Alessandro I Motor Sailer

Based in Dubrovnik, Croatia, the 131ft (40m) motor sailer Alessandro I was built by Ruth Yachting in 2011. She features 5 cabins – 1 King, 2 Queen and 2 Twin – for 10 guests, with day capacity for 12. A crew of 6 combines sailing expertise with deep local knowledge of Croatia’s coastline.

Sailing from Dubrovnik

There is a particular rhythm to sailing from Dubrovnik – the morning breeze filling the canvas, the quiet of moving along the coastline under sail, the satisfaction of arriving at anchor in a sheltered bay. Alessandro I cruises at 9 knots and features a deck jacuzzi and a swim platform. The crew knows the best anchorages, the sheltered bays, and the coastal tavernas that make this corner of Mediterranean so rewarding to explore by boat.

On the Water

12 water toys including a jet ski, a Seabob, five SUP boards, water skis, a wakeboard, a canoe, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear and a Beach Tender provide plenty of variety at each stop. The crew manages everything, leaving guests free to enjoy the sailing and the scenery.

Chartering in Croatia

Operating from Dubrovnik, Alessandro I covers the best of Croatia. The recommended months are Jul, Aug, when winds are steady and waters warm. Her captain’s local expertise means every itinerary uncovers spots that most visitors never see – quiet bays, local harbours, and waterfront dining with views that reward the journey.
