The Croatians know how to party. And they know how to sail. Put the two together with a bunch of young revellers from around the world and you have 2014 Croatia YachtLife.
From the pizza parties on the charterboats, with breakdancing on the high-gloss teak tables, to the bikinis in Split and the donkeys or asses in Starigrad; from the raft-ups and bombs in Hvar to the beach bars in Korcula; and from the Aussies cruising scooters to the ridiculous cockpit and cave raves in Makarska, this is the so-called YachtLife.
Of course, the boats have got very little to do with it. But as we head towards the end of 2014 and more and more people are celebrating on their boats, we thought it pertinent to embed some swashbuckling party footage from the 21st Century to get you in the mood.
YachtLife is also staged with charterboats in Turkey and Greece, while full-blown passenger ships takes things to the next level with other big quasi sailing raves.
Here's the after-party YachtLife clip to get you in the mood.
Happy New Year!
