Description

Ravni Žakan, located within the Kornati Islands National Park, is a particularly beautiful island to visit. In the bay to the southwest, across from the historic restaurant—the largest in the archipelago—there are mooring buoys and a pier with boat slips. Additional amenities include a convenience store and electricity; the water depth ranges from 4 meters at the head of the pier down to 1.6 meters. Furthermore, Ravni Žakan, along with Stiniva, Statival, Lupeška, Tomasovac, Špinate, Lučica, Kravjačica, Strižnja, Vruje, Gujak, Opat, Smokvica, Ravni Žakan, Lavsa, Piškera, as well as in the bays of Anica and Levrnaca, is the only anchorage where, in addition to anchoring, overnight stays are permitted within the Park. Safe anchorages thanks to the sandy/muddy seabed that holds well, and crystal-clear waters where you simply can’t resist taking a dip. Ravni Žakan is located on the outermost edge of the park and is a good spot for your first stop and to begin your visit; the bay is not as crowded as the more inland ones. It is recommended to purchase park admission tickets in advance online at kornati.hr, as buying them at the various sales points is more expensive. At the harbor, you’ll find the information desk and ticket office, where you can also apply for fishing and diving permits.

Some important rules for diving:

  • it is possible to dive only with organized groups and guide
  • it is forbidden to touch anything or even worse to take it
  • it is possible to reach a maximum depth of 40 meters
  • diving is prohibited at night (7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.)

Some prices per day (2015):

boat length up to 11 meters: 150 kuna

boat length between 11 and 18 meters: 250 kuna

boat length between 18 and 25 meters: 450 kuna

Daily rates are lower if you purchase a longer-term ticket (three or five days). The park is open year-round, lies 190 nautical miles from Trieste, and comprises 89 islands and a total of 238 kilometers of coastline; the average temperature in August is 25 degrees, and there are 2,700 hours of sunshine per year. Clearly, this is one of the most beautiful areas of Dalmatia and probably the best-preserved, where sustainability is one of the park’s top priorities; there are no hotels or tourist facilities here, just a few fishermen’s cottages at most. That’s why the archipelago is one of the most popular destinations for boaters, who are free to sail throughout it, taking care only to avoid certain protected areas.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! yachtdigest.com is in fact the largest online portal on recreational boating and in this section you will be able to write your ad for free if you want to sell your boat. Adding a new sales message is very simple and intuitive as is finding a boat you are interested in buying, but to make your listing even more appealing, we want to give you some general but important pointers that you can follow if you wish.

First of all, try to personalize your ad, describing the history of the boat and perhaps the reason why you are selling it, this way you will gain more trust from the reader.

You can call it “half-new” if it is almost new, or “used” by specifying whether or not it is in good condition. It indicates the condition of the engines, the year of registration, how many owners it has had-most importantly, it indicates whether the boat has been owned by a single owner: it increases interest to those reading the ad.

The goodness of your craft must shine through in your message, because before you can convince someone, you yourself must be convinced that the product is good.

It is important that no spelling errors are made in the advertisement, so reread the message well before putting it online. The language then must be clear and simple, understandable to all.

It serves to attract interest and induce the reader to continue reading; it is the most important part and should summarize in one line the whole message we want to give. Unfortunately, you don’t have much chance to stand out much except with something really original to attract attention. So focus on truly original details of the boat, its real qualities: in the yachtdigest.com portal this brief summary will appear by hovering over the picture of the boat with the mouse.

It is important to clearly include the general record of the vessel. Always enter: shipyard, model, length, width, draft, engines, number of cabins, year of construction, price.

In the boat sheet accurately enter all boat details, standard and extra equipment. It is useful to communicate many details and details for those who are really interested and will continue reading beyond the first few lines.

Suggest to the reader who wants to buy the best features of your craft, and do not indicate-unless it is necessary to inform the buyer in advance-information that might negatively influence the reader.

Always indicate the price. Unless you absolutely do not want to deal, we recommend adding the words “price negotiable” which gives an incentive for the buyer to contact you.
