uloge koje su ga izazivale – od trilera ('The Village'), akcijskih filmova ('Predators'), do art-house klasika ('The Darjeeling Limited', 'Midnight in Paris'). Posebno su zani-

‘I don't believe in luck. I believe in a meeting between preparation and chance,’ Brody once said, offering a perfectly summarized philosophy that got him to the top of world cinema. An artist capable of extraordinary transformation, a man who becomes his characters without ever losing his own identity, Brody won his second Best Actor Oscar for ‘The Brutalist’.

FROM NEW YORK SUBURBS TO THE RED CARPET Born in 1973 in Woodhaven, Queens, Adrien Brody grew up surrounded by art. His mother Sylvia Plachy, who was born in Budapest, immigrated to the USA in 1958, while his father, Elliot Brody, is an American Jew of Polish origin. As an accomplished photographer, Brody’s mother opened the world of visual arts to him, which helped develop his sense of noticing details and emotions – a characteristic that came in handy in his acting career. As a child, Brody would perform magic shows for his friends as ‘The Amazing Adrien’. However, the true magic didn't come from his hands, but his ability to get into every character he portrayed. At the age of 13, he enrolled in the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts and in his late teens, he started building a serious career in independent films.

Brody’s first major success came

in 2002, when Roman Polanski cast him as the lead in his ‘The Pianist.’ To prepare for the role of a Jew surviving in Warsaw Ghetto, Brody lost more than 28 pounds, gave up his apartment, his car, and even his private life.

But despite his impressive performance, few people expected him to win an Oscar. Brody was seen as an outsider in the category with fellow nominees Daniel Day-Lewis and Jack Nicholson. But, once his name was announced as Best Actor winner, the shock was palpable, both among the audience and on his face. What happened next is history: he gave Halle Berry a passionate kiss and then held an emotional speech that moved the world.

CAREER MARKED WITH UNPREDICTABLE DECISIONS Many actors turn to commercial projects after winning an Oscar, but Brody decided not to take that road, joining a group of select few artists nurturing a consistent artistic sensibility.

He didn't become a superhero or a typical blockbuster lead.

Instead, he pursued roles that challenged him – from thrillers ('The Village'), action films ('Predators'), to art-house classics ('The Darjeeling Limited', 'Midnight in Paris'). His cooperation with Wes Anderson was particularly interesting since the director knew how to put Bro-

Dvadeset godina nakon što je postao najmlađi dobitnik Oscara za glavnu mušku ulogu u povijesti, Brody je ponovno osvojio zlatni kipić

Twenty years after becoming the youngest Oscar winner in the Best Actor category, Brody won another golden statue

Brodyjeva interpretacija arhitekta u filmu 'The Brutalist', koji kroz umjetnost traži utočište u egzilu, hvaljena je kao jedna od najboljih u njegovoj karijeri

mljive bile njegove suradnje s Wesom Andersonom, redateljem koji je znao iskoristiti njegov specifičan spoj melankolije, karizme i ekscentričnosti. Ali ono što Brodyja zaista izdvaja jest njegova tajanstvenost – nije tipični holivudski miljenik tabloida, ne nameće se publici, ne igra po pravilima industrije. On je glumac koji radije istražuje nego ponavlja formule.

dy's unique blend of melancholy, charisma and eccentricity to use.

But what really sets Brady apart is his mysteriousness – he is not a typical tabloid favorite; he doesn’t impose himself on the audience nor does he play by the industry’s rules. He is an actor who likes to explore rather than go after a tried and tested formula.

BRODYJEV 'BRUTALAN' POVRATAK Tada je stigao film 'The Brutalist', u kojem je Brodyjeva karijera doživjela novi vrhunac. Redatelj Brady Corbet stvorio je mračnu, poetičnu priču o mađarskom arhitektu koji traži svoje mjesto u Americi nakon Drugog svjetskog rata. Film se ističe snažnom vizualnom estetikom i intenzivnom atmosferom, a Brodyjeva izvedba postala je njegov najzreliji i najslojevitiji glumački rad do sada. Njegov lik utjelovljuje spoj ambicije, nostalgije i unutarnjih trauma, a kritičari su pohvalili njegovu suzdržanu, ali emotivno nabijenu izvedbu.

Na dodjeli Oscara Brody je još jednom ispisao povijest. Dvadeset godina nakon što je iznenadio svijet pobjedom za 'Pijanista', na pozornicu je stao kao sigurniji, iskusniji i potpuno afirmiran glumac. Ovog puta nije bilo šoka – njegovo je ime izgovoreno među favoritima, uz ovacije publike koja je prepoznala njegovu predanost umjetnosti.

Then came ‘The Brutalist,’ representing a new highlight in Brody’s career. Director Brady Corbet created a dark, poetic story about a Hungarian architect looking for his place in post-WWII United States.

The film stands out due to its strong visual aesthetics and evocative setting, while Brody’s performance became his most mature and layered role so far. His character embodies ambition, nostalgia and internal trauma, with critics praising his restrained, but emotionally charged performance.

At the Oscars, Brody wrote history once again. Twenty years after surprising the world when he won an Oscar for ‘The Pianist,’ he took the stage as a more confident, experienced and completely established actor. There was no surprise this time – he was one of the favorites, with a standing ovation from the audience that recognized his dedication to art.

ŽIVOT UMJETNIKA IZVAN FILMSKOG PLATNA

LIFE FILLED WITH ART OUTSIDE CINEMA

Izvan svijeta filma, Brody ostaje vjeran umjetnosti u različitim oblicima. Njegova strast prema arhitekturi vidljiva je u restauraciji povijesnih građevina, uključujući dvorac iz 19. stoljeća u New Yorku, koji je pretvorio u kreativno utočište. Istodobno, slikarstvo mu nije tek usputna zanimacija – njegova djela našla su svoje mjesto u uglednim galerijama, dodatno potvrđujući njegovu svestranost.

Da je pravi estet, vidljivo je i u njegovu modnom izričaju. Svojim elegantnim, ali odvažnim stilom ističe se na crvenim tepisima, često birajući klasiku renomiranih brendova poput Ermenegilda Zegne i Dolce & Gabbane. Bilo kroz arhitekturu, slikarstvo ili odijevanje, Brody njeguje prepoznatljiv spoj tradicije i suvremenog izričaja, ostajući dosljedan vlastitoj umjetničkoj viziji.

Outside the world of film, Brody is passionate about art in various forms. His love of architecture is reflected in the fact that he engages in restoration of historic buildings, including a 19th century castle in New York, which he turned into a creative sanctuary. At the same time, painting is more than just a pastime – his works are on display at distinguished galleries, underpinning his versatile artistic expression.

His aesthetic nature is reflected in his fashion sense. The elegant, but bold creations he wears stand out on the red carpet as he often turns to classics by famous brands such as Ermenegildo Zegna and Dolce & Gabbana. Whether it’s architecture, painting or clothes, Brody remains true to his artistic vision by combining tradition and contemporary in a recognizable manner.

NASLJEĐE UMJETNIKA KOJEG NE MOŽEMO DEFINIRATI

HERITAGE OF AN ARTIST WHO CANNOT BE DEFINED

U svijetu u kojem su slava i uspjeh prolazni, Adrien Brody ostaje iznimka. Njegovo putovanje od mladog iluzionista iz New Yorka do dvostrukog oskarovca nije samo inspiracija, već i dokaz da prava umjetnost ne poznaje rok trajanja. Dok večer Oscara završava, a reflektori blijede, Brody stoji na pozornici kao čovjek koji je konačno pronašao svoje mjesto u povijesti kinematografije. Njegov tajanstveni osmijeh sugerira da mu je još mnogo toga ostalo za pokazati. Jer ako nešto znamo o Adrienu Brodyju, to je da će nas njegova sljedeća uloga uvijek iznenaditi.

In a world where fame and success are ephemeral, Adrien Brody is an exception. His journey from a young magician in New York to a double-Oscar winner is not only an inspiration, but proof that true art has no expiration date. As the Academy Awards evening comes to an end and the lights go out, Brody is standing center stage as a man who finally found his place in cinema history. His enigmatic smile suggests that this isn’t the last we’ll see of him. For if there’s one thing we know about Adrien Brody, it’s that his next role is going to surprise us.

Draguljarski gigant s najviše specijalnih narudžbi kraljevskih kuća simbol je statusa, vrhunskog dizajna i izrade najdelikatnijih komada nakita, a 350 impresivnih primjeraka koji su obilježili povijest Cartiera izloženo je u Muzeju Viktorije i Alberta u Londonu The jewelry giant with the most warrants from royalty is a symbol of status, superior design and the creation of the most delicate pieces of jewelry, and 350 impressive examples that marked the Maison’s history are on display at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum

LU X U RY LIFESTY LE Pitanje je dostojno kviza: što je zajedničko indijskom maharadži, monegaškoj princezi Grace Kelly, pop-zvijezdi Rihanni, Oscarom nagrađenoj glumici Zoe Saldani i britanskoj kraljici Elizabeti? Odgovor je – Cartier. Preciznije, ukrasi koji su nošeni u posebnim, povijesnim prigodama, sada su objedinjeni u Muzeju Viktorije i Alberta u Londonu, gdje se od 12. travnja do 26. studenoga izlaže 350 predmeta s pečatom ove francuske draguljarske kuće. Izložba prikazuje kako je pariška draguljarnica, koju je 1847. osnovao Jean Louis Cartier, postala sinonim za glamur i prva svjetski prepoznatljiva kuća s ekspoziturama u Parizu, New Yorku i Londonu. Na njezinu listu klijenata odmah se upisala aristokracija i okrunjene glave, a Cartier je postao poznat kao draguljar kraljeva i kralj draguljara.

