The Boat & Crew
Our Story
A Virginia family, a Hunter 31, and a few hundred miles of Chesapeake waterway — that's the story of Jadran II. Friends came aboard, seasons passed, and the Bay became a second home.
We've since moved on to a new boat, but Jadran II earned her place in the logbook. From lazy afternoons on Herring Bay to multi-day runs down the Eastern Shore, she was exactly the right boat at the right time. We look back on those years with nothing but gratitude.

The Jadran Fleet
Jadran is the Croatian word for the Adriatic Sea. It's the name we've given every boat we've owned — a small nod to our roots, and a reminder of why we sail.
