LIFE IS GOOD Yacht Description
-
Jet Ski - Yamaha (1 available):
Exclusive for a sailing yacht; perfect for guest thrill and exploring secluded coves. -
Jacuzzi on sun deck:
Oversized hot tub for up to 8 guests, perfect for cocktail sunsets and romantic relaxation. -
SeaBob seascooter:
Premium Seabob for underwater fun and exploring marine life with ease and style.
Start at the top: a vast sun deck with an oversize deck jacuzzi, full cocktail bar and multiple circular lounges. This is the “headquarters” of LIFE IS GOOD – a 45m custom sailing yacht (2022, refit 2023) built for guests who actually use the boat, not just photograph it.
Sleep stats: up to 14 guests in 7 suites, including two full‑beam master staterooms with walk‑in wardrobes and large ensuites. Cabins are big by any standard, with flexible VIPs that convert to twins to suit mixed groups, families or the inevitable “friend who brings kids.”
Hardware for humans: a serious hydraulic beach club / swim platform that drops you straight onto the water, backed by a 6.5m tender, Yamaha jet‑ski, Seabob, paddleboards, kayak, wakeboard, adult and kids’ water‑skis, fishing gear, snorkelling gear, inflatables and the option to add e‑foil and Manta 5 water bike. Translation: nobody is bored unless they choose to be.
Interior reality: contemporary design with some unapologetic flex – think Swarovski‑crystal dining table and feature walls, starry‑sky lighting over the master bed, high‑tech music system and retractable sports screens in the saloon. Every cabin has its own ensuite and TV, with full AC and Wi‑Fi throughout, so screens and streaming are handled.
Service layer: an 8‑person professional crew including an award‑winning chef, dedicated barman and experienced captain. This is a yacht set up for serious dining (chef’s tasting menus, local produce, real pastry work) and proper bar service, not “warm prosecco in plastic.”
Why pick LIFE IS GOOD over yet another white boat: dual full‑beam masters, a genuinely usable deck jacuzzi zone, a big‑boy beach club platform, a deep toy list, and a design brief that clearly assumed guests would charter in groups of adults and families who want space, privacy and strong food & drink. If you want a modern 147ft sailing yacht that behaves like a small boutique hotel with its own waterpark, this is it.

Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a sailboat like LIFE IS GOOD, the expected APA is 15% to 30% of the charter price (€9,773 - €19,545), making the charter cost €74,923 to €84,695. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.

Captain: Filip Brekalo
Filip runs this big, slick sail yacht like a tight coastal operation, reading Dalmatian waters fast and giving guests clean, confident passages and shore runs without drama. He stays low‑key on deck, but behind that quiet stance is a captain who knows how to line up the right anchorage, the right timing, and the right mood for every day on board.
- Captain, Life is Good (45m), overseeing charters across Croatia and Greece.
- Holds Yacht Master license.
- Fluent in English, Croatian, and Spanish.
Strahinje and Dalibor turn local Adriatic produce into sharp, precise plates, so guests eat like they’re in the best restaurant in port even when the yacht is alone in a quiet bay. Their cooking is disciplined but never stiff, dialling menus to each group, from clean, light lunches between swims to full multi‑course dinners with serious wine.
- Strahinje: Graduate of Hotel Management School Serbia.
- Strahinje: Former head chef at a leading Serbian restaurant and major hotel brands.
- Dalibor: Top‑tier Serbian chef who frequently cooks for the President of Serbia.
- Strong focus on organic products and local market sourcing throughout the charter.
Zaklina moves guests through Croatia like a local fixer, lining up hidden bays, quiet villages, and sharp service on board so every day feels curated, not scripted. She reads the room fast and adjusts the pace, from crisp, formal nights around the crystal‑lit table to barefoot, easy lunches on the swim platform.
- Background with the regional tourism board in Croatia.
- Deep destination knowledge of the Croatian coast and islands.
Ivan keeps the bar running like a tight little show, pushing out sharp cocktails and easy, fast service so sundowners on deck feel like the best bar in town followed the yacht from port to port. He’s quick to read what each group likes, then builds a quiet rhythm of drinks that fits the night without ever feeling scripted.
- Degree in Travel and Hospitality.
- Experience in top bars and cafés along the Adriatic coast.
- International bar experience in Los Angeles.
