A crew concludes a week-long charter in Croatia aboard a Beneteau First 53, a performance yacht they favor over previous Dufour models for its interior space and lack of structural creaking.12:25 During the final day, the boat reaches speeds of eight to nine knots while heeled 25 degrees in winds exceeding 20 knots, necessitating a reef.4:44 The crew stops in Milna for lunch, side-tying to another vessel in their flotilla to avoid a crowded town dock.2:04 Upon returning to the marina, they navigate a busy fuel dock with approximately 20 other boats before med-mooring into their assigned slip.6:40 The charter concludes with the crew tidying the vessel and preparing for travel.12:14 The owner notes a preference for a dual-line mainsheet system for better sail shape control and suggests the addition of a stern seating area for monitoring the boat while underway.13:20 The crew prepares to take delivery of a new Island Spirit 525E catamaran equipped with electric motors.13:31
