So... Who's been to Split?

[WTFH]

I was lucky enough to be invited onto a 55ft Benetau Oceanis for a week. Learned a bit about sailing and mooched around places like Krka, Prvic and one I cannot for the life of me remember.
I thought all the Marina's were called Marina ;-)

Beautiful clear waters, lovely sunshine, friendly people, great food - not to mention some local ladies who (if I was single) were way out of my league

Hope to go back there soon...

55ft - nice. very stable and with a decent turn of speed. So you stayed north - probably out to Kaprije, Kakan and Zirje. Lots of deserted bays to weigh anchor.
We normally go for 36ft, although the last time I was sailing was around the Virgin Islands on a 42ft cat...

Cat sailing I could definitely do again, you can set your beer down on a table, hoist the spinnaker and be doing 20kts without spilling a drop.

We picked ours up at a marina called Marina. Island hopped our way out to Bisevo. I think Vis was my favourite island we stopped at.

Were you bare boat or flotilla? Where did you go?

Funnily enough that is exactly what I did.. From Vodice.. Really beautiful place.

'Going to Spilt' is the old man's way of describing a dockside workplace injury that requires reconstructive colorectal surgery.

I thought you'd had a zip installed?

Flew in and out a few years ago, but that was just to pick up a yacht along the coast from there and head out to do some island hopping.

I have been. For my tenth birthday.

I think it has changed a bit. Not least by Yugoslavia breaking up.

Heading over there for a much needed holiday in a couple of days.
Anyone got any particular recommendations as well as what is on t'internet?
Particularly looking for good pubs, family restaurants serving local dishes and being a northerner, I don't want to break the bank....

Some good casino's with big tournaments on and regular high stake cash tables so take your shades and baseball flat cap.
