Accommodation
NAUTILUS accommodates up to 16 guests in 8 en-suite Double cabins. This unusually straightforward cabin configuration is particularly attractive for groups of couples, adult families and larger private groups who want equal-style accommodation throughout the yacht.
8 Double Cabins
All eight guest cabins feature Double beds, making NAUTILUS one of the more practical Croatian gulets for groups travelling with multiple couples.
Private En-Suite Bathrooms
Each cabin has a private bathroom with enclosed shower, together with storage, reading lights and individual guest amenities.
Air-Conditioned Comfort
Guest cabins are individually air conditioned, with current published charter terms allowing approximately 12 hours of air-conditioning use per day.
Living Areas & Onboard Comfort
NAUTILUS offers substantial communal space for sixteen guests. The aft deck provides the main shaded dining and relaxation area, while the forward deck combines a large sunbathing zone, additional seating and the yacht’s Jacuzzi.
Refitted for Modern Croatia Charters
NAUTILUS was originally built in 1998 and has undergone several significant renovation periods during her charter career. Current specialist records report the latest substantial refurbishment in 2024.
The updates have focused on maintaining guest accommodation, bathrooms, deck areas, onboard systems and charter amenities while preserving the traditional character of the yacht.
This continuing programme of improvement is especially important for a high-capacity charter gulet that remains active throughout the Croatian summer season.
Jacuzzi & Expansive Foredeck
One of NAUTILUS’ signature features is the large Jacuzzi positioned on the forward deck. Together with extensive sun mattresses and forward seating, it creates a dedicated relaxation area for guests during long afternoons at anchor.
For a group of sixteen, the amount of open deck space is an important advantage. Guests can spread between the Jacuzzi, sunbathing area, forward lounge and shaded aft deck without concentrating everyone in a single social space.
Relaxed Adriatic Cruising
NAUTILUS is powered by a Caterpillar diesel engine producing approximately 540 HP. Her operating profile is designed around comfortable island-hopping rather than high-speed passages.
A typical cruising speed of approximately 8 knots is well suited to the relatively short distances between Croatia’s main islands, allowing itineraries to prioritise swimming stops, dining and time ashore.
Tender & Water Toys
NAUTILUS carries a varied leisure package designed to provide enough activities for larger charter groups.
Large Tender
A large tender is carried for guest transfers and support of tender-operated water sports.
2 Underwater Scooters
Two underwater scooters provide an entertaining way to explore the clear water around Croatian bays and anchorages.
2 Paddleboards
Two stand-up paddleboards provide a quieter option for exploring sheltered bays and nearby beaches.
2 Kayaks
Two kayaks allow guests to explore the coastline and quiet anchorages independently.
Water Ski & Towables
Adult water skis
Inflatable towables
Floating mats
Snorkelling & Fishing
Snorkelling equipment
Fishing equipment
Inflatable canoe
Water-toy inventories may change between charter periods. Jet Ski, SeaBob, E-Foil and other powered toys may be available by arrangement but should not be considered part of the standard inventory unless confirmed for the selected charter.