'Cartier je 1904. dobio dva naloga od engleske kraljevske obitelji: jedan od kralja Edwarda VII., a drugi od kraljice Aleksandre. Dakle, kralj i kraljica bili su posebni klijenti. Velika je to čast bila za draguljare poput Cartiera jer kralj i kraljica su najzahtjevniji klijenti. Nakit koji su u povijesti nosile

kraljevske obitelji nije samo ukras, nego ukras sa značenjem. Predstavlja status, moć, osebujnost, ukus. Tada je to značilo upisati se u dugu tradiciju i ostavštinu kraljevske obitelji, ali je odražavalo i inovaciju. Primjerice, platinasti nakit koji je Cartier tada predstavio bio je ključ uspjeha među svim kraljevskim dvorovima', kazuje Pierre Rainero, više od dvadeset godina Cartierov direktor za Image, Style and Heritage. Zadatak gospodina Reinera je da brine o arhivu i Cartierovim kolekcijama, što uključuje i 3000 povijesnih primjeraka. Stoga je upravo on ključan sugovornik kulturnim institucijama i muzejima koji diljem svijeta organiziraju izložbe Cartierovih kreacija.

Prva je to izložba u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu u posljednjih trideset godina posvećena Cartieru, a među eksponatima su povijesno drago kamenje, kultni satovi, dosad neviđeni crteži i fotografije iz arhiva V&A i Cartiera, primjerci iz velikih muzeja i privatnih zbirki, a i kralj Charles posudio im je nakit iz impresivne Kraljevske zbirke.

Jedan od tih posebnih komada je broš Williamson, koji je Charleso-

Here's a question for a trivia quiz: what do an Indian Maharaja, Monaco's Princess Grace Kelly, pop-star Rihanna, Oscar-winner Zoe Saldana and British Queen Elizabeth have in common? The answer is – Cartier.

To be more specific, jewelry worn on special, historical occasions is now on display at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum from April 12 to November 26, featuring 350 pieces designed by this French jewelry house.

The exhibition showcases how the Parisian jewelry, founded in 1847 by Jean Louis Cartier, became synonymous with glamor and the first globally recognizable jewelry house with stores in Paris, New York and London.

Once the royal family became Cartier’s client, the house became the jeweler of kings and the king of jewelers.

'Cartier got two warrants, from the Royal family of England in 1904, one from the king himself, King Edward the 7th and one from Queen Alexandra. So, both the King and Queen were special clients. And those warrants were a very important honor for a jeweler like Cartier, because the Kings and Queens as clients are the most demanding ones. In history, jewelry worn by the Royals is not only an ornament, it's a meaningful

ornament. It represents status, power, distinctiveness, taste. Back then, it meant joining the long tradition and legacy of the royal family, but it also reflected innovation. For example, the platinum jewelry that Cartier introduced was the key to success among all royal courts,' says Pierre Rainero, who has been Cartier's Image, Style and Heritage Director for over two decades. Mr. Reiner looks after the archives and the Cartier collections, which includes 3,000 historical pieces. Therefore, he is the key point of contact for cultural institutions and museums that put Cartier's creations on display around the world.

It is the first exhibition in the United Kingdom in the last thirty years dedicated to Cartier, with historical precious stones on display, as well as iconic watches, never-before-seen drawings and photographs from the V&A and Cartier archives, items from major museums and private collections, including jewelry from the impressive Royal Collection King Charles loaned to the museum. One of these special pieces is the Williamson brooch, commissioned by Charles' mother, Queen Elizabeth, in 1957, the year of her coronation. An incredibly rare 23.6-carat diamond, given to her

LU X U RY LIFESTY LE as a wedding present in 1947, was set into the spectacular brooch. The rose clip brooch is also on display, one of the favorite pieces owned by Queen's sister, Princess Margaret. There’s also the famous Scroll Tiara commissioned in 1902 and worn at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, which Rihanna wore at the cover of W magazine in 2016.

Some exceptional pieces of jewelry also marked special love stories throughout history. Grace Kelly's engagement ring, which the actress wore in her last film 'High Society' in 1956, before she married Prince Rainier III, came from the collection of the Prince's Palace of Monaco. The Flamingo brooch purchased in Paris in 1940 and the Panther brooch from 1949 are reminders of the fatal love story between Wallis Simpson and Edward VIII. Visitors can also see an amethyst and sapphire brooch made by Cartier London in 1933 for Jacques Cartier's wife, Nelly. Remarkable pieces include Mexican film star María Félix's extravagant snake necklace from 1968 and the magnificent Manchester tiara made in 1903 for the Duchess of Manchester.

The Panther collection, which is Cartier’s symbol, is also not to be missed.

A new modular one-of-a-kind diamond and emerald necklace was worn by actress Zoe Saldana at the Oscars, and the V&A Museum exhibits a Panthere diamond bracelet encrusted with onyx, made in 1978.

Curators Helen Molesworth and Rachel Garrahan organized the exhibition into three main sections. The first part follows the Cartier founder and his grandsons: creative Louis, diamond merchant Jaques, and businessman Pierre, on their journey of business expansion and building trusting relationships with royal families and top clients. One of them was the Maharaja whose fantastic jewels were incorporated into the Patiala necklace in Cartier's Paris atelier. The second part of the exhibition encompasses the Cartier workshop and technical innovations in wristwatches and table watches. The famous 1904 Santos, or the first men’s wristwatch, can also be seen here.

The finale of the exhibition is reserved for tiaras, a symbol of status and elegance uniting all Cartier's assets. In April 2005, 13 tiaras from the Cartier collection were also exhibited in Zagreb’s Mimara Museum, which, of course, cannot be compared to the exhibition in London.

But it was always important to Cartier for its masterpieces to be on display. 'Cartier is a symbol of premium design and superior craftsmanship for different audiences, so it is important to share it with the public. This speaks volumes about all the innovations in terms of style, design and pushing the boundaries in making the most delicate pieces of jewelry possible. And so that's why this very specific warrant Cartier obtained at the beginning of the 20th century accompanied the entire history of Cartier till today, because as you know, we still have the warrant from the King Charles the 3rd and this is a very important journey that Cartier led all through that period of time,' Pierre Rainero pointed out.

va majka, kraljica Elizabeta, od Cartiera naručila 1957., u godini svoje krunidbe. U taj spektakularan broš ugrađen je rijedak ružičasti dijamant od 23,6 karata, koji je 1947. dobila kao vjenčani dar. Izložen je i broš s kopčom od ruže, jedan od omiljenih komada nakita kraljičine sestre, princeze Margaret. Tu je i čuvena Scroll Tijara naručena 1902. i nošena na krunidbi Elizabete II., a pop-zvijezda Rihanna pozirala je s njom na naslovnici W magazina 2016.

Neki iznimni komadi nakita kroz povijest su obilježili i posebne ljubavne priče. Tako je iz kolekcije Kneževske palače u Monaku na izložbu stigao zaručnički prsten Grace Kelly koji je glumica nosila 1956. u svom posljednjem filmu 'Visoko društvo', prije nego se udala za princa Rainiera III. Podsjetnici na fatalnu ljubav Wallis Simpson i Edwarda VIII. na izložbi su broš Flamingo kupljen u Cartieru u Parizu 1940. te Panthere broš iz 1949. Posjetitelji izložbe mogu vidjeti i broš od ametista i safira koji je 1933. izradio Cartier London za ženu Jacquesa Cartiera, Nelly. Posebne su atrakcije ekstravagantna zmijska ogrlica meksičke filmske zvijezde Maríje Félix iz 1968. te veličanstvena tijara Manchester izrađena 1903. za vojvotkinju od Manchestera. Nezaobilazna je i zbirka dragulja s motivima pantere, trajni prepoznatljivi simbol kuće. Novu, modularnu unikatnu ogrlicu od dijamanata i smaragda nosila je glumica Zoe Saldana na dodjeli Oscara, a u Muzeju V&A izložena je Panthere dijamantna narukvica prošarana oniksom, izrađena 1978.

Kustosice Helen Molesworth i Rachel Garrahan Izložbu su podijelile u tri dijela. Prvi dio prati osnivača Cartiera i njegove unuke Louisa – kreativca, Jacquesa – trgovca dijamantima i Pierra – biznismena, na putu poslovne ekspanzije i izgradnje odnosa povjerenja s kraljevskim obiteljima i top-klijentima, poput maharadže, čiji su fantastični dragulji u Cartierovu pariškom atelijeru ugrađeni u ogrlicu Patiala. Drugi dio izložbe obuhvaća radionicu i tehničke inovacije u ručnim i stolnim satovima, a među njima je i prvi muški ručni sat, čuveni Santos iz 1904.

Finale izložbe rezervirano je za tijare, simbol statusa i elegancije koji objedinjuje sve Cartierove adute. Tijare iz zbirke Cartier – njih 13 – u travnju 2005. izložene su i u Zagrebu, u Muzeju Mimara, što se, dakako, ne može mjeriti s postavom u Londonu.

