English
"The Salona 45 is a modern racer/cruiser. It's a new design from a new company, the first of this Croatian builder's line to enter the U.S. market. On deck it's obvious that this plumb-bowed craft is firmly situated at the performance end of the design spectrum, especially when the deck-box stern seat is removed to expose an open transom and make space for a racing crew." ~ Sail
Having sailed Ursa from Corsica to Tenerife in the Canary Islands, I can attest to the performance, comfort and ease of handling of this specific boat. Equipped for shorthanded sailing with the lines coming aft to the cockpit, electric winch and autopilot this boat is fun and manageable. With that said, having 4 cabins (1 with an over and under bunk) Ursa is an incredible platform for a large group of friends, an extended family of just a couple.
Salona 45
"The Salona 45, designed by J&J Designs, is a true performance-cruiser. Stiff and powerful, yet responsive in light winds. The Salona 45 has "water tight" bulkheads (using glands to house the passing wires). The Salona 45 has been built with multiaxial hand laminated GRP sandwich construction (AIREX and PVC closed cells). The first layers of laminate have been made with vinylester resin, giving the perfect anti-osmosis protection to the hull. The Salona 45 offers a... four cabin layout with two heads. Beautifully varnished light American cherry-wood furniture makes the living environment functional and spacious. High quality gloss varnish application perfectly matches the comfortable surroundings below deck. The... four cabin versions will perfectly suit the needs of the 6 or 8 people crew."
