THE FUSE

If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up on a sailboat rocking gently on crystal-clear water in your own secluded Mediterranean cove, free to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee and a morning swim far from the hustle and bustle of overloaded cruise ships, you’re probably ready to charter a private sailboat in the Dalmatian Archipelago. As my family recently discovered, even if you’re not an experienced sailor or a celebrity awash in mega-yacht cash, a dream vacation sailing in Croatia is easier to take than you might think.
