As Douchy as it gets but still worth it

Croatia is the original and largest. There's a Greece route and a couple of others now. Considering the Greece one. Seems slightly less crazy. Mid-30's and a dad bod might make me a poor fit...

Own the dad bod.

Ya it was great. I went with my girlfriend, so didn't participate in the hook up culture, but everyone is banging everyone if you're up for that. Good vibes, good music, good time overall

Yacht Week BVIs is more chill, AMAZING sailing/water and American heavy. Lots of consultants or MBA students. I don't know if I could survive Croatia, but BVI's was 100% worth it and will be a great memory forever.

This conversation happened a few days ago. I've done it. It's amazing and what you make it. If you go with a tight budget it can be lame counting pennies. If you for a blast it's an amazing time. Spent $4k on the ground between yacht Expenses, food, and 🍹🍺🥃

Posted this in another yacht week thread; everyone is hot and good looking. Everyone. Bro culture is extremely prevalent, tons of drugs, drinking, and sex

BCG2 I loved BVI more than Croatia. Think white sand beaches, tiki huts, bob Marley... it was awesome and def less clubby than Croatia .. still a huge party though :)

Had some friends who went- apparently a blast

I just did Greece! Highly recommend and the dad bod thing is definitely no issue

I did one in Greece on medsailors. I thought it was a blast but my friends and I rented out one whole yacht. So essentially we just hung out and got drunk. It was less crazy than yacht week from what I've heard. Definitely recommend.