No Cartieru je uvijek bilo važno pokazati svoja remek-djela. 'Cartier je simbol vrhunskog dizajna i vrhunske izrade za različite prilike, pa je zato važno podijeliti ga s javnošću. To puno govori o svim inovacijama u pogledu stila, dizajna i pomicanju granica u izradi najdelikatnijih komada nakita što ga je moguće izraditi. I zato je ovaj specifičan nalog što ga je Cartier dobio početkom 20. stoljeća pratio i obilježio cijelu našu povijest. Znate, mi još uvijek imamo nalog kralja Charlesa III.,' istaknuo je Pierre Rainero.

Stoga nije iznenađujuće da je nedavno odabrana ambasadorica ovog slavnog brenda upravo Oscarom nagrađena glumica Jessica Chastain. Njezin talent, elegancija i autentičnost savršeno odražavaju vrijednosti koje brend njeguje, čineći je idealnim simbolom Damianijeva nasljeđa i vizije.

Oživljavanje zlatnog doba Hollywooda Zlatno doba Hollywooda bilo je razdoblje neosporne raskoši i bezvremenskog stila. Glumice su bile ikone elegancije i privlačnosti, s pomno osmišljenim detaljima. Od svilenih haljina do blistavih dijamanata, svaki je element doprinosio njihovoj neodoljivoj prisutnosti. Jessica Chastain oživljava ovu kinematografsku tradiciju u najnovijoj kampanji Damiani.

Njezina pojava, naglašena vrhunskim nakitom Damiani, priziva razdoblje kada je glamur bio način življenja.

Kolekcija MIMOSA, inspirirana cvijetom mimoze, uključuje dijamante i drago kamenje vješto posloženo u skladan i profinjen dizajn, naglašen suptilnim trodimenzionalnim efektom. Kolekcija se sastoji od prstenja, narukvica, naušnica, ogrlica i satova: svaki dragulj u ovoj kolekciji malo je umjetničko djelo – mozaik najčišćih dragih kamenja, u različitim oblicima i rezovima, poredanih jedan do drugog u čudesnoj izmjeni cjeline i praznine, svjetla i refleksije.

Maison Damiani, born from humble be beginnings in Valenza, the heart of Italy’s goldsmithing tradition, has evolved into a global symbol of luxury. What sets Damiani apart is not only its exc exceptional craftsmanship but also the familial dedication passed down throug through generations. Now under the guidance of its third generation, the brand continues to captivate jewelry lovers around the world, blending the finest materials with artistic mastery.

It is no surprise that Academy Award-winning actress Jessica Chastain has recently been chosen as the ambassador for this iconic brand. Her talent, elegance, and authenticity reflect the values the brand upholds, making her the perfect symbol of Damiani’s legacy and vision.

Reviving the Golden Age of Hollywood The golden age of Hollywood, was a period of undeniable opulence and timeless style. Actresses became icons of elegance and allure, with every detail meticulously crafted – from silk gowns to dazzling diamonds, each element contributed to their irresistible presence. Jessica Chastain brings this cinematic tradition to life in Damiani’s latest campaign. Her appearance, accentuated by Damiani’s exquisite jewelry, evokes the era when glamour wasn’t just an aesthetic but a way of living.

Damiani captures this timeless essence through its MIMOSA collection, inspired by the delicate beauty of the mimosa flower. Featuring diamonds and gemstones skillfully arranged in a refined design, the collection exudes elegance, with a subtle three-dimensional effect.

The collection is composed of rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and watches: each jewel in this collection is a little work of art – a mosaic of the purest stones, in different shapes and cuts, arranged one next to the other in a wondrous alternation of solids and voids, light and reflections.

Belle Époque Reel

Kolekcije BELLE ÉPOQUE i BELLE ÉPOQUE POQUE E REEL REE EELL nadahnute nad dah a nu nute su u istoimeissto toimea o biljež bi ežen enim im kkulturnim, ulturnim, nim razdobljem kraja 19. i početkaa 20. stoljeća, obilježenim atom. Fasciniran dinamičnom energiumjetničkim i intelektualnim procvatom. jom tog doba i njegovom vizijom svijeta u pokretu, Damiani slavi umjetnost ‘kretanja’ kroz inovativan dizajn i vrhunsku izradu nakita.

Inspiriran revolucionarnom filmskom vrpcom tog razdoblja, dizajn Belle Époque ogleda se u preciznim geometrijskim oblicima. Nizovi dijamanata savršeno su kombinirani sa safirima, rubinima i smaragdima, stvarajući harmoniju boja i svjetlosti koja priziva eleganciju i kreativnost toga povijesnog doba. Vanjski profil svakog komada dodatno je naglašen linijama dijamanata, čime se postiže još veća sofisticiranost. Pokret je najbolja riječ za opis dragocjenog križa Belle Époque, bestselera kolekcije, sastavljenog od dva križa, jedan u drugom, koji se mogu nositi i odvojeno.

Tradicionalnija ideja filma i umjetnosti u pokretu se razvija, prihvaćajući suvremeniji, spontaniji i izravniji koncept vizualne kreativnosti. Duh noviteta kolekcije Belle Époque Reel odražava dinamičnost i neposrednost modernih videa kreiranih za digitalne kanale, pa su tako ponijeli naziv 'Reel'. Novo prstenje i ogrlice – u bijelom, ružičastom i žutom zlatu, obogaćeni najčišćim dijamantima u najdragocjenijim verzijama – predstavljaju središnji mehanizam koji se, kada ga dotaknete, sam okreće i oživljava, baš poput koluta. Krugovi i pravokutnici – oblici unutar oblika – daju beskonačnu potjeru, poput višestrukih videozapisa u društvenom feedu; simbol stalnog napretka koji je nezaustavljiv.

Kolekcija MARGHERITA inspirirana je elegantnom i fascinantnom Margheritom od Savoje, poznatom i slavljenom po svojoj profinjenoj ljepoti, svojem kraljevskom držanju i odlučnom karakteru: najomiljenija kraljica Italije potaknula je kreativnost Enrica Grassija Damianija, koji joj je posvetio dragocjeni cvjetni dragulj.

Kolekciju Margherita karakterizira potpuno ručno izrađen cvjetni element koji dočarava eleganciju cvijeta margarita: prekrasan cvijet Talijani vole, a daruje ga se iz čiste ljubavi, iskrene emocije i romantike. Njezin linearni i geometrijski dizajn ukrašen je dragocjenim draguljima koje su pažljivo odabrali zlatarski majstori iz Valenze: skladno nježne i romantične, svijetle kombinacije boja – dizajnirane s različitim bojama zlata i dijamanata, ametista, citrin kvarca i safira – daju kreacijama profinjenu i bezvremensku privlačnost. Njezina nježna elegancija odražava suptilnu raskoš starog Hollywooda.

The BELLE ÉPOQUE and BELLE BELL ÉPOQUE REEL collections draw inspiration rom the cultural, artistic, and intellectual renaissance at the turn of the 20th from century. Fascinated by the dynamic energy of this era and its vision of a world in motion, Damiani celebrates the art of movement through innovative designs and impeccable craftsmanship.

Inspired by the revolutionary film reel of the period, the Belle Époque collection features geometric shapes, with diamonds paired with sapphires, rubies, and emeralds to create a harmonious blend of color and light, reflecting the elegance and creativity of that historical period. Each piece is further enhanced by diamond-lined outer profiles, adding an extra layer of sophistication. The movement is the best word to describe the precious Belle Époque cross, the collection’s best seller, made up of two crosses, one inside the other, that can also be worn separately.

The more traditional idea of cinema and art in movement evolves, embracing a more contemporary, spontaneous and direct concept of visual creativity.

The spirit of these Belle Époque Reel collection novelties reflects the dynamism and immediacy of the modern videos created for the digital channels, thus taking on the name ‘Reel’. The new rings and necklaces – in white, rose and yellow gold, enriched by the purest diamonds in the most precious versions – present a central mechanism that, when caressed, rotates on itself and comes to life, just like a Reel. Circles and rectangles – shapes within shapes – give infinite chase, like multiple videos in a social feed; a symbol of ongoing progress that is unstoppable.

The MARGHERITA collection is inspired by the stylish and fascinating Margherita of Savoy known and celebrated for her refined beauty, her royal poise and her decisive character: the most loved Queen of Italy has fuelled the creativity of Enrico Grassi Damiani, who dedicated a precious floral jewel to her.

The Margherita collection is characterized by an entirely hand-made floral element which evokes the elegance of the Margherita flower: a beautiful blossom much loved in Italy which is often donated by sweethearts to express pure love, genuine emotion and blissful romance. Its linear and geometric design is embellished by precious gems carefully selected by the master goldsmiths of Valenza: harmoniously delicate and romantic, the bright colour combinations – designed with the different colours of gold and diamonds, amethysts, citrine quartzes and sapphires - give the creations a refined and timeless allure. Its delicate elegance embodies the subtle luxury of Old Hollywood.

