CAPTAIN - DRAŽEN ERCEGOVIĆ
Dražen has been a captain since 2006, amassing extensive experience in maritime operations. He owns the yacht Alfa Mario, a vessel named in honor of his father. Hailing from a family deeply rooted in shipbuilding, Dražen is part of a lineage with a longstanding tradition in the industry. His family oversees a fleet of yachts, manages a hotel, and operates a shipyard, further contributing to their prominent presence in the maritime domain.
During his downtime, Dražen enjoys going for a swim and rowing. In 2020, he swam across the Brač channel between the island of Brač and his hometown, Krilo, taking him 3 hours and 20 minutes.
Testimonial:
We had a really great week on Alfa Mario, a super nice yacht with very comfortable and spacious cabins. The crew provided great service and was very nice and engaged—also with the small children. Food and wine were high-level, much appreciated by all, and professionally served—also including the bar-tendering—even late at night. M. K.

When on the sea, as a big fan of fishing, there is always fresh fish on his menu.

What are "Med Rates" or "Med Terms?"
Med Term pricing is cost (cost of the boat) + VAT (country tax) + APA (operating and provisioning expenses). The cost is the weekly rate for the charter. The VAT and APA are calculated on the cost of the boat and paid in addition to that base price. The APA covers: fuel, water, food, licenses, alcohol, and any specific items you would like provided to you. APA money that is not used for provisioning would be reimbursed to you- or, if you spend over the amount, they would charge you. The Captain keeps track of expenses and would let you know if you’re reaching your APA limit. This is the industry standard for the region.
Caribbean Terms or Caribbean Inclusions refer to all-inclusive rates. These boats are typically catamarans and monohulls and are found in the Caribbean.
Most (but not all) motor-yachts and sailing vessels in the Med are Med Rate terms.
