About this boat

Discover the Fjera, a captivating wooden ship built in 1938 in Senj, now available for charter in Split. This historic vessel offers a unique experience with a rich heritage, combining classic craftsmanship with modern comfort after a refit in 2015.

The Fjera measures 18.4 meters (approx. 60ft) and is powered by a 173hp engine, ensuring smooth navigation along the Croatian coast. While listed as 65ft in some records, the verified technical data confirms 18.4m, accommodating up to 80 guests comfortably.

Traditional wooden boat Fjera was built in 1938 and after many years of carrying cargo, new life was given to her when she was refitted in 2018. Since then Fjera only carries guests bringing smile on their faces. A dream come true to an old lady Fjera. 😊

This exquisite and charming little boat is big enough to be able to take up to 82 passengers, but also compact enough to fit in any little secluded bay in Split and surrounding islands area. 

You can rent Fjera for groups such as:

  • Fish picnic day charter
  • City panorama and sunset cruise
  • Wedding party
  • Bachelors or bachelorette party
  • Birthday party
  • Corporate team building
  • Booze and cruise – foam and champagne party

 

Fjera comes with the full crew – captain + 1 or 2 sailors (depending on the group size) who will do everything to make your stay fun and memorable (you do not need to have any licence on your own). You can rent Fjera on minimum one day rental period; check in is at 9:00h and the checkout is at 19:00h – so you get to enjoy your stay the full 10 hours!! 

Rental price also includes fuel for up to 5 hours cruising – that is the range of 15Nm from Split and back. When you charter the boat for yourself we will take you to places where there is no crowd and you can enjoy in clean and crystal clear sea weather you want to visit island of Brac, Solta or Ciovo. Check out places like uvala Livka (bay Livka) or uvala Stračinska (bay Stračinska) on the island of Solta, or let us take you explore the bays around the village Milna on the island of Brac – uvala Stiniva (bay Stiniva) or uvala Zavraće (bay Zavraće).

Food options can be arranged if you inform us on time so we can contact our suppliers based on your preference – food supplement is 12eur per person. 

Fjera is 20 meters long (65 feet) and 5 meters wide (16 feet) and has a draught of 2 meters (7 feet). There is a perky little red Scania engine with 230 horse power that pushes Fjera to cruising speed of 7 knots and max speed of 8 knots. There are 2 toilets for the guests.

The charter rate includes: usage of the boat + crew, fuel, port fees, passenger insurance and VAT.