Vječni glamur U svijetu koji sve više naginje minimalizmu, Damiani se usuđuje slaviti raskoš prošlih vremena. Kampanja nije samo prikaz nakita – ona je ljubavno pismo starom Hollywoodu. Jessica Chastain, ukrašena nakitom koji blista snovima zlatnog doba, podsjeća nas da pravi glamur nadilazi vrijeme. Damiani ne stvara samo nakit – on stvara trenutke. Svaka kreacija unosi čaroliju starog Hollywooda u sadašnjost, dokazujući da elegancija nije relikt prošlosti, već bezvremensko blago koje čeka da bude ponovno otkriveno.

Eternal Glamour In a world increasingly drawn to minimalism, Damiani dares to celebrate the grandeur of a bygone era. The campaign is not just a showcase of jewelry – it’s a love letter to Old Hollywood. Jessica Chastain, adorned in jewelry that sparkles with the dreams of a golden age, reminds us that true glamour transcends time. Damiani doesn’t just create jewelry – it creates moments. Each design weaves the magic of Old Hollywood into the present, proving that elegance is not a relic of the past but a timeless treasure waiting to be rediscovered.

VAŠA OBITELJ BAVI SE IZRADOM NAKITA VIŠE OD POLA STOLJEĆA. KAKO SU IZGLEDALI SAMI POČECI ZLATARNICE PRAHIR? Svaki početak kreće prvim korakom, a to je prije svega bila odluka da nastavljamo obiteljski posao koji su započeli naši roditelji. U tim trenucima najbitnija je upornost, a fokus i želja bili su nam glavni pokretači. Kako smo rasli i stjecali iskustva tako su nam ideje za proširenje poslovanja jednostavno navirale.

PO ČEMU JE PREPOZNATLJIV NAKIT PRAHIR? Spoj glamura i funkcionalnosti nakita nit je vodilja koja naš nakit čini tako posebnim, želimo uvijek unijeti novitete na tržište nakita i svakako ohrabriti naše kupce da se odvaže i na nešto neobičnije dizajne.

KAKO SU SE TIJEKOM GODINA MIJENJALI STIL I TEHNIKE IZRADE NAKITA? U današnje vrijeme 3D printera, vrhunske tehnologije CNC strojeva, mogućnosti su daleko nadmašile tradicionalnu ručnu izradu nakita. Današnja mogućnost vizualizacije dizajna prije same izrade daje i našim kupcima puno veću mogućnost sudjelovanja u kreaciji unikatnih komada nakita.

KAKO USPIJEVATE USKLADITI SUVREMENE TRENDOVE I BEZVREMENSKU ESTETIKU U DIZAJNU NAKITA? Naša najveća snaga je mogućnost izrađivanja nakita u vlastitom proizvodnom pogonu, naravno i u motiviranju naših kupaca da sudjeluju u dizajniranju nakita te tako zajedno kreiramo jedinstven nakit. Trendovi se mijenjaju, no isto tako se s vremenom i vraćaju, pa se i nakit naših baka ponovno vraća u modu.

GDJE PRONALAZITE INSPIRACIJU ZA NOVE KOLEKCIJE? Inspiraciju uvijek pronalazimo u životu oko nas, ono što nas okružuje inspirira nas da izrađujemo nakit u tom stilu. Ponekad je to pahulja snijega, kapi vode, list u jesen ili šarenilo ljetnih boja.

KAKO IZGLEDA PROCES IZRADE JEDNOG KOMADA NAKITA, PRIMJERICE, ZARUČNIČKOG PRSTENA? Proces uvijek kreće od dizajna. S obzirom na to da je zaručnički prsten nakit s jako puno simbolike, želja nam je da uvijek bude jedinstven jer će se taj nakit nositi dugo vremena. Dizajn prstena obuhvaća odabir boje i finoće zlata, vrste kamena koji će biti u prstenu, kao i način na koji će taj kamen biti ugrađen. Kada smo sve definirali, kreće sam proces proizvodnje, gdje prvo sve dogovoreno pretvorimo u 3D vizualizaciju i tada prvi put u biti znamo kako će prsten izgledati. Sam proces proizvodnje traje kroz nekoliko faza: od pripreme materijala, izljeva zlata, obrade prstena i pripreme za ugradnju kamena. Nakon ugradnje kamena prsten je spreman za završno poliranje i, po željama, graviranje posvete i osobne poruke.

MOŽETE LI IZDVOJITI VAŠ OMILJENI KOMAD NAKITA? Rekao bih da je to upravo zaručnički prsten. Prsten simbolizira obećanje budućnosti i početak novog zajedničkog života. Zauvijek ostaje svjedok obećanja danog na početku, a uz malo truda postaje i unikatan. Uvijek ostaje na ruci osobe koja ga nosi i uvijek pristaje uz svaku prigodu. Druge vrste nakita prate trendove i modu, a zaručnički prsten je konstanta.

KAKO VIDITE BUDUĆNOST PRAHIR FINE JEWELLERYJA? Prije svega planiramo ulaganje u novu poslovno-proizvodnu zgradu na više od 3000 četvornih metara, koja će nam omogućiti da još bolje povežemo naše dvije grane, proizvodnu i maloprodaju.

Neprekidno ulaganje u nove tehnologije, inovacije u proizvodnji, investiranje u znanje naših djelatnika kao i proširenje naših maloprodajnih kapaciteta budućnost je kojoj se radujemo.

With over 50 years of tradition, Zagreb’s Prahir family is synonymous with premium gold and diamond jewellery and wedding and engagement rings. We spoke with the owners of the company, Tomislav and Hrvoje Prahir, who proudly emphasize how they combine family tradition with an innovative approach to creating unique jewellery of lasting quality and distinctive style.

YOUR FAMILY HAS BEEN IN THE JEWELLERY MAKING BUSINESS FOR OVER 50 YEARS. WHAT DID THE BEGINNING LOOK LIKE FOR PRAHIR FINE JEWELLERY? Every beginning starts with the first step, and that was the decision to continue the family business our parents started.

Persistence was crucial, and our focus and desire were our main drivers. As we grew and gained experiences, the ideas for expanding business would simply come flooding.

WHAT IS A DISTINCT FEATURE OF PRAHIR JEWELLERY? A mix of glamour and function is the guiding principle that makes our jewellery so special, we always want to show something new and encourage our buyers to be bold and try something different.

HOW DID THE STYLE AND TECHNIQUE OF JEWELLERYMAKING CHANGE OVER TIME? In a time of 3D printers, CNC machines’ premium technology has surpassed traditional hand-made jewellery techniques. The option of seeing a visual representation of a design before making it gives our buyers an opportunity to participate in making unique pieces of jewellery.

HOW DO YOU MANAGE TO ADAPT CONTEMPORARY TRENDS AND TIMELESS AESTHETICS IN JEWELLERY DESIGN? Our greatest strength is the ability to make jewellery at our own production plant, and of course, motivate our buyers to participate in jewellery design so we can create unique pieces together. Trends change, but they also come back after a while, so our grandmothers’ pieces become trendy again.

WHERE DO YOU FIND INSPIRATION FOR NEW COLLECTIONS? We always find inspiration in the life around us, the things that surround us inspire us to make jewellery in that style. Sometimes it's a snowflake, other times a drop of water, an autumn leaf or colourful summer motifs.

WHAT DOES THE PROCESS OF CRAFTING A PIECE OF JEWELLERY, FOR EXAMPLE AN ENGAGEMENT RING, LOOK LIKE? The process always starts with the design. Since an engagement ring is imbued with symbolism, we want it to be special since it will be worn for a long time. A ring design encompasses selecting colour and millesimal fineness, gem type and the setting technique. Once everything has been defined, the creation process starts, the first step of which is to turn what we agreed on into a 3D visual model, so we see what the ring will actually look like for the first time. The manufacture process itself comprises several stages: preparing materials, melting gold, finishing the ring and preparing it for stone setting. Once the stone is set, the ring is ready for polishing, and any possible engraving requests.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PIECE OF JEWELLERY? I would say engagement rings. A ring symbolizes the future and the start of a new life together. It always remains a sign of promise given at the beginning, and with a little effort, it becomes unique. It always stays on the hand of the person wearing it and it fits every occasion.

Other pieces follow trends, but engagement rings are a constant.

WHAT DO YOU THINK THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR PRAHIR FINE JEWELLERY? First of all, we plan to invest in a new location that will comprise 3000 square meters of business and manufacture spaces, allowing us to bring our manufacturing and retail branches closer together. Constant investment in new technologies, innovation in production, investing in our employees’ knowledge and expanding our retail capacities is a future we look forward to.

Biofilija je koncept koji cijeni ljepotu prirode i potiče održivost, a mi smo istražili kako ga možete uklopiti u svoj dom Biophilia is a concept that appreciates the beauty of nature and inspires sustainable practices. Explore how to incorporate it into your home

Carl Hansen & Søn

Prirodni materijali Trend biofilnog dizajna potiče korištenje tkanina koje stimuliraju osjet. Odabir prirodnih materijala poput drva, vune i pamuka omogućava povezanost s prirodom. Ležaljka i stolić za kavu studija Carl Hansen & Søn primjer su ovog pristupa. Spajaju prirodne materijale s modernom izradom: ležaljka kombinira puno drvo, upleteno uže od papira i stručno tapeciranu tkaninu koja se ne gužva, dok okrugli stolić za kavu s drvenim okvirom i pokretnom pločom od hrastovine, oraha ili talijanskog mramora koristi mjedene elemente za dašak elegancije.

