Here’s about us, a couple who’s passionate about sailing and blessed to live their dream together:
Welcome to my world of wind and waves! I'm Dino Jurela, a proud native of Split, a coastal gem nestled along the Adriatic shores. From the moment I could walk, I was drawn to the sea, captivated by its endless expanse and boundless possibilities.
My journey as a sailor began at the tender age of 8, and since then, I've navigated every imaginable vessel, from nimble dinghies to majestic yachts, honing my skills amidst the exhilarating backdrop of regattas. Embracing the rhythm of the sea, I've spent the past several years sharing my passion with others in the charter boat industry, offering unforgettable experiences amidst the sun-drenched splendor of the Croatian coastline.
But my love for the sea extends beyond the waves. During the offseason, you'll find me immersed in the world of carbon composites, crafting boats and windfoiling gear with meticulous care and craftsmanship. And when I'm not hard at work, I'm out on the water, indulging in my other great passion - windfoiling - a pursuit that fuels my spirit and invigorates my soul.
As a true son of the Adriatic, I've charted every hidden cove and secret bay along the Dalmatian coastline, each one holding its own tale of history and beauty. Whether you're seeking serenity in secluded waters or yearning to explore the vibrant culture of our coastal villages, I'm here to be your guide, sharing insider knowledge and local secrets to ensure your journey is nothing short of extraordinary.
Hi, I’m Marlies Koessler, welcome to my journey – from land to sea, from business to passion.
Born in Austria and raised far from the coast, the allure of the sea has always held a special place in my heart. Childhood summers spent on the shores of Croatia ignited a lifelong fascination with the ocean and the adventures it offers.
My career began in the automotive industry, where I immersed myself in the world of handcrafted cars, particularly the iconic brand, Morgan. For over two decades, I navigated the intricacies of this fascinating industry, but my true calling lay beyond the confines of office walls.
Fuelled by my love for travel and the open road, the idea blossomed to combine my expertise in automobiles with my passion for exploration. Thus, in 1999, "Morgan on Tour" was born, offering unforgettable journeys across Europe in these distinctive convertibles.
However, it was a pivotal moment in 2012 that forever altered my trajectory. The inaugural "Morgan goes Sailing" tour beckoned me to the azure waters of Dalmatia. Living aboard a sailing vessel amidst the breathtaking scenery, I found myself profoundly transformed. This experience not only became my most cherished memory but also served as the catalyst for a bold new chapter in my life.
In 2021, I made the leap to Split, Croatia, embracing a life where the rhythm of the waves and the freedom of the open sea define my existence. Join me as I navigate the currents of this new adventure, where every day brings the promise of discovery and the exhilaration of living life on the water.
