45 Degrees Sailing We are passionate about helping others come to Croatia for an amazing sailing adventure I fell in love with the thrill immediately. It just made sense.

My name is Nick Hathaway and I was born to sail, although I did not discover this until my twenties! My first sailing experience was being thrown on to the bow of a 35ft racing yacht in the Bay Of Islands for one of the biggest racing weeks of the year in New Zealand. Since then my life has revolved around sailing. I started sailing seriously a year later when I traded in the power boat and bought my first yacht. From there I threw myself into racing and sailing whenever I could. I met my partner in crime Candyce (she also goes by Mahina) and the only way she could spend time with me was to jump on board! So she did. Which was no mean feat for this fresh water girl from Taupo. She was hesitant at first, getting used to the ropes (literally). It was a steep learning curve! We began racing our 26ft Gazelle with my father, and we both caught the sailing 'bug'. Now sailing is a way of life. For both of us. It's our business and it's our pleasure. We use it for team building, holidays, family get togethers... You name it, we can incorporate sailing into it! We have sailed extensively in the Lesser Antilles of the Caribbean, throughout New Zealand and have spent a year getting to know Sydney Harbour. And we want you to come sailing with us. Whether its casual cruising as a family, an exotic holiday spent sunning yourself or an action packed race training experience, we want to get you hooked! Come sailing with us and see for yourself!

JUST BOOKED - A family sailing adventure is on the calendar for June 2027!

Noah and his family of four have chosen catamaran "Manaphy" for their week exploring Croatia with our 45D crew.

With two children, who love swimming and water activities, we're expecting plenty of time in the sea, discovering new bays and enjoying everything that comes with life onboard.

A great choice for a family holiday, and we're looking forward to welcoming them to Croatia!

Could you see your family enjoying a week like this?

SHARPEN UP GREECE FLOTILLA

DAY ONE

We were well looked after by the Nisos Charter team. From simultaneous check-in’s from their fab techs, to having their favourite supermarket open just for us to provision (and having our provisions delivered right to the boats!), we were certainly in good hands!

After a short sail down to Meganisi, we headed into the port of Vathy with thunder rolling and rain at our rear.

All of our crew’s did an awesome job of their first true med-mooring and we are now all nestled in at Vathy listening to the rain on our bimini’s with the sun still trying to peek through.

So, who's got the right idea?

A) Nick: Deep in thought. Possibly planning tomorrow's route. Possibly wondering where the next gin is coming from (note glass is empty)!

B) Niko: Taking quality control VERY seriously. Not a drop wasted!

C) Wallace: Not a worry in the world. Clearly mastered the art of Greek island life!

Three sailors.
Three very different approaches to flotilla preparation. 😂

Which one are you A, B or C?