Natural Materials The biophilic design trend encourages the use of tactile fabrics to stimulate the senses. By choosing natural materials like wood, wool and cotton, you can enjoy a harmonious connection with nature. Sideways Lounge Chair and Coffee Table by Carl Hansen & Søn exemplify this approach, blending natural materials with modern craftsmanship. The lounge chair combines solid wood, natural paper cord, and expertly upholstered fabric for a sleek, crease-free finish. The round coffee table, with its wooden frame and reversible tabletop in oak, walnut, or Italian marble, is accented with brass fittings for elegance.

Prirodne boje Iako mnogi povezuju biofilni dizajn sa sobnim biljkama – trendom koji još uvijek buja u domovima i drugim interijerima diljem svijeta – taj tip dizajna ipak je nešto više. Boje nadahnute prirodom igraju ključnu ulogu u uvođenju prirode u interijere. Tako, primjerice, sofa Osaka kuće BoConcept donosi savršenu mješavinu raznih oblika biofilne estetike. Njezin suptilan, ženstven šarm nadahnut dizajnom 1960-ih dovoljno je snažan da bude temelj stila svake prostorije. Usto, može se prilagoditi organskim materijalima i zemljanim tonovima, stvarajući laganu, prozračnu atmosferu u domu.

Natural Colors While many associate biophilic design with house plants – a trend that's still booming in interiors worldwide – its benefits extend beyond greenery. Nature-inspired colors also play a crucial role in bringing the outdoors in. For example, the Osaka sofa by BoConcept offers a perfect blend of biophilic design aesthetics. With its subtle feminine charm and a nod to 1960s design, it not only adds style but can also be customized with organic materials and earthy tones, creating a light, airy atmosphere in your home.

Prirodni oblici Još jedan efikasan način za uključivanje biofilnog dizajna u dom je korištenje prirodnih oblika, kao što su biofilni tepisi.

Natural Forms

Another effective way to incorporate biophilic design into your home is through the use of natural forms, such as biophilic rugs. Tapis Studio's rugs feature raw shapes, organic textures, and colors inspired by nature. From the rugged texture of tree bark to the delicate surface of a leaf, these rugs evoke the beauty of the outdoors. Available in natural shades like green, brown, and blue, and made from materials such as wool, cotton, jute, and sisal, they create a serene atmosphere, bringing the beauty of nature into your home.

Nova lokacija, ista vrhunska usluga New Location, Same First- Class Service C L I N I C B U R OW A renowned Clinic Burow, with a long tradition in Split, moved to a new location late last year. In a modern, 300 meter-square space on the first floor of a new building at Vukovarska 35d, the clinic now offers additional medical and beauty services, in line with the latest global trends.

In addition to high-quality implantology and a wide range of dermatological and aesthetic treatments, patients can also try Arkana neurocosmetics, intended for people with hypersensitive skin. Along with constant investments in education and state-of-the-art technology, the plan is to additionally expand the expert team and introduce new medical services.

The story of the Clinic Burow began in the ‘90s, when Dr. Helge Burow and his wife Maja, driven by their love for the sea and their adventurous spirit, decided to move from Germany and open a practice in Dalmatia.

Today, they proudly say that Split has become their home where they have managed to build a successful clinic recognized for its expertise and individual approach to patients. The pair’s dedication to work is also evident in the fact that they have been working every Saturday for 25 years – when there is no doctor or nurse, they assume responsibility to ensure the best possible care for patients.

'People my age usually think about slowing down, but I still love to work.

The adrenaline I feel while working gives me greater pleasure than any material possession. Every working day is a new challenge for me – that’s my life', admits Dr Burow.

B U R O W . H R

Renomirana klinika Burow, s dugogodišnjom tradicijom u Splitu, krajem prošle godine preselila se na novu lokaciju. U moderno uređenom prostoru od 300 četvornih metara na prvom katu nove zgrade u Vukovarskoj ulici 35d, klinika sada nudi još širu paletu medicinskih i estetskih usluga, u skladu s najnovijim svjetskim trendovima.

Uz vrhunsku implantologiju te cijeli niz dermatoloških i estetskih tretmana, pacijentima su na raspolaganju i tretmani neurosenzorne kozmetike Arkana, namijenjene osobama s hiperosjetljivom kožom. Osim stalnog ulaganja u edukaciju i najmoderniju tehnologiju, u planu je i dodatno širenje tima stručnjaka te uvođenje novih medicinskih usluga.

Priča o nastanku klinike Burow započela je devedesetih godina, kada su se dr. Helge Burow i njegova supruga Maja, vođeni ljubavlju prema moru i avanturističkim duhom, odlučili preseliti iz Njemačke i otvoriti ordinaciju u Dalmaciji. Danas s ponosom ističu kako je Split postao njihov dom u kojem su uspjeli izgraditi uspješnu kliniku prepoznatu po stručnosti i individualnom pristupu pacijentima. Njihova posvećenost poslu očituje se i u tome što već 25 godina rade svake subote – kada nema doktora ili medicinske sestre, oni sami preuzimaju odgovornost kako bi osigurali najbolju moguću skrb za pacijente.

'Ljudi u mojim godinama obično razmišljaju o smanjivanju tempa, ali ja još uvijek volim raditi. Adrenalin koji osjećam na poslu pruža mi veće zadovoljstvo od bilo kakve materijalne stvari. Svaki radni dan za mene je novi izazov – to je moj život', priznaje dr. Burow.

Četiri elementa koja oblikuju vina Meneghetti Four Elements Shape the Wines of Meneghetti M E N E G H E T T I W I N E H O T E L & W I N E RY Jedinstveni pečat vinima Meneghetti daju četiri elementa – dah mora, ljepota Istre, zanatska enologija i crvena zemlja. Takva su i dva signature vina: White – blend pinota bijelog i chardonnaya u gotovo jednakim omjerima – te Red, koji nastaje kombinacijom merlota, cabernet sauvignona i cabernet franca. Za oba se grožđe bere ručno i na hladnome ostaje preko noći. White fermentira u velikim bačvama, gdje odležava deset mjeseci, nakon čega se puni u boce na najmanje godinu dana dodatnog dozrijevanja. Red prolazi složeniji proces, jer sorte koje ga čine dozrijevaju u različito vrijeme. Svaka sorta fermentira zasebno i odležava oko 18 mjeseci. Potom slijedi kupažiranje i punjenje u boce, a nakon toga još 30 do 36 mjeseca odležavanja. Jer velika vina zahtijevaju strpljenje, kako ističe Walter Filiputti, glavni vinski konzultant vinarije Meneghetti.

190

PROLJEĆE SPRING 2025

Meneghetti wines are defined by a unique touch, shaped by four elements – the breath of the sea, the beauty of Istria, artisanal oenology and red soil.

All these are encapsulated in two signature wines: White – a blend of Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay in nearly equal parts – and Red, created from a combination of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. For both, grapes are handpicked and left to cool overnight. White ferments in large barrels, where it ages for ten months before bottling, followed by at least one additional year in a bottle before releasing to the market. Red undergoes a more complex process since the grape varieties mature at different times. Each variety ferments separately and ages for about 18 months.

Afterwards comes the blending and bottling, followed by another 30 to 36 months of maturation. Great wines require patience, as revealed by Walter Filiputti, the chief wine consultant at Meneghetti winery.

LIFESTY LE Mercedes-Benz predstavio je novu generaciju modela CLA, koja označava prekretnicu u segmentu kompaktnih luksuznih vozila. S fokusom na tehnološku inovaciju i održivost, CLA će prvi put biti dostupan u potpuno električnoj verziji, a kasnije će Mercedes-Benz imati u ponudi i opciju blagog hibrida.

CLA zadržava prepoznatljivu siluetu coupéa, no donosi niz modernih i funkcionalnih poboljšanja.

Dugačak međuosovinski razmak, kratki prevjesi i snažan GT stražnji kraj emotivni su izraz atletske snage, dok su sportske proporcije naglašene niskim staklenim površinama i dugim poklopcem motora.

Aerodinamički oblikovana karoserija, s impresivnim koeficijentom otpora zraka od 0,21, svjedoči o pažljivoj optimizaciji svakog detalja.

Unutrašnjost novog CLA donosi u segment kompaktnih luksuznih automobila neke potpuno nove ideje. Dizajneri su se vodili principom minimalizma, uklanjajući suvišne detalje i fokusirajući se na nekoliko ključnih tehnoloških elemenata.

Iza elegantne staklene površine skrivaju se 10,25-inčni digitalni instrumenti za vozača i 14-inčni središnji zaslon osjetljiv na dodir, dok je kao opcija dostupan MBUX Superscreen koji se proteže cijelom širinom kabine. Nova generacija MBUX infotainment sustava predstavlja vrhunac tehnološkog razvoja, spajajući snagu umjetne inteligencije iz Microsofta i Googlea u jedinstveno korisničko iskustvo.

Za početak, Mercedes-Benz je ponudio novi model u dvije izvedbe: CLA 250+ i CLA 350 4MATIC s EQ tehnologijom. Električni CLA impresionira dometom do 792 kilometra (WLTP), a zahvaljujući brzom punjenju već za deset minuta možete obnoviti 325 kilometara dosega.

Novi CLA stiže u salone u srpnju.

Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the new generation of the CLA model, marking a milestone in the compact luxury vehicle segment. With a focus on technological innovation and sustainability, the CLA will be available for the first time in a fully electric version, and later, Mercedes-Benz will also offer a mild hybrid option.

The CLA retains its distinctive coupé silhouette, but brings a range of modern and functional improvements. The long wheelbase, short overhangs, and powerful GT rear are an emotional expression of athletic power, while the sporty proportions are emphasized by low glass surfaces and a long hood. The aerodynamically shaped body, with an impressive drag coefficient of 0.21, testifies to the careful optimization of every detail.

The interior of the new CLA brings some entirely new ideas to the compact luxury car segment. Designers followed the principle of minimalism, removing superfluous details and focusing on a few key technological elements.

Behind the elegant glass surface are 10.25-inch digital instruments for the driver and a 14-inch center touchscreen display, while an optional MBUX Superscreen that spans the entire width of the cabin is available.

The new generation MBUX infotainment system represents the pinnacle of technological development, combining the power of artificial intelligence from Microsoft and Google into a unique user experience.

Initially, Mercedes-Benz has offered the new model in two versions: the CLA 250+ and the CLA 350 4MATIC with EQ technology. The electric CLA impresses with a range of up to 792 kilometers (WLTP), and thanks to fast charging, you can replenish 325 kilometers of range in just ten minutes.

The new CLA arrives in showrooms in July.

ASTON MART I N VA LHALLA Nakon izrazito ekstremnog Valkyrieja, Valhalla je drugi model Aston Martina koji na cestu donosi tehnologiju iz Formule 1. Valhalla je prvi serijski Astonov automobil sa središnje smještenim motorom, prvi koji koristi baterije i elektromotore i prvi plug-in hibrid koji ima domet na struju od 15-ak kilometara. U srcu karbonske ljušture smješten je karizmatični Mercedes-AMG V8, koji je inače službeni dobavljač motora za Aston Martinovu F1 momčad. S dodatna tri elektromotora snaga sustava iznosi 1079 konjskih snaga. Dizajnerski, Valhalla je prepoznatljiv Aston Martin, a vozački orijentirana unutrašnjost s odrezanim upravljačem podsjeća na radno mjesto Fernanda Alonsa.

Following the extremely extreme Valkyrie, the Valhalla is Aston Martin's second model to bring Formula 1 technology to the road. The Valhalla is Aston's first production model with a mid-engine layout, its first to utilize batteries and electric motors, and its first plug-in hybrid with an electric-only range of 15 kilometers. At the heart of the carbon-fiber shell lies a charismatic Mercedes-AMG V8, which is also the official engine supplier for Aston Martin's F1 team. With an additional three electric motors, the system's total output is 1079 horsepower. Design-wise, the Valhalla is a recognizable Aston Martin, and the driver-oriented interior with a truncated steering wheel is reminiscent of Fernando Alonso's cockpit.

MCLAREN W1 U povijesti McLarena modeli koji imaju jedinicu u imenu predstavljaju apsolutni vrhunac automobilske industrije, koji uključuje epske performanse, teatralni nastup i vrhunsko vozačko iskustvo.

Prije više od tri desetljeća model F1 bio je najbrži automobil na svijetu, a njegov nasljednik – P1 bio je jedan od začetnika kategorije hibridnih hiperautomobila. Novi W1 lansiran je na 50. obljetnicu McLarenove prve pobjede u Formuli 1, a posebno atraktivno izgleda u službenoj Papaya boji. Kao i kod svih cestovnih bolida, dizajn je diktiran aerodinamikom, hibridni pogon daje ukupno 1275 konjskih snaga, a opsežna upotreba naprednih laganih materijala zaslužna je za samo 1399 kg težine.

In McLaren's history, models with a number one in their name represent the absolute pinnacle of the automotive industry, combining epic performance, theatrical presence, and the ultimate driving experience. Over three decades ago, the F1 model was the fastest car in the world, and its successor – the P1 – was one of the pioneers of the hybrid hypercar category. The new W1 was launched on the 50th anniversary of McLaren's first victory in Formula 1 and looks especially attractive in the official Papaya color. As with all extreme cars, the design is dictated by aerodynamics, the hybrid powertrain delivers a total of 1275 horsepower, and extensive use of advanced lightweight materials contributes to a weight of just 1399 kg.

Poput svojih prethodnika, F80 na cestu donosi tehnologiju razvijenu na trkaćim stazama. Najsnažniji cestovni Ferrari svih vremena trolitreni V6 dijeli s modelom 499P koji je 2023. i 2024. pobijedio na 24 sata Le Mansa, a ukupna snaga hibridnog pogona iznosi 1200 konjskih snaga. Ferrari tvrdi kako je svaki aspekt arhitekture zamišljen kako bi se maksimizirale performanse, od karbonske šasije i ekstremnih aerodinamičkih rješenja do novog aktivnog ovjesa, a pritom je F80 ostao upotrebljiv za svakodnevno korištenje.

The story of Ferrari's supercars began in 1984 with the 288 GTO, followed by the F40, F50, Enzo, and LaFerrari. Like its predecessors, the F80 brings racetrack-honed technology to the road. The most powerful road-going Ferrari ever, it shares its 3.0-liter V6 engine with the 499P, which won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 and 2024, and boasts a combined output of 1200 horsepower.

Every aspect of the F80's architecture is designed for maximum performance, from the carbon fiber chassis and extreme aerodynamics to the new active suspension, yet it remains surprisingly usable on a daily basis.

BU GATTI TO U R BI LLON Dizajniran za Pour l’éternité (za vječnost, op.a.), Bugatti Tourbillon je oda mehaničkoj vječnosti, utjelovljujući beskonačnost u svakom detalju. Već sam pogled na instrument-ploču koja podsjeća na prekrasne mehaničke satove pokazuje kako novi Bugattijev hiperautomobil slavi analognu ljepotu. U srcu Tourbillona kuca moćni 8,3-litreni atmosferski V16 motor, nastao u suradnji s Cosworthom. Uparen s električnim pogonom, ovaj hibridni div razvija impresivnih 1800 konjskih snaga. Iako prekrasan po svom dizajnu i proporcijama, svaka površina, usisnik i otvor pažljivo su oblikovani kako bi se uravnotežile ogromne aerodinamičke sile koje djeluju na automobil koji se kreće brzinom većom od 400 km/h.

Designed for eternity, the Bugatti Tourbillon is an ode to mechanical timelessness, embodying infinity in every detail. A mere glance at the instrument panel, reminiscent of exquisite mechanical timepieces, reveals the new Bugatti hypercar’s celebration of analog beauty. At the heart of the Tourbillon beats a mighty 8.3-liter naturally aspirated V16 engine, co-developed with Cosworth. Paired with electric propulsion, this hybrid behemoth delivers an impressive 1,800 horsepower. While stunning in its design and proportions, every surface, intake, and vent is meticulously crafted to balance the immense aerodynamic forces acting upon a car capable of over 400 km/h.

GENTS' RIDE Kultni engleski luksuzni SUV Range Rover prava je kopnena jahta, koja spaja vrhunske terenske sposobnosti i udobnost avionske biznis-klase Iconic English luxury SUV Range Rover is a true landyacht that combines superior off-road capabilities and business class comfort

AUTOMOTI V E test

'Život se kreće prilično brzo. Ako se ne zaustaviš i ne osvrneš tu i tamo, mogao bi ga propustiti.' Glasi jedna od malih, ali važnih životnih mudrosti iz filma 'Slobodan dan Ferrisa Buellera', koja nas podsjeća na važnost usporavanja i uživanja u svakom trenutku. U potrazi za savršenim bijegom, inspirirani duhom bezbrižnog eskapizma Ferrisa Buellera, zamijenili smo urbani asfalt prostranstvima Alpa i dolinom Soče, gdje nam je društvo pravio jedan od najkultnijih automobila u povijesti.

Range Rover oduvijek je bio automobil koji ne podliježe prolaznim trendovima ni užurbanom ritmu autoindustrije. Od debija 1970. godine, kada je postavio temelje luksuznog SUV segmenta, predstavljen je u svega pet generacija – svaka pažljivo oblikovana kako bi očuvala duh originala, a istodobno pomaknula granice luksuza i tehnologije.

Najnovija verzija nastavlja bogatu tradiciju, unoseći još rafiniraniju i suvremeniju interpretaciju prepoznatljivog dizajna. Pet ključnih elemenata ostaje nepromijenjeno: opadajuća linija krova, izražena bočna silueta, nakošeni donji rub kod prtljažnika, prepoznatljivi poklopac motora i lebdeći krov. Upravo suptilne dorade i pažljivo izbalansirane proporcije čine ovaj model vizualno najelegantnijim do sada, koji je dodatno naglašen upečatljivim vertikalnim stražnjim svjetlima. Novi Range Rover izgleda elegantno i profinjeno, bez suvišnih detalja koji bi narušili dizajnersku čistoću automobila.

