Baza Yacht Description
Experience the perfect blend of comfort and performance aboard the Catamaran BAZA, a Lagoon 560. Crafted for an unforgettable sailing adventure, this catamaran boasts spacious accommodations, top-tier amenities, and breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea.
Owned by the dedicated crew, Zoki and Sanja, BAZA exudes a home-like atmosphere—warm, welcoming, and with meticulous attention to detail. On board, there are three cabins: a Master Cabin and two additional double cabins. Each cabin features a queen-size bed and a private bathroom. BAZA offers ample outdoor space, including day beds on the bow, soft day beds, and cushioned seats on the flybridge, as well as a spacious outdoor dining area. Thanks to its clever design, the Lagoon 560 BAZA provides an exceptional level of comfort and generous living spaces on board.
BAZA is Zoki and Sanja’s second yacht and takes the place of renowned catamaran MALA. BAZA is the accumulation of years of experience, love and passion for a life time of sailing the Adriatic.
Introduced by DMA Yachting, the astonishing charter yacht Baza is a 55 ft sailing catamaran. The most valuable elements of Baza are her impeccable styling and inviting socializing areas. Baza spends the summer and winter season in Croatia. She was delivered by the ship builder Lagoon in 2015. A succesful refit was delivered in 2025. The spacious yacht layout features 3 generous cabins and easily accommodates a maximum of 6 guests.
Baza is introduced primarily as a sailing catamaran. The central space of the yacht is the main saloon, which connects to the aft deck. The aft deck features a variety of seating areas and that's where the guests spend most of their time. The fascinating cabins are located in the 2 massive hulls. The cabins are connected by stairs to the main saloon - roomy, comfortable and pleasant. Multiple portholes provide a connection with the natural world outside.
The sailboat features 2x 110HP 17kva Generator 220l/h Watermaker engines .

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 sailing catamaran like Baza, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€3,522 - €6,164), making the charter cost €21,132 to €23,774. 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.

Reviews
See you next year!
Thank you for making our first visit to Croatia so memorable!!
We truly appreciate you opening your "at sea home" Mala to us. You provided an incredible insight to Croatia that we could never have gained through books and on our own. Your attention to details & thoughtful recommendations every day really made this a very unique experience.
Have fun in the BVIs. I look forward to someday sailing again with you & seeing your cookbook.
Thanks for the memories of a lifetime!
Zoki is a professional captain, a perfectionist who knows the Adriatic like the back of his hand. He is also very knowledgeable about all the wineries in Croatia and gave us great recommendations each day. Sanja does everything other than steer the boat, but she is best known for her wonderful cooking. Every meal on Mala was absolutely delicious despite our long list of likes and dislikes !
Our initial thought was to spend all of our time on the boat or in the water, but Zoki and Sanja convinced us to take a Land-rover excursion on the island of Vis and a bicycle tour of Korcula. We are so glad we did both because they were a lot of fun and we learnt so much about the region’s rich history.
Zoki and Sanja have invested heavily in new technology on Mala. The most impressive benefit to guests is the solar powered battery system that allows the boat to function overnight, including air conditioning, without the need for a noisy generator!
This was our first visit to Croatia, but it won’t be our last! When we do return our first choice will be to do another journey with Zoki and Sanja aboard Mala.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You two are very special people. We hope to return one day for another adventure with you.
Our second sailing with you on Catamaran Mala was even better than the first. Sailing with you will always be one of my favorite adventures. You truly have become family to the Nolas and we are blessed to travel with you. I had no idea if my Dad would enjoy Mala as much as Mom and he instantly fell in love just like us. My one wish every year is to come back and sail with you both. My heart is happy; My soul is content. My belly is full. It is time to go home, but we will see you in September 2024. Until next time, take good care of each other!
You passion for Croatia, the Adriatic, the environment, amazing FOOD are all so clear, what made this trip so special. Each of you add the perfect personalities to make Mala what she is today... a perfect relaxing but FUN experience. Please come visit us in San Diego.
