Split MCI Shipyard

A busy and convenient shipyard

MCI stands more Marine Club International, however, do not be mistaken, it is a shipyard, not a marina.

Once you have set your expectations right, it is a great place to have your boat overhauled. It is incredibly busy. During the peak season, they move around 20 boats per day. There are no facilities because it is a shipyard. You have to take care when you move around. The place is not clean like a marina would be. But the work gets done, honestly, and well.

It is always exciting and terrifying to see your boat, your home, hanging from a crane. Everything can go bad in a moment. You don’t know whether you want to see, or it is better to be somewhere else. Everything was good this time. Finally, I managed to stop using precarious ladders to get on and off of our boat.