Unutrašnjost odiše istim duhom, gdje se spokoj zen vrtova susreće s raskošnim materijalima i naprednom tehnologijom. Iako Autobiography oprema obiluje 'gadgetima', poput 3D kamera, ClearSight unutarnjih retrovizora, Apple CarPlaya i AndroidAuta, prednjih grijanih, hlađenih i masažnih sjedala podesivih u 24 smjera, kliznog panoramskog krova, Range Rover ih prezentira s profinjenom suzdržanošću, stavljajući besprijekornu udobnost korisnika na prvo mjesto. Pritom treba istaknuti kako se 'britanski gospodin' ne boji ni najtežih terena, za koje je opremljen pogonom na četiri kotača, reduktorom prijenosa, Terrain Response sustavom, elektroničkim zračnim ovjesom, kamerama za pregled terena, blokadama diferencijala, te upravljanjem na sva četiri kotača koje omogućava sjajnu okretnost s obzirom na dimenzije automobila.

Već prvi dio našeg putovanja do Kranjske Gore otkriva jahtašku crtu automobila. Položaj za upravljačem je dominantan, a vožnja nalikuje opuštenoj plovidbi luksuznim brodom uz 350 dizelskih konja i automatski mjenjač s osam stupnjeva prijenosa. Tišina kabine, u kombinaciji s mekoćom ovjesa, stvara osjećaj izoliranosti od vanjskog svijeta.

To je posebno vidljivo na stražnjim sjedalima, koja nude udobnost avionske biznis-klase i kraljevski tretman uz SV Bespoke kožu, osvjetljenje kabine koje se može konfigurirati, zasebne kontrole četverozonskog klima-uređaja, grijanje i hlađenje sjedala. Luksuzno iskustvo upotpunjeno je zasebnim dodirnim zaslonom za kontrolu zabavnog sustava, dok subwoofer i 34 zvučnika sjajnog Meridiana kabinu pretvaraju u audiofilski hram.

Kako je planinski prijelaz Vršič bio zatvoren, drugi dio vožnje obavili smo preko prijelaza Predel, gdje je Range spremno pozirao u društvu snježnih vrhova Julijskih Alpa i elegantno prolazio vijugavu cestu dolinom rijeke Soče, koja prati smaragdnu ljepoticu poput žive razglednice.

Više od pola stoljeća Range Rover ostaje vjeran izvornoj viziji – besprijekornom spoju vrhunskih terenskih sposobnosti i nenadmašnog luksuza, konceptu čije je temelje postavio upravo Land Rover. To je automobil koji će aristokratskom lakoćom ispuniti sve zahtjeve kupaca: od poslovnog putovanja, preko terenskih avantura do svečanog odlaska u operu. Zbog te svestranosti Range Rover opravdano nosi titulu ne samo vrhunskog luksuznog SUV-a, već i vrhunskog luksuznog automobila u cjelini.

'Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.' This is one of the small but important life lessons from 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off,' reminding us of the importance of slowing down and enjoying every moment. In search of the perfect escape, inspired by the spirit of Ferris Bueller's carefree escapism, we traded urban asphalt for Alpine expanse and the Soča valley, accompanied by one of the most iconic cars in history.

Range Rover has always been a car unaffected by trends or the automotive industry’s fast pace. Only five generations have been launched since its debut in 1970, when it laid the foundations of the luxury SUV segment.

Each was carefully designed to preserve the spirit of the original, while at the same time pushing the boundaries of luxury and technology.

In keeping with the rich tradition, the new generation introduces an even more refined and contemporary interpretation of the memorable design. Five key elements remain unchanged: the sloping roofline, the sculpted side body, the split tailgate, the distinctive hood, and the floating roof. It is the subtle refinements and carefully balanced proportions that make this model the most elegant yet, further enhanced by striking vertical taillights. The new Range Rover looks elegant and refined, free from superfluous detail that would spoil the clean design.

The interior exudes the same energy, where the serenity of Zen gardens meets lush materials and advanced technology. While the Autobiography trim level is packed with 'gadgets' such as 3D surround cameras, a ClearSight interior rearview mirror, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, 24-way adjustable heated, cooled and massaging front seats, and a sliding panoramic roof, Range Rover presents them with refined restraint, putting impeccable user comfort first. At the same time, it should be noted that the 'British gentleman' is not afraid of even the most difficult terrains, boasting all-wheel drive, transmission reducer, Terrain Response system, electronic air suspension, cameras for viewing the ground, locking differential, and all-wheel steering that enables great maneuverability considering the car’s dimensions.

The first part of our journey to Kranjska Gora revealed the car’s landyacht nature. Thanks to the dominant position behind the steering wheel, the ride is reminiscent of relaxed sailing on a luxury boat with a diesel engine producing 350 hp, featuring eight speed automatic gearbox.

The silence within the cabin, combined with soft suspension, creates a feeling of isolation from the outside world, particularly in the rear seats, which offer airline business class comfort and a royal treatment with SV Bespoke leather, configurable cabin lighting, separate four-zone climate controls, and heated and cooled seats. The luxurious experience is further enhanced by a dedicated touchscreen for entertainment system control, while the Meridian's superb subwoofer and 34 speakers transform the Range Rover's cabin into an audiophile sanctuary.

As the Vršič Mountain pass was closed, the second part took us via the Predel Pass, where the Range posed with the snowy peaks of the Julian Alps in the background, elegantly traversing the winding road through the Soča River valley, which follows the beautiful emerald river like a living postcard.

For over half a century, the Range Rover has remained true to its original vision – a flawless combination of superior off-road capabilities and unsurpassed luxury, a concept whose foundations were laid by Land Rover itself. It is a car that will fulfill all customer requirements with aristocratic ease: from a business trip, or off-road adventures, to a festive visit to the opera. Thanks to this versatility, the Range Rover rightly holds the title of not only the ultimate high-end SUV, but also the ultimate high-end car altogether.

DESTINATIONS

Otok Pag peti je najveći i obalom najrazvedeniji jadranski otok, poznat po surovom, ali fascinantnom pejzažu. Zbog kamene vizure, koja prekriva čak 86 posto njegove površine, mnogi ga nazivaju Mjesečevim otokom. No, osim golog kamena, Pag ima i zelene oaze, poput šume hrasta medunca, nasada maslina, orintološke vegetacije i prekrasnih prirodnih plaža.

Pag is the fifth largest Adriatic island with a well-indented coastline, famous for its rugged, but fascinating landscape. It is known as the Moon Island because rocks cover up to 86 percent of its surface.

However, with its green oases such as downy oak forests, olive groves, vegetation suitable for bird nesting, and beautiful natural beaches, Pag has plenty more to offer.

SVJEDOCI PROŠLOSTI

WITNESSES OF THE PAST

Oštra klima i specifičan krajolik oblikovali su način života stanovnika otoka, a kao jedan od najupečatljivijih spomenika paške baštine su suhozidi – mreža kamenih ograda koja se proteže u dužini od tisuću kilometara. Nekada su služili kao granice između pašnjaka namijenjenih čuvanju ovaca, a danas su uvršteni na UNESCO-ov popis nematerijalne kulturne baštine čovječanstva.

Na tim pomalo škrtim pašnjacima obitavaju autohtone paške ovce, koje se hrane aromatičnim biljem začinjenim posolicom. Upravo zbog te jedinstvene kombinacije paški sir, skuta i janjetina imaju prepoznatljiv okus i cijenjene su delicije diljem svijeta.

Na sjeveru otoka, u vrtovima lunjskih maslina, rastu divlje masline čija se starost procjenjuje na više od tisuću godina, a na udare podvelebitske bure prilagodili su se i hrast medunac i bijeli grab u rezervatu Dubrava-Hanzina. Pag je također dom triju značajnih močvarnih područja – Kolanjskog blata, Velikog i Malog blata u Povljani te ljekovitog blata Segal.

The harsh climate and unique landscape have shaped the islanders’ way of life, and one of the most impressive monuments of Pag's history are dry stone walls – a network of stone walls that stretches for thousand kilometers. They once served as boundaries between pastures for sheep, and today they are part of the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list.

These somewhat arid pastures are home to indigenous Pag sheep that graze on aromatic herbs covered with traces of sea salt. This unique combination is responsible for the distinctive taste of cheese, cottage cheese and lamb from Pag that are considered delicacies all over the world.

The Lun olive groves in the northern part of the island are home to wild olives, estimated to be more than a thousand years old. The downy oak and the Oriental hornbeam in the Dubrava-Hanzine reserve have also adapted to gusts of bora wind in the Velebit Channel. Pag is also home to three important wetlands: Kolansko Blato, Veliko and Malo Blato in Povljana and Segal, where mud has healing properties.

KAMENI GRAD U samom središtu otoka smjestio se grad Pag, jedan od rijetkih svjetskih gradova koji ima svoj rođendan. Njegovi temelji položeni su 1443. godine, kada je cijeli grad preseljen na novu lokaciju u jednom od najambicioznijih urbanističkih pothvata tadašnje Europe. Danas se grad Pag ponosi svojom kulturnom baštinom, jedinstvenom narodnom nošnjom, paškim sirom i solju.

U obnovljenom prostoru Benediktinskog samostana sv. Margarite čuva se iznimno vrijedan eksponat sakralne umjetnosti – relikvijar s autentičnim trnom s Kristove krune. To je jedini Sveti trn u svijetu, uz Trnovu krunu u pariškoj katedrali Notre-Dame, koji ima potvrdu Vatikana da je autentičan.

STONE TOWN The town of Pag, located in the center of the island, is one of the few in the world that has its own birthday. Its foundations were laid in 1443, when the entire town was moved to a new location in one of Europe’s most ambitious urban planning projects at the time. Today, the town of Pag is proud of its cultural heritage, unique folk costume, Pag cheese and salt.

