Yacht Description
Catamaran space, actually. COOL CHANGE is a 2015 Lagoon 560 sailing catamaran (refit 2021) that sleeps 8 guests in 4 en-suite suites, with the wide-beam layout that keeps groups from living on top of each other.
Easy deck-to-sea flow. The main aft deck sets up for long lunches and lounging, with steps down on both sides to the water-edge platforms. Quick swims. Faster repeats.
Sun spots for everyone. Up front you get a large sunpad that converts to a lounge and can be shaded by a soft bimini, plus two forward trampolines for the classic “over-the-water” hangout.
Water time is covered. For toys, COOL CHANGE carries a tender with 50 HP, snorkel gear, two stand up paddleboards, a wakeboard, adult waterskis, and a donut, so you can rotate through activities without turning it into a committee meeting.

COOL CHANGE
An unforgettable week on board!
An unforgettable week on board!
We had the most incredible 7-day catamaran experience in Cool Change!! A trip we will never forget! We went with my parents and enjoyed every moment to the fullest. The places we visited were absolutely dreamy, each more beautiful than the last.
Captain Jure was always kind, attentive, and fun, making sure everything ran smoothly and that we felt safe and relaxed. And a very special mention goes to Larry, our amazing chef! Every meal he prepared was delicious, beautifully presented, and made with so much care and love. He was always thoughtful and attentive to anything we might need.
We also had a blast doing water sports and sharing great laughs with Jure and Larry, who brought so much joy and good energy on board.
It was a week of total relaxation, fun, and unforgettable memories. We carry this experience in our hearts. Thank you for everything!

'The perfect place with the perfect crew.'
Cool Change Catamaran Charter from Dubrovnik to Split was one of our very best vacations we have ever done. We really had no idea what to expect as we have never done a charter cruise. We are not fans of big Cruise ships, one and done so we were excited but also unsure of how it would go. We loved every second of it. From the start before we left we had great communication with our Captain Nikola. He was very helpful and easy to talk to. We had spoken a few times with him and we felt so at ease with everything he was planning for us. Once we got on the boat we immediately felt like we were home. The perfect place with the perfect crew. Nikola and our fun and incredible chef/helper Larry was out of this world. Every meal was delicious and his spirit was super positive making our adventure even better! We meshed so well and felt like both were part of our family. Truly can’t say enough about our experience. It was truly AMAZING and AWESOME!!! Thank you to Nikola who kept us safe and took us to beautiful coves and places where the weather was best. And Thank you to Larry for all the incredible meals and conversation. We consider you both family and welcome you to come for a visit anytime.

'Jure was a wonderful skipper who was so proud of his boat and loved showing us around his homeland.'
We took our children to Croatia for a boating experience on Cool Change. We had the most amazing time sailing the beautiful islands near Split. The boat was perfectly set up for 8 of us and Jure was a wonderful skipper who was so proud of his boat and loved showing us around his homeland. He was so knowledgeable of the area and a brilliant skipper. Larry was the best cook ever! The food that came out of that kitchen was so delicious and Larry’s fun personality and love of music always entertained us! We can highly recommend this fabulous boat if you want a brilliant Croatian boating experience. Thanks guys!

The boat was very spacious with a great layout allowing plenty of space. The boat is also impeccably maintained- which was well appreciated!
Capt Jure and chef Larry are two of the best.

"There were 8 of us on our trip and everyone said it was the most amazing experience of adventure and luxury sailing. "
The Cool Change.. our most amazing adventure! The catamaran, captain and crew are exemplary!!! From the very beginning of planning our 7-day trip around the Dalmatian islands, Nikola's communication exceeded expectations, from timeliness, to detail and execution of questions. There were 8 of us on our trip and everyone said it was the most amazing experience of adventure and luxury sailing. When we arrived in Croatia, Nikola organized our transportation to the Cool Change catamaran. We were greeted by a spotless boat, delicious food by our chef, Larry and crew. The cabins were comfortable and clean and a pleasure to be in while sailing or anchored in a beautiful bay.. service, accommodation, cuisine, expert captain guidance, skills, history, discussion and education about the area to luxury sailing and five star restaurants . All this, and we never had to leave the ship! Recommend Cool Change and this amazing captain and crew to anyone interested in a sea adventure in the beautiful Adriatic.

'Croatia is exceptionally beautiful, but what made the trip so incredible were Captain Josip and Chef Larry.'
We have just returned from spending a spectacular week on Cool Change. Our family (including 3 teens, ages 15, 17 and 19) is lucky to be in a position to travel quite frequently, and we have been spoiled with some memorable and luxurious vacations over the years. We are in agreement that our week on Cool Change topped all of them. Croatia is exceptionally beautiful, but what made the trip so incredible were Captain Josip and Chef Larry. I do not exaggerate when I say I was in tears when it was time to say goodbye.
Our week was the perfect balance of family bonding mixed with time spent getting to know these lovely humans. Josip and Larry chatted with us in the mornings over a cup of coffee, took our kids water skiing, found private coves in the clearest waters for swimming and snorkeling. Larry cooked the most delicious regional food that even our picky kids enjoyed.
The boat is in excellent condition- sparkling clean, comfortable, and well organized. We had plenty of space to spread out- indoors and out.
Josip and his brothers clearly have such pride of ownership and it permeates the entire experience.
I can’t recommend this catamaran highly enough. You will not be disappointed!

'There was never a dull moment, an empty glass, an unanswered question, or a pang of hunger for our group of eight adults.'
The trip of a lifetime! Just book it...you won't regret it!
We just returned from a fabulous week on board the Cool Change Catamaran enjoying every minute with our unforgettable crew Nikola and Larry. There was never a dull moment, an empty glass, an unanswered question, or a pang of hunger for our group of eight adults. The food was lovingly prepared to our various tastes by the sweetest chef, Larry, who managed to blow us away with every single meal served with a smile. Our Captain and boat owner, Nikola, is such an experienced and accomplished sailor that we were 100% comfortable in his ability to provide a safe and comfortable week of sailing around the Dalmatian Coast. The boat is clean and in great shape. The crew worked tirelessly to ensure our group enjoyed every minute of a real vacation on this beautiful catamaran large enough to allow plenty of togetherness and plenty of personal space. We would do it all over again!
