The traveling for me has not yet come to an end. I am preparing to go to Palma de Mallorca to inspect the charter fleet based in the Balearics. You can find some more information on chartering a luxury yacht in the Balearics on our website.
In the picture you see MY Mizar, one of the yachts I will be seeing and many others that are permanently based in Palma and are legal to charter in Spanish waters.
Spain has a special stipulation for yachts and commercial activities. Therefor any yacht willing to take on paying charter guests has to have a special charter license. Consequence is that the owner has to charge 16% VAT on the charter fee. or many years the charter industry has been lobbying to change this situation and bring it in line with the French and Italian situation but until the law is changed we can only offer yachts that are legal to charter in Spanish waters. Luckily the fleet is growing every year. The number of yachts and the quality is absolutely increasing.I shall report back with my findings and some real gems that are still available for this summer!
Having lived and sailed in Palma de Mallorca for 6 years I can wholeheartedly recommend the Balearics as charter destination and we know where to go and what to do!