The renovated Benedictine Convent of St. Margaret holds an extremely valuable exhibit of sacred art – a reliquary holding a tthe Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus. This is the only Holy Thorn in the world apart from the Holy Crown of Thorns at Paris’ Notre Dame whose authenticity was confirmed by the Vatican.

ČIPKARSKA UMJETNOST U gradu Pagu stoljećima se njeguje tradicija izrade čipke, koja je uvrštena na UNESCO-ovu reprezentativnu listu nematerijalne kulturne baštine. Umijeće izrade paške čipke od bijelog konca iziskuje spretnost i dugotrajnu obuku, a kako bi se očuvala tradicija čipkarstva, u gradu djeluje Galerija paške čipke, u čijoj se bogatoj zbirci nalaze čipke različitih povijesnih razdoblja, ali i kreacije novijih datuma.

GRAD SOLI Pag i sol neraskidivo su vezani, a njihova povijest prikazana je na stalnoj izložbi solarstva u Magazinu soli. Nezaboravan doživljaj za posjetitelje predstavljaju i radionice na poljima soli gdje mogu dodirnuti i okusiti sol i solni cvijet, jedan od najcjenjenijih začina na svijetu. Ovi delikatni kristali soli nastaju samo pod posebno mirnim vremenskim uvjetima, kada se na površini bazena soli formira tanka, hrskava korica bogata mineralima koja se pažljivo skuplja ručno. Solni cvijet Solane Pag nosi zaštićenu oznaku izvornosti, što potvrđuje njegovu autentičnost i vrhunsku kvalitetu.

Kao dio nasljeđa otoka Paga, sol

Treba istaknuti kako paška sol ne prolazi nikakvu kemijsku obradu – njezina čistoća i bogatstvo minerala ostaju sačuvani, kako nam ih je podarila priroda.

PAŠKA SIRANA U najstarijoj sirani na otoku posjetitelji mogu otkriti kako se proizvodi najbolji hrvatski sir, ali i jedan od najboljih sireva na svijetu.

ANTIČKO NASLJEĐE O zanimljivoj prošlosti zapadnog dijela otoka svjedoče grad Novalja i okolna mjesta. Jedna od najposjećenijih turističkih atrakcija u Novalji ulaz je u antički vodovod, koji domaće stanovništvo zove Talijanova buža. Vodovod je izgrađen za vrijeme Rimskog Carstva, a služio je za napajanje mjesta vodom iz

PAG NEEDLE-POINT LACE The centuries-old tradition of lacemaking in Pag has been inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Pag lacemaking using white thread requires dexterity and years of training. The Pag Lace Gallery, with a rich collection of lace from different historical periods, as well as newer examples, was established to keep the tradition alive.

TOWN OF SALT Pag has an inextricable bond with salt and this history is shown at the permanent salt exhibition in the salt warehouses. Workshops in salt flats, where visitors can touch and taste salt and flower of salt, a highly sought-after spice, are an unforgettable experience for visitors. These very small salt crystals are created under ideal conditions without precipitation, when a thin, mineral-rich layer of flaky crystals is created and harvested with a traditional hand tool. The salt flower produced at the Pag salt pans bears a protected designation of origin, which proves its authenticity and premium quality.

Salt has been produced using a combination of natural and tech-

nological processes for a long time, with the help of the sun, sea and the wind. Unrefined sea salt is still harvested in the traditional way, bearing an Eco certificate. It should be noted that Pag salt does not undergo chemical processing, which means that it remains pure and filled with minerals, like nature intended.

PAG CHEESE DAIRY The island’s oldest dairy gives visitors the chance to discover how the best cheese in Croatia, but also one of the best in the world, is made. Accompanied by an expert guide, you will find out more about the tradition of Pag cheesemaking and sheep farming, as well as the intertwined history between the island and its cheese. You will also get a chance to taste it in a traditional setting.

ANCIENT HERITAGE The town of Novalja and the surrounding towns bear witness to the interesting past of the western part of the island. One of the most popular tourist attractions in Novalja is the entrance to the ancient aqueduct, which the locals call Talijanova Buža, or ‘The Italian's Hole’.

Nezaobilazna gastronomska oaza otoka Paga je restoran Boškinac, nositelj Michelinove zvjezdice. Kao dio boutique hotela i vinarije, restoran spaja tradiciju i inovaciju, uz korištenje lokalnih sastojaka – od paške janjetine i sireva do svježih plodova mora i začinskog bilja s otoka.

Beritnica, one of the island's most beautiful beaches – which is only accessible on foot or by boat – is located nearby. The famous Life on Mars trekking trail is located near Metajna. Featuring four routes, this trail is intended for everyone wishing to discover the beauty of Pag’s rugged landscape.

Life on Mars II is a new 10.4-kilometer route opened in 2024 connecting Žigljen and Metajna.

Experienced climbers can try the 100-meter long via ferrata connecting the Slana Bay and Cape Sušac. The ferrata is classified as demanding and is intended for

seasoned climbers, with the mandatory use of additional equipment. The Stogaj Rock is a true challenge, featuring almost 70 marked routes. Known for its difficult climbs, it offers a spectacular view of the Pag Bay.

PREMIUM CUISINE Indulging in Pag specialties is the best way to end an active day in nature. In addition to the famous Pag lamb, be sure to try various fish and seafood dishes, such as fish soup, Novalja brodit (fish stew), seafood salads and risotto, and grilled fish.

The island’s Boškinac restaurant, holding a Michelin star, is not to be missed. As part of a boutique hotel and winery, the restaurant combines tradition and innovation, using local ingredients – from Pag lamb and cheeses to fresh seafood and herbs from the island. In addition to fine dining, the restaurant offers premium wines from its own winery, making it a top destination for all lovers of haute cuisine, wine and hedonism.

AN ISLAND OF CONTRAST Pag is an island of contrast – rugged, but fascinating. Its vast cultural heritage, unique landscape and premium cuisine make it an ideal destination all year round.

Ovaj profinjeni restoran, koji se nalazi na slikovitoj šetnici između Grand Park Hotela Rovinj i marine, ima predivan pogled na more i stari grad Rovinj. Maistrin Agli Amici Rovinj prvi je i jedini restoran u Hrvatskoj s dvije Michelinove zvjezdice koji se dvije uzastopne godine našao u Michelinovu vodiču. Dva degustacijska menija koja je osmislio chef Emanuele Scarello, Agli Amici i Istra, dokaz su njegove domišljate kuhinje koja spaja talijansku tradiciju s jedinstvenim okusima istarske zemlje i mora. Konstantna težnja inovacijama i posvećenost najkvalitetnijim regionalnim sastojcima razlog su zbog kojeg je restoran dobio Michelinovu zvjezdicu.

S prekrasne ostakljene terase restorana Cap Aureo, koji se nalazi na petom katu Grand Park Hotela Rovinj, pruža se pogled na marinu i stari grad. Jelovnik chefa Jeffreyja Velle u ovom restoranu s Michelinovom preporukom usredotočen je na jela od povrća napravljena od najboljih lokalnih sastojaka i uparena s pomno odabranim vinima. Meni od 20 sljedova, koji se mijenja svaki mjesec, prilagođen je mikroklimi te slavi sezonske namirnice i istarsku kulinarsku tradiciju. Restoran usko surađuje s odabranim lokalnim proizvođačima i ribarima kako bi osigurao održivost jela kao što su lokalna skuša s listovima korabice i divljom mrkvom. Za potpun ugođaj gosti mogu uživati u iskustvu otvorene kuhinje ili 'chef’s table', gdje se hrana priprema pred njima.

land-art trail, which combines art and nature, the 'Plas' trail, which passes along the top ridge of the mountain, and the 'Slap' walking trail in Lovranska Draga, which leads to a picturesque waterfall.

RICH BIODIVERSITY The Učka Nature Park is home to rare and endangered plant and animal species, such as the Croatian bellflower and the Croatodirus bozicevici leptodirine beetle. Birds of prey – the Eurasian eagle-owl and the golden eagle – have also found refuge in this unique ecosystem.

More than 200 speleological structures, mostly pits, have been recorded in the area, which reinforces the importance of protecting the karst and underground world.

WATER – SOURCE OF LIFE Učka also has numerous sources of drinking water, which supply the area known as Liburnija. Historically, water was a key resource for life in these areas, and the tradition of preserving karst ponds, although neglected today, still plays an important role in the survival of various plant and animal species. The torrential valleys in Učka, such as those in Mošćenička Draga and Medveja, contribute to the hydrological dynamics of the park with their seasonal flows.

GUARDIAN OF HERITAGE In addition to its natural beauty, Učka also boasts a fascinating cultural heritage. For example, the rural settlement of Mala Učka preserves the traditional way of life, while the mythical and historical 'Trebišća-Perun' trail interprets the region’s Slavic mythology, adding another dimension to the cultural heritage. Učka is also known for its gastronomy, which includes specialties made from sweet chestnuts, wild asparagus, and homemade honey brandy.

A visit to the Učka Nature Park is more than just a trip. It is a journey through centuries of natural and human stories woven into every peak, trail, and valley. If you are looking for inspiration, an escape from everyday life, or simply a place where nature tells its story – visit Učka.