What an amazing time we have had aboard your beautiful catamaran Mala. Essentially you have welcomed us to your second home and allowed me to create chaos in the normal routine. Thank you!
I promise to improve my handling of the main sail in the future. We can't wait to comeback.
Thank you very much for the last seven wonderful days with you!
It was an inspirational experience to see your lovely country from a different perspective and enjoy you and Mala.
There's nothing to say than thank you!!!
You are wonderful hosts, cooks, skippers, mechanics.... Simply very, very nice people.
This week was perfect, amazing, and really exceptional. We appreciated your hospitality and of course your professionalism.
We appreciated you including us into the details of the itinerary at every step and you were able to custom tailor everything for everyone's satisfaction-were the beautiful Mala and both you and Zoki's teamwork to create and adventure cruise of luxury for a lifetime.
Many thank for everything!
Sanja and Zoki are very skilled professional sailors who have thorough local knowledge of the water, the weather and the many islands of Croatia. We always felt safe aboard their beautiful boat.
Every stop on our voyage from Split to Dubrovnik was interesting, fun and delicious thanks to the excellent guides Sanja and Zoki arranged, and thanks to their recommendations for activities and restaurants.
Sanja is a galley magician! Every meal aboard Mala was fantastic! She expertly prepared a wide variety of fresh, delicious dishes, and presented the meals beautifully. We looked forward to see what the magic was for each meal, and we were never disappointed.
We would highly recommend Catamaran Mala. You will see Croatia from a unique perspective unlike any other cruise.
Lisa & Jeff
We, four very demanding Peruvians, were surprised of being surprised every single time by a very high standard of service and by a unique and impeccable experience.
It will be very difficult to top this holiday 😉.
Immensely grateful to you: Sanja and Zoki"
Thanks a lot @catamaranmala ...it exceeded our expectations...in one word: SPECTACULAR!!!
Sanja and Zoki you are just wonderful, your boat is amazing, the food was delicious, the islands we went to were incredible...we had the best time ever and we really enjoyed the experience of sailing with you!
Thank you so much for everything! Hope to see you next year!
1. Ownership. Zoki and Sanja own Catamaran Mala, so they are as invested as can be in making sure that every detail of the experience is the best that it can be. In most situations, a Captain and Hostess are hired to work a boat. That is not the case here. Catamaran Mala is their business and their baby, and you can truly feel that they have put their full selves into making the experience as great as possible for guests.
2. Experience & Chemistry. Along with having several decades of experience on the sea and working with guests between them, Zoki and Sanja have great chemistry as Captain and Hostess (and as a couple themselves!). That chemistry creates a beautiful energy aboard Catamaran Mala, whether you're relaxing during quiet times, asking Zoki questions about the islands and their history, or having a lively chat with Sanja, whose energy and humor will always put you in a great mood. They strike the perfect balance of giving you space, being your guides, and being your friends.
3. Space, Quality & Food. Whereas similarly sized vessels are often built to cramp as many people as possible onboard, Catamaran Mala is a very comfortable space. That might mean one or two fewer rooms, but it's well worth it if you have the right party size. The boat is in excellent condition, all of your needs are accounted for onboard, and Sanja is an unbelievable chef. Our freshest and most memorable meals came on Catamaran Mala rather than on restaurants on land.
4. Flexibility & Customization. Zoki and Sanja have thought of everything you might want or need, including snorkels, water tubes, water skis, paddle boards, and even a full-size BBQ (to prepare whatever you'd like), electric bikes (for on-land exploration), and an outdoor movie projector (this was super unique... check out the photos on their Instagram page). They are super accommodating and flexible, and they will customize every bit of the experience to your preference.
For all of these reasons and more, we offer Zoki, Sanja and Catamaran Mala our highest possible endorsement. It was an amazing experience and we hope to join them again one day!"
