Step Two Motor Yacht

A 25-knot cruise and 34 knots at full throttle give Step Two the pace to move on to a different bay without spending half the day getting there. She is a 40ft (12m) motor yacht built by Bavaria Yachts in 2020.

Water toys

A 13ft tender travels with her for going ashore from an anchorage, and snorkelling gear is kept on board, so a swim off the boat can turn into a look at what lies beneath it.

Where she cruises

Dubrovnik in Croatia is her home port, and her cruising takes in Croatia and neighbouring Montenegro, two countries of coastline to work along rather than a single stretch of it.

Accommodation and crew

Two cabins, each with a double bed, sleep four guests overnight, which divides evenly between two couples, and her peak falls in July and August. Step Two is run by a single crew member.

On deck

The swim platform keeps the sea within easy reach, which makes going in and coming back aboard a simple matter. Air conditioning cools the cabins and Wi-Fi reaches across the boat.

Charter notes

Two couples make her natural charter party, and with up to ten on board by day, a hire can take in more company than stays the night.
