Planning a sailing holiday in Croatia means choosing more than just a destination – it means choosing the right yacht, the right starting point, and the right people behind the service.

Our Elan 40 Impression “Happy” offers all of that: a beautifully equipped sailing yacht, an ideal base in Split, professional charter support, and one of the best price–quality ratios on the Croatian charter market.

A Sailing Yacht with a Personal Touch

What sets Happy apart from many standard charter yachts is her carefully selected equipment and tasteful interior design.

She is not overloaded or impersonal – instead, Happy feels warm, clean, and thoughtfully arranged, creating a relaxed onboard atmosphere from the moment you step on deck.

Guests especially appreciate:

• the bright and welcoming saloon
• practical, high-quality onboard equipment
• attention to comfort and functionality
• a layout that truly feels like a floating holiday home

The yacht is equipped with air conditioning in the saloon (cooling & heating) and solar panels, allowing comfortable stays on board and quiet nights at anchor without unnecessary noise.

The Elan 40 Impression “Happy” is a three-cabin sailing yacht designed to comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests, making it an ideal choice for families, couples, or small groups planning a private sailing holiday in Croatia.

With three comfortable cabins and additional berths in the saloon, the yacht offers both privacy and flexibility, ensuring a relaxed onboard experience without overcrowding.

The Perfect Starting Point – Sailing from Split

Happy is based in ACI Marina Split, one of the best departure points for yacht charter in Croatia.

This central location allows easy access to some of the most beautiful sailing areas in the Adriatic, including Brač, Hvar, Vis, Šolta and nearby hidden bays that are perfect for swimming, relaxing, and enjoying local cuisine.

Starting your sailing holiday from Split means:

• shorter distances between islands
• flexible route planning
• easy arrival by plane or ferry
• more time to enjoy the sea

Comfortable Layout for Relaxed Sailing Holidays

The Elan 40 Impression is well known for its generous interior and smart use of space, making it ideal for families, couples, and small groups.

On board you will find:

• 3 comfortable cabins + saloon
• 2 bathrooms with WC and shower
• 8 berths (6 + 2)
• spacious cockpit for outdoor living and dining

Whether you prefer privacy or shared moments with friends and family, Happy adapts easily to your sailing rhythm.

Reliable Performance and Easy Handling

With a length of 11.90 m, beam of 3.91 m, and draught of 1.80 m, Happy offers excellent stability and smooth handling under sail.

She is powered by a Volvo D2-40F engine and equipped with a full batten mainsail and furling genoa, ensuring a safe and enjoyable sailing experience for both experienced sailors and guests who prefer calm, stress-free cruising.
