Ivan Antisic

Growing up in a family that is one of the founders of nautical tourism in Croatia, Ivan Antišić could not go in any other direction in his life than in the direction of the sea and sailing. For more than 30 years now the sea and the boats have been the center of his universe.

He was working as the skipper on large sailing yachts, technical director of a yacht company, fishermen and the owner of the fishing boat so he got to know the sea and nautical tourism from all perspectives. This gave him the experience needed to step into nautical tourism on his own.

With fresh ideas and gained experience, he built two new ships and reconstructed one from the ground up, always bringing innovations to Croatian nautical tourism, proving himself to be an excellent host.

He did the same thing with his new project – classic motor yacht Gallant. He wanted to bring life back into a wooden ship and give him new meaning and purpose. Starting only from the hull he built an almost new ship with one and only goal - to provide guests with a new level of luxury. And with more than 30 years of experience in hospitality industry he was just the right person to do that. In the meantime, he decided to gradually leave everything in the hands of young forces, trying to slowly train them and pass on to them the experience he had accumulated over the years. Therefore, now on Gallant he is Duje’s right hand.
Ivan’s hobbies are cooking and oenology so he enjoys he can show his guests Croatia from this perspective.
