Nava Boats Croatia
Nautika Centar Nava, or as some know it: Nava Boats started as a charter business back in 1990. We believed then, and we still do, that everybody should enjoy boating. In the newly established free market, we were one of the first companies in Croatia that offered boats for charter.
Later, we expanded our business with boat sales and a Volvo Penta Center. Today we are the authorized dealers of some of the world’s most renown boat manufacturers: Beneteau, Lagoon, X-Yachts, Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, Riviera Luxury Yachts, Tiwal sailing dinghies, and Saxdor Yachts.
Nava business
In brief, the three core business activities of Nava Boats are Boat Charter, Boat Sales, and Volvo Penta center. These three co-exist and complement each other. It’s the full service we provide that makes us a trustworthy partner.
Indeed, we are your boating embassy in Croatia because we are experts on;
- Brokerage – buying a pre-owned boat or selling one can be hassle-free
- Assistance and Consulting regarding all aspects of boat purchase or sale. Everything from boat transport, import, registration, all legal and/or financial issues, insurance, mooring, boating equipment, and all modifications that you might need on a boat, etv.
- After-sales – equipping your boat with everything you might wish. For example, if you need cushions, awnings, winches, gennakers. Even minor layout modifications are our specialty. Moreover, our electrician, carpenter, plastics molder, and engine service are here to indulge your needs.
